RE: A perfect storm of disasters

Maybe it was due to language but it seemed to me that you initially came to the table with actual requirements, rather than opening negotiations.

Of course, when discovering you hold a decisive stake, there can be a tendency to use that power.

Otherwise, I think the Korean community is a very valuable player in the Steem community. I definitely would have liked to see more Korean witnesses (before acquisition). Maybe it could have led to the dialogue we never had but needed for thriving governance.

A split has now been reached and now you are now an absolutely defining player in the community. Defining in campaigning to keep as many users and dapps as possible, as well as onboarding new members. Here's hoping that STEEM will continue to be a diverse and engaged community. Not a localized one.

PS: I massively respect the decision to support 7 human witnesses to maintain a temporary status quo. Hats off.
