The moniker of hacker has become ubiquitous in our techcentric lives and more often than not is portrayed as a savvy, too cool for school personality that may or may not have much of a moral compass.. Pesky and malleable the hacker thrives in a catch me if you can loop and excels at the Houdini disappearing act.. They tend to want nothing more than to get in, funk shit up, and get out before being noticed..
Recently Justin Sun, "long live the Justinintian age" (this slogan must now be repeated whenever emperor's name is mentioned) anyway, our fearless leader took to twitter to lay to waste any claims that he acted dishonorably by the swift removal of the steem "hackers".
Unintentionally, he gave the goof troop formerly known as consensus witnesses far too much credit than they deserve by labeling them as hackers.. In a typically not well thought out move the now defunct and totally impotent stakeholding top 20 witnesses assumed putting Mr. Sun "long live the Justintian age" into check would somehow cause him to quiver in his boots.. Having no real leverage this ridiculous posturing forced or rather gave the new stinc man in charge ample "justinification" to promptly get techy wit it and refork the chain putting the hackers of steem into checkmate..
The incompetence demonstrated by the hasty implementation of a foolhardy soft fork has destroyed any semblance of hope in the old guard. Nothing has changed for vast majority of steemians except that there finally exists a potential to utilise the positive aspects of this blockchain. Obviously it's the tech not the fledgling ecosystem that can be fortified, replaced, and grown exponentially by having funding and a gangster boss.. I was elated to see all the losers resigning and or relegated to their rightful place of having the level of little to no influence they have long deserved..
It was wrong of Justin "long live the Justintinian age" to call these imbeciles lacking any foresight or guile hackers but I'm not going to get pedantic about the proper nomenclature applied to people that will have no bearing or weight on the future of this blockchain..
A more appropriate term perhaps would be "lackers" because they ain't shit, never will be, and have now had their crybaby asses served up with a warm glass of shut the fuck up..
mic drop
The only ones crying about it are the only ones making anything here. I think it takes something like this to make it better. I for one support the community. But this was some kind of evil genius move and has a wack smell too it. Welcome the hardfork its time for change. Then we could careless if Tron keeps the sister chain he thinks he bought and we can sit back and it will be popcorn time for awhile. Either way its a good thing and has shaken the entire crypto space up and all will be watching and learning for this experience as dapps and users pick and choose where to land.

Totally agree 🍿 time
I welcome changes but I hope it doesn't split.
It would probably more less be the end for the old witness ran chain( I think we would see a further continued drop in value of steem and at some point there would be no financial incentive there ( and a lot of the people who obviously aren't there for the money :) would simply leave)
Also it would take the a while for the Tron based one to build up user base considering part would leave
So basically we can have a win win or a loose loose .
As I have a great financial interest in steem( lol my wallet was worth about $5 before it got recently robbed by @glitz,@lordless or under whatever account the thieving cunt is now hidding) I hope for the win win.

Big talk for someone with any account worth $50 lol
Well the funny thing is I am in the green not underwater in a shit show... And so fucking what boss?
In the Green you say?
Yes you fucking idiot.. I never bought any steem I've cashed out about 350 USD value of btc dealing with morons like yourself
What's the size of wallet got to do with anything?
Or u think having more money should give u more rights?in which case u are contradicting itself( hopefully u can see that.
Ye great future for steem turn it into a despotic shithole where u can treat people however u like as long as ur bank account is big enough.
Ye that's gonna drive mainstream adoption!
I guess you missed the last month of use case examples on how the amount of Steem power you have drastically effects your voting weight on the network.
The Steem Power system is litterally a system that rewards you based on vested shares you give to authors, litterally applying the logic that the more Sterm you have Powered up, will give you more leverage, or as you have put it rights.
Just for a case study, most people who know what steem is, have accepted it for payment as a service or have managed an escrow system that would produce more than the $3 you have accumulated.
I joined in 2016, when I started to use the front end to blog in 2018 I managed to accumulate over 4500 by blogging and trading the Steem with Steem Dollars.
If you just want to use steem as a blog that's fine, but dont come around pretending you know what DPOS is when you clearly dont. Steem is revolutionary and deserves more intellectual capacity than you have demonstrated, there is so much to learn here.
I think the soft fork was brilliant, not by design but it had some unintended consequences. It forced Justin's hand and he colluded to use exchange funds with his buddies to pull off this coup d'etat.
Steem doesn't have a rep it just has some wackdoos running around so we have nothing to lose, they however put themselves into the firing line and I for one say rek the bastards. I never liked Tron or Binance and if it takes steem being destroyed to take those dudes done, I'm game!
I'm all for a complete shake up..
Let slip the dogs of war, I got nothing to lose, if I can knock a few millions off someone elses net worth why not?
If ever you feel small or insignificant, remember what it's like trying to sleep in a room with a mosquito!
Ye but the mosquito often ends being splattered on the wall!

Always mate, I cannot close my eyes until I know I've eradicated the parasitic lil dickhead 😂
Brilliantly written.
Much appreciated! Things have since changed and I'm not sure which witnesses I can trust after causing such a stink over Justin doing the same exact thing our former anonymous lord of the chain freedom has always done. (maybe they're back in the saddle)? Save the difference we know who Justin is and we don't know freedom or the details of why his witnesses are fine with one central figure over another. One can assume freedom allows them a bit of revenue for staying in line..
The whole argument that stinc funds were allocated for the development and decentralising aspects of steem is a moot point. Look around 😂 no developments no decentralization, no value, no nothing really in 4 years except an exit scam and a, team of resignations that couldn't see the writing on the wall..
