I still don't understand why you are trying to make this so complicated. Hive was a legal split amd the creation of a new asset. Steem's HF23 illegally siezed assets. It doesn't matter if the witnesses agreed it was okay or not.
Steem doesn't exist in a vaccuum. I'm not sure dpos is the ideal system to allow witnesses to have the final say and be unaccountable for their actions. What is stopping them from voting away dpos?
If the Steem witnesses are held severely accountable for their crime, witnesses on other dpos chains such as Hive will reconsider any intentions of breaking laws.
This is far more valuable than some silly ideal that we are a sovereign nation. Remember most nations are completely messed up despite having much more experience, resources, talent and authority than Steem or Hive. Sorry to belittle Steem or Hive, but comparing 20 mostly anon witnesses to national governments is ridiculous. Even the largest corporations are hardly comparable since they onpy seem focused on profit.
Hive took some of the centralized aspects of Steem, but got rid of others. Shedding some toxic baggage (steemit, fools who supported steemit, justin sun) was great, but maybe not enough.
Originally, mining Steem wasn't done fairly, especially by Steemit. The reward pool is better, but we all know this is exploited a lot, too.
Steem was a great experiment and Hive is the continuation of this experiment. We will all gain from the experience.
I've come to the co conclusion that we probably need some major governance changes. Fortunately this is planned on Hive and more discussion is taking place.
That said I'm glad you had this discussion and took the side of being ridiculous by arguing Steem didn't steal. Thought and debate is more important than being right. Changing and improving thought is good. Blah blah
If I become a top 20 witness a lot of the things I say will be the foundation for many of the decisions I make.
I mean... also... I write a blog and that blog generates an income... so there is that.
Yeah it is up for interpretation.
I've made that quite clear with pages and pages of writing.
Nice try.
Web 3.0 rules state it is not theft.
Web 2.0 rules state it is theft.
It's a matter of perspective.
Anyone who says otherwise doesn't have perspective.
Spoiler alert: bull-headed self-righteous trolls don't have any perspective.
Just in case you didn't realize due to all the bull-headed self-righteousness.
You lashing out like a child doesn't accomplish anything but satisfy the feeble mind of an insecure troll who has nothing better to do. Sick burn.
I'm clearly not a moron, and even if I was, you pointing it out would accomplish nothing but prove you for the dickhead that you clearly are. Wow, look at me I'm just full of zingers.

It is literally impossible for you to not write a response to this.
That's how weak-minded you are.
I wonder, what will you say this time? That is the only time I write #lastword, and you fall for it every fucking time it's hilarious.
