Thank you, I appreciate that. I was worried about losing people in the weeds. Yes, I had questioned some more experienced Steemians a few years back about what would happen if a competitor like Facebook would simply purchase a super-majority stake in Steem or any DPOS.
One of the answers I got was "Steem would activate their full stake to defend the chain" or the blockchain would simply fork as that feature which ensures decentralizations. Well, at the time I couldn't have predicted that a blockchain company would be the one to actually hijack the blockchain using the "ninja mined stake". I always assumed it would be an outside force. Yet, after all the drama a fork finally did happen in reaction to the threat, so maybe it's a positive take away from this situation.
