@sherlockholmes, first off thanks for all the work you do for the community!
With these "nets" being (potentially) worth as much as you are reporting here, I can't help but wonder how many of Steemit's "inactive" accounts (i.e. account created but never used even ONCE) are actually "sleepers" that can come to life at a moment's notice?
Which begs a secondary question... of whether it should be written into the base code somehow that "unused" accounts are automatically purged from the system after 3 or 6 months of never having been used. Purpose would be two-fold... genuinely abandoned accounts would stop taking up database space and "sleeper" accounts might force their owners into visibility, so they could be dealt with.
This sounds like an interesting thought and I hope you will carry this discussion on!
