Shady behavior by Tron and the exchanges

1. Exchanges are not powering down; which means they believe there is a quicker way to get funds liquid again, and they are banking on that "method" whatever it is

2. During the meeting, that Roy dude kept insisting on a quick power down, as if that's the only way forward.

3. He also hid behind the "threat" of a hard fork during a powerdown, when that threat still exists even before a power down.

4. He acted as if the funds are theirs or something, but they're actually funds owned by the Steem community members and forking those away will be forking away the stake of our own. Why would we do that?

5. @themarkymark was spot on with his questions. Roy just laughed, said something about sarcasm and went on about "how we want a safe way forward" while it was staring them in the face.

To them powering down is not a way forward.

With the current stalemate, we are in a better position to play the time game than the exchanges. The exchanges can either powerdown or vote again to force a hardfork, which is what I suspect they are planning to do. Not sure which ones will be brave/reckless enough to do that.

I don't see why we should accede to any of their demands/requests. I don't think it falls within the scope of decentralized governance to change the rules of the blockchain (and expose everyone to systemic risk) in order to reverse voluntary actions taken by a few accounts to power up "their own" STEEM.

Using SteemPeak from now on
