I like this viewpoint. It makes a great deal of sense.
Yes, I can see Steemit, which is in financial hot water, being sold. It makes sense for both parties. To further expand, I did see a resteem by Andrachy yesterday by Andrarchy so he was online yet mum is the word, obviously.
The rumors has to be a great thing for Steem even if they do not go through. This is where word can spread quicker than all the marketing in the world. News is the best form of marketing.
