Whether you call it a "moon" or a "ricochet", a dead-cat bounce, or anything else you can think of, both Steemit and Steem days are nearly over.

The reality is that because of extremely poor management on the part of the Steem/Steemit teams, the company nearly went bankrupt last year, and yet other than making a few changes such as getting rid of 70% of its employees, it continued down the same road with the same failed business plan. And guess what? Failure again! No surprise there! This time however the company was forced to relinquish all or nearly all of its assets to Tron. Now this may seem like a big deal for some Steem/Steemit die-hards, as well it should be, because their power and corruption opportunities are quickly coming to an end. This especially applies to @themarkymark, his sidekick @buildawhale, and a few others who chose to abuse their downvoting power to silence those that they did not agree with. In other words they wanted to censure and silence those who had opinions which differed from their own, yet still openly allow the Steemit platform to become infested with porn, and other such filth. It's no wonder that Steemit's membership numbers were in such rapid decline.

Thank you @themarkymark! You were willing to put Steemit out of business, even though you were a Steemit witness, rather than change your ways and play the "curator game" fairly for everyone, not just for a handful of top assholes like yourself who reaped over 99% of the rewards, leaving virtually nothing for the majority of Steemit members. Congratulations! You were truly one of the biggest slimballs of them all.

As for Tron, this deal is only small potatoes, and yet Steemit as we now know it, will cease to exist, as will most if not all of its former witnesses. Tron is now taking control, and with it, a lot of major changes will be coming. The writing has been on the wall for the last couple of years. All any reasonable person needed to do was read it.
