RE: "You can't use your ninja-mined stake unless you use it on us"

Can you please source this information, me and the author of this post would both like to see the fine print you're quoting, because I remember something very differently worded but using a few of the same words you use.

    Happy to oblige, here is one of multiple instences of him making this promise.

    "In a further motion of decentralization, the Steemit, Inc. controlled primary account, @steemit, which holds approximately 41% of the platform’s Steem Power, will be gradually divested of its holdings in an effort to increase promotion and development of the platform while dispersing voting power. Scott indicated that this will be done in a “gradual multi-year divestment”."

      Justin Sun did not want to decentralize the voting power.

      I want to sympathize with Justin as a libertarian, but be did not respect the decentralized aspect of that statement when he used he sock puppets

      Up until the moment the sock puppet accounts were voted for, even making them is fine, voting for them with Steem Inc is the violation, that is not decentralized, that is a group of witnesses controlled by 1 accounts vote.

      1 vote, vs 180,000.

        Assuming Ned never mentioned the steemit stake was promised to be used for development then I too sympathize with Justin. But he needs to be going after Ned for that, not the community.

        I agree with you, I can see you deeply care about steem and will respond so I will follow you and debate you on future topics.

        Justin is in fact the victim here.

        I have heard he wants out and I'd rather see @ned in court over the community suffering.

        Maybe @ned should just pay reparations for any damages done since crypto is getting serious, with his pay grade and net worth now, no one will doubt his ability to reimburse any victim of his entrepreneurial decisions, which he is responsible for to the fullest extent of the law being at the level these boys are trading at.
