exyle you can worry of course but when I began with steem I read that if steemit.com goes down other apps just takes over. Same as the rpc's we run the backbone so steem doesn't die was my opinion then. Ned does this to assure that the blockchain is still going to work talking also about hivemind. I say don't worry too much. Now he has more power to get through the winter he doesn't giveup. Good for you to jump into this to help, and you know what I powered up today some of my bought steem. I'm here to stay i wont go away.. keep your head up exyle.
