This Dlive deal is nothing more of a backstab to the community in exchange for some of those 20m Lino got to create a new YouTube and I don't think this is a conspiracy theory at all, this has been on the works since at least March and there are a few post around showing how the creator of lino and the creator of dlive are school buddies.
This is nothing short of a Chinese buyout of the company and a backstab to the whole steem community... Now Vimm is rising to prominence and they promised that they would never leave the blockchain so I have my hopes there...
Nice work sitting thought that AMA and writing this up, they took it down because they know it was a mess.
