Fellow Steemians,
it seems quite a lot has happened over the night and I'm getting updated as fast as possible.
Most notably, quite a lot of people have been voting for witnesses over the past couple of hours, which is amazing as the difference between Steemit Inc's stake & the community is shrinking! And that's exactly what we need right now.
I also noticed that a lot of people voted & un-voted my witness. I'm guessing the unvotes happened due to my witness being disabled over the night.
Rest assured, I was simply replaying my witness node (technical term for updating) and I'm back again.
Most importantly: I'm running the pre-soft fork version (0.22.1), but with a little twist => version number as 0.22.333. Most other witnesses seem to run the same, just with the version number 0.22.4444.
Now, I made the decision not to use the number 4444 (instead opted for 333), as I'm familiar with the asian culture and about the meaning of numbers there, notably 4 - often referring to "death". And I don't think our cultural background should have anything to do with the current situation.
With this said: if you want to vote for me again; the easiest way would be through my website:
Last but not least, it seems that the most important people at Steemit Inc gave their resignation. (
On the one hand, I'm proud of their courage, but it does make me quite angry towards 
At this point, it seems that many cards are on the table, but most importantly: the community is standing strong.
Personally, I would still like to see a future where Tron and Steem can both benefit, but I guess we have to see what the reality is.
Finally, I'm very grateful for many Steemians being active on Twitter and while all of this is disturbing to witness, it is cool to see that Steem seems to be everywhere in crypto-twitter. (Vitalik & co. tweeting).
With that said: Steem on!
