RE: Crush the sun...vote for witness
If anything this has really got us hyped up and it's amazing to see what the power of the collective can do, I don't think his going to give up but we will keep pushing. I think this shows why decentralisation is so important and worth fighting for
For sure, I didn't think it was possible to get almost everyone to put their differences aside and stick togehter for a common goal, we're making crypto history. I bet there is a few watching steem in the background now. It is important fight that will set a a certain standard and good to see the weak points of decentralization early in the game.
I agree with you the message we setting out is clear that this is a community blockchain! Other chains no one cares about to be under threat or are centralized so no one really cares! It’s totally history in the making and this small community was able to push back on the biggest exchange in the world and it also shows that Throwing money at something only gets you so far in a decentralized space and that’s a good thing
This is one of the reasons we want to move to this type of governance
Agreed!!It may be hard for one big player but if anything, we came close and is a potential future threat that remains. We are at a stalemate for now with still a good number of puppet witnesses remaining but at least they can't implement anything either, we'll have to learn to somehow work together. I also noticed some exchanges have started to power down. Hopefully there is no fork to let em off the hook easy and they learn from their mistakes using other investors funds without permission.
I also don’t want this to result in a fork, I think that it’s exposed a big hole in our setup as you say and I see people already speaking about how to fix it with less witness votes, or the longer you stake/power up the more power your vote holds and I’m sure we’ll find a combination that works!
Rather find these things out now when we’re small than when we adopt more people
