The Facebook Strikes Back!

Facebook is Preparing to Destroy Steemit

How It All Began

I don't have much time. I think He is on to me. But the message must get out. A few months ago @Dan, @Ned and a handful of clever people created this thing called Steemit. But they were a little too clever. Steemit grew. At first they tried to control it, limiting user signup, pretending accounts were hacked, but Steemit continued to grow. To gain new users who abandoned their Facebook accounts.

Eventually the Great Giant know as Facebook took notice. And He was not happy. And He made plans.

Plan To Destroy Steemit

Many have died to get these plans to me and now I am passing them on to you before it's too late.

Oh wait, sorry. That's an old slide from a presentation I gave at the 2012 Underpants Gnomes World Dominion Conference.

Let's see.... ah here it is, Facebook's plan to destroy Steemit:

1. Create thousands of Steemit accounts called Anti-minnows.
2. Buy up all the cheap Steem and SBD.
3. Use the Steem and SBD to create a few Anti-whales and Anti-dolphins.
4. Begin a massive down voting campaign on Steemit.

The Details (of the Plan (to Destroy Steemit))

1. Create thousands of Steemit accounts called Anti-minnows.

Since one of the easiest ways to create a new account on Steemit is to signup with a Facebook account, Facebook will easily be able to create thousands of new Steemit accounts. These new accounts, or Anti-minnows, as The Plan refers to them will invade Steemit and downvote everything in sight. Causing mass confusion and mayhem.

2. Buy up all the cheap Steem and SBD.

Right now for just over $550,000 you can buy on the various exchanges enough Steem and SBD to power up over 200,000 Steem. Facebook is worth BILLIONS. Spending half a million dollars to enact this plan is nothing to them. It's like maybe the Executive Dining Room will have to server domestic caviar instead of Beluga next month.

3. Use the Steem and SBD to create a few Anti-whales and Anti-dolphins.

With all that Steem, they will be able to power up a couple of Anti-whales and several Anti-dolphins. These super anti-accounts will be able to attack the high earning quality posts that we all love on Steemit. Like the cleavage rich #introduceyourself posts that get so much attention.

4. Begin a massive down voting campaign on Steemit.

Once the massive downvoting begins and users find that all their posts are hidden or reduced to pennies in value, well Cartman said it best...

It's Up To You Now

Spread the word. Sound the alarms. Get the warning out. I won't be able to contact you again. I know He is coming for me. Good Luck, it's up to you now.
