A new chapter...

avatar

I wanted to take a moment to let the Steem community know that earlier this afternoon I made the decision to resign from my position as Blockchain Engineer at SteemIt, Inc. This decision has been difficult for me to say the least; I am going to take a little time to myself and collect my thoughts.

Until then,
Steve

I am here with you guys.

We need majority Witnesses in the top 20 to win. These are the top 20 witnesses I can recall from before the fork.

Dang, another resignation. At this pace nobody will be left to develop anything in Steemit Inc. With the amateur github job TRON's people did, I doubt they have any future for their precious acquisition. Take care man, I hope to see you on the "other bright side" of the chain soon.

There are quite a few gambling applications on the steem chain. Wouldn't be surprised if sun is trying to corner that market as that is just about all Tron is used for.

Not only this post, also the post of their thoughts for the last softfork. It’s easy, until they finish the process of resign, they are still under tron employer rules: probably including how not to reveal much in their posts etc.

Understood. Respect and good luck in the future, Steve.

the crypto world is disgusting. People are bribed ... robbed or even threatened with weapons ... this is a world where a lot of money can be made. and sometimes people do something you don't believe ...

But I know one thing ... that Justin stands for something good and has a precise plan ... I trust him ... he's one of the good ones in this scene ...

Justin ... hats off ...

Holy crap why are all these Steemit people resigning? Do they hate Tron and its owner, were they coerced into leaving, were they actually fired? Anyone have thoughts on this? I just found out about this like five minutes ago and it's weird to say the least.

Because Ned sold his shares and Steemit to Justin Sun of Tron foundations, then Justin attempted (criminally) to takeover the Steem Blockchain. But we are taking it back. Be sure to use your witness votes so we can reverse what he has done. Easiest way is to proxy all your votes to a trusted Steemian. I trust @naturalmedicine. Here is how and why to do it: https://steempeak.com/hive-120078/@naturalmedicine/update-from-the-nm-core-team-community-love-and-a-call-to-action
