That helps a bit. I'm still a bit confused.
I don't understand why action needed to be taken against Justins newly acquired tokens in the first place?
The stuff with Huobi and Binance is absolutely ridiculous and probably illegal. I'm 100% against exchanges using user funds to vote.
But, I still don't see why the softfork222 was needed in the first place? Justin bought that stake. The whole point of this platform is stake weighted influence. It seems like a lot of people just didn't like him or just didn't trust him from the start so the witnesses decided to soft fork his funds to the freezer lol. Sure it wasn't "removed" per se. But, it was limited. Which is messed up. He owns that stake now. It's his private property to do with as he pleases. Which is hopefully in the best interest of the platform.
Am I missing something here? I'm just confused about why the soft fork was needed in the first place? Other than disliking the guy or not trusting him.
