Justin Sun, founder of TRON and CEO of Bittorrent has recently taken over Steemit Inc. and this news is definitely one of the biggest turning points in the history of the Steem Blockchain. The potential spin offs and opportunities for both Tron and Steem (as well as the dapps and communities running on these two chains) cannot be overstated.
OUR THOUGHTS
We think this event can help both STEEM & TRON grow together at a faster pace than their counterpart blockchain networks can do individulally. In the upcoming months, we will get more clarity about how this partnership will affect both of the communities and to what extent, but we are sure that it is a doorway to innumerable opportunities. We believe that this mutually beneficial partnership between TRON & Steemit Inc. will prove to be fruitful going forwards for the Steem blockchain. We would like to reassure the STEEM community that this change, although difficult to understand at the present time is going to be a win-win for all of us. STEEM brings its tech & highly active communities while TRON has the tech, network and resources which can help both of us co-exist in a bigger, connected CRYPTO world. Just imagine the possibilities! Together we can solve the problems which seem unsolvable in today's world.
Our no. one priority is to make a commitment to the Steem blockchain & the communities we all have built so far. That's precious! We trust the Steemit Inc. Team, the Top 20 Witnesses and all the Stakeholders to navigate us through this time of uncertainty in the best way possible. The Steem blockchain is at 3Speak's core technologically, and it is also in our hearts.
At this point in time we think that the potential positives far outweigh the negatives. Based on the AMA, with Justin and Ned recently, we can see a fruitful and positive future for both chains from what was said.
We would like to take this opportunity to welcome @justinsunsteemit and TRON community to STEEM - one of the ground-breaking social media ecosystems which is so much more than that. The biggest asset of STEEM is not the technology but the community. We sincerely believe and hope that under the leadership of Justin, Steemit Inc., will reach bigger and better milestones, in development and on-boarding more creators, developers, entrepreneurs and investors. There can be a mutually beneficial relationship between the two ecosystems.
We also encourage the Tron team, the Tron super representatives and the Steem witnesses to open a clear dialogue so that any doubts can be resolved and identifications of ways forward can be agreed upon.
Protect Your Content, Tokenise Your Communities! - 3Speak is a video hosting platform which advocates Freedom of Speech. It provides a censorship-free environment for content creators who have been deplatformed or demonetised on conventional social media websites, i.e. Facebook, Youtube etc. We are open for everyone and anyone. Creators can earn rewards in the form of STEEM Tokens or donations in our native SPEAK tokens.
(Soon to be upgraded to the Steem based Smart Media Token.)
We welcome the #TronArmy and #Tronians to try our platform and to help you get started, we have already pushed the following updates in the application:
- We will provide free instant STEEM accounts to TRON users who hold a balance of min. 3500 frozen TRX tokens (please stay tuned for more information coming about this soon)
- We have added TRX donations to our live stream Super Chats.
- We will soon add a TRON Wallet which will help you check your balance and send/receive your tokens.
- The TRON Token Utility will be integrated in the upcoming weeks. As well as this, ETH, BTC, NEO and other crypto currencies are in the pipeline to be integrated in the future.
We hope that this initiative will help the TRON community explore 3Speak, STEEM and other amazing DAPPs we have to offer. Please stay tuned for further updates!
LARGEST STEEM COMMUNITY:
3Speak’s platform is built with STEEM at its core. The recently released "Communities" feature is already implemented into 3Speak, we are eagerly waiting for SMTs to rollout.
- We remain committed to STEEM and our DApp will continue to run off the same blockchain as its features are perfectly suited for running 3Speak.
- We look forward to solidifying our integration of STEEM into the DApp while also adding unique features from the TRON Blockchain, such as smart contracts and Tron tokens.
- Our growth strategy has worked so far in on-boarding Talent from outside STEEM and retaing them during the bear markets. Now, with the TRON community backing STEEM, we will update our Roadmap to achieve bigger goals in 2020.

I just wonder how any system here can call itself "decentralized" if the
actions of one man/boy, can turn the whole community
upside down..?
Ain't that closer to a dictatorship?
If he tries anything than we make a fork, so it’s like a social contract. It becomes a loss for both the community and for Justin.
Not we. The witnesses can make a fork. But there are not that many of those.
Anyone can fork a coin. The witnesses can agree to fork without splitting the chain, to keep only one coin Steem.
Not on steem. AFAIK you need 20 witnesses to run a steem block chain. So we would need to become witnesses first before we can fork the chain.
Of course you could set up 20 sock puppet witnesses but who would want to use that chain? And it's still be witnesses.
Same for any other blockchain. You always need a sizeable group to add validity to your fork.
So not anyone can fork a coin. It takes a sizeable group to fork a coin.
At least 20 in the case of steem.
How is it different from when Ned had the power though? Isn't it just one dictator handing power to another? At least this one isn't fast asleep at the wheel.
I'm not saying I trust Justin, I don't know the guy, but Ned was clearly no good.
True, so Steemit was never really "decentralized"...
I agree for the most part....
https://steemit.com/steem/@ate-bit-dave/the-sacking-of-steem-the-rise-of-tron
I checked and resteemed your video ;)
It depends what mitigation’s our current steem witnesses put in place.
What "mitigations" could the witnesses "install" / "create" / "muscle" ?
I completely disagree. This is another fantastic development in the world of crypto and one of massive importance considering both firms track record paving the way in the world of crypto. This means it is yet another huge step forward in the way that the crypto world can become more innovative and productive towards legitimising the industry. It is hard to think of a better time, bar late-2017, to be part of the community. Is your comment to say that by coming closer together, those involved in the cryptocurrency industry are moving further away from the goals it was created to achieve? I for one will be getting closer involved in the projects that have now partnered up due to this news with the help of platforms like the ones that can be found at https://www.cryptimi.com/exchanges/best-bitcoin-exchanges where I can invest in these organisation's tokens with ease and this is what I would recommend for anyone else reading this news as opposed to feeling negative about the partnership.
I can think of reasons:
OK, OK, I took it as long as I could.
Socialism uses violence to coerce the people.
It is clearly defined.
Communism is a different word because it is a different concept.
Logical, yes?
https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/emma-goldman-there-is-no-communism-in-russia
Please refer to anyone forcing others to do things they don't want to do as socialusts.
Us communists will be over here peacefully cooperating us another world.
https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/alexander-berkman-what-is-communist-anarchism
You have been fed what you think on this subject to keep you from escaping.
Think about it.
Nothing surprising or new. I have said this many times. The adherents of the totalitarian systems who love communism, Bashar Assad, Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein and defend them in every way are concentrated at 3speak.
Dead people are concentrated at 3Speak?
3speak is heaven. Did you not know? :)
Sorry to be fully out of context here,
but please remove the badge from my user!
I used 3speak 1 time and I made a video about how much I don't like this platform. I am defintely not a 3speak user and I don't deserve nor want this badge!
Thank you!
Cool thx for the info!
Hi @threespeak
I agree with your point:
And I think this offer:
And These actions:
Are an very facilitative and positive approach to Our new situation.
Thank you for your positive efforts to welcome Tronians to Steemit and encouraging them to participate both in Steemit and Threespeak with this offer.
These actions help create a positive atmosphere for our community to engage with theirs.
Thank you,
👏👏👏

Thanks for sharing.... shocking!
I downvoted due the misleading title! The collaboration is between Steemit Inc and TRON... NOT STEEM... How hard is it to figure it out?
I would respectfully disagree there. It is correct to say that the Steem block chain has not been purchased by tron and therefore they do not own Steem, they own Steemit inc. but as far as collaboration goes, the two block chains are now learning about each other and dapps are staring to integrate beneficial features of each block chain, in the same way that steem dapps will integrate features from many other different block chains in future. I would say it is safe to call this a collaboration between the two chains, at least for now, until the dust fully settles. It’s better to give tron the benefit of the doubt. Even though Tron is clearly giving Steemit inc autonomy to act and build out its current scope, I would however, not necessarily call the work between tron and steemit inc a collaboration, since tron owns steemit inc. it is more of a business partnership.
"the two block chains are now learning about each other and dapps are staring to integrate beneficial features of each blockchain"
Are they though? Show me which Tron dapp is considering adopting anything related to steem? Or is that just expected from Steem dapps to do?
Exactly like Tron and Justin tweeted.
"Steem dapps moving to Tron".
Dlive is the only non-shit dapp Tron has anyways.
Lets not be damn fools..
May want to correct that in the first sentence of your own article too then :P :
It was done for emphasis, but fair point :))
Loool😂😂😂

Yeah I still don't understand these people! Steemit is a community, not just some company. They can buy the tech but not the people. We'll retaliate if they do token swap...
This is super exciting stuff. Welcome to the new age!! Pennsif was saying in one if his last news reports that the community members of Tron call themselves 'Tronics'. Maybe that's inaccurate. Does anyone know!!?
Elle No. From what i sense, the Steem community is ready to fork if needed. One thing is for sure we can't stop the becoming of the new way forward. But, we can choose where to focus our attention. I am glad to know you are on team decentralize. I suppose we'll just do this one step at a time. What do you think?
Good job everyone involved and exciting time on the crypto world for all

Way to go, guys!
JustinSun is a good marketer. His moves in marketing are phenomenal. He is able to bring forth the best out of his business. I believe we are heading for greater hieghts. The marriage between tron and steemit will increase the resilience of steem and we will all steep up together.
Sun bought steemit and not steem
This so grateful my brother
May the almighty God bless your hand abundantly.

I've just tried to upload a video and the message came through, 'encoding failed, please contact support'.
I have no idea how to contact support. (I can see no way to contact on the 3 speak page, should I say).
Thanks for any help.
ok, cheers.
No problem with the second attmepted upload, so it ok.
I am holding Steem and TRX for a while now.. I wonder what these two crypto's can do for each other in the future.. Upvoted & resteemed!!
Kind regards,
You have to hold How many 'frozen TRON' to get a free Steem account? Or you could just get a free Steem account the normal way I guess. Not getting the point of that.
Always supporting #TRX #STEEM and #threespeak
I look 3Speak's future is very bright.
Congratulations @threespeak!
Your post was mentioned in the Steem Hit Parade in the following categories:
Your post is so great boss !
This is really exciting. I am looking forward for the best marriage experience between Tron and steemit
I fear that the “not invented here syndrome” will prevent Tron from seeing the full potential of this merger and make them gut Steem for their own Blockchain.
There have already been announcements in that direction.
Thanks for this post.
@threespeak, Let's hope that after the Town Hall Session many aspects will be cleared and Steem and TRON can move forward with more clarity and collaborative ways. Stay blessed team.

Has 3speak stopped uploading properly?
A 4 minute video - taking about 36 years at the moment - nothing happening.
Ok, not 36 years, but it a looooooong time. You get the point.
edit : AAAAAAAAAAAAAnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd its uploaded!lol
I have confidence that what you propose will be, an alliance for entrepreneurship and steemit growth with the help of tron and step for each user of this beautiful platform, I reiterate that his words give me a lot of confidence that everything will be fine and This will be for the better. Greetings for you @threespeak

I think its good to have mutually beneficial partnership or collaboration between tron blockchain and steem blockchain community
@Threespeek should be censorship free must be decentralize and different than YouTube
Mutual benefits it is, but again panic is written all over the faces of steemians so further communication from diff communities on their willingness/readiness to adopt Tron would really wipe off the fears.
I did record my take on what awaits a s ahead, check it out here
Sheesh! now I dunno where and on what TV channel I'm gonna have to tune this thriller. On Pay-Per-View 3Speak or on Free-To-Air DLive with no rules, no payments & no TRX frozen in advance?
I'm ready for the shivers!!
The free accounts to frozen tron holders is just to limit the number of users that come across as bots, if we let anyone claim a free account, there is a chance that someone will write a bot to claim all of the free accounts. If we confirm that they have some frozen tron token, then it makes it economically more disadvantageous to just write a bot to claim all of the accounts. As a result it is more likely that more of the users who come across will be real people.
Also threespeak is not pay per view
At $0,020279 USD x TRX (3500 ~ $70.9765 USD) I can't see how you could avoid anyone can't claim all of your free accounts in a jiffy. Using bots or otherwise. };)
But yeah! seems like the ol' Bernie disagree. Hahahaha
PS. erm... btw @berniesanders... by chance your fat fingers clicked on the wrong 'upvote' button on your 'smartphone' on my previous comment? LoL
Yeah I know. The phrase Pay-Per-View was used here as an allegorical metaphor. :D
The Tron army are some active guys and I've been interacting with them regularly. @jtsofficial are huge on Twitter.
