You have misunderstood the question. I have never suggested in any way that even Steemit going under would result in the network being shut down. What I have assumed, quite correctly, is that development by Steemit Inc done on the blockchain has been severely curtailed with the shelving of SMTs that were supposed to be rolled out in March 2019.

Thanks for the clarification, i will try to read and understand it again
