RE: Progress being made

in #steem5 years ago

@justinsunsteemit one of my concerns about this acquisition of Steem (besides the hostile and aggressive way in which it transpired) is that you operate another blockchain (Tron). How will you maintain two projects at the same time and do you view Steem as a competitor to Tron or more of its own niche thing? I am curious how you reconcile decisions for two projects in the crypto sphere when it comes to listings, partnerships and value.

As someone who has been a part of this community and worked on the development side of things, working with the Steem Engine team to build features that Steemit Inc dragged the chain on, I would hate to see it all thrown away. One of my biggest concerns is Tron being pushed down our throats, especially when it comes to new features on the Steem blockchain. As someone who has worked with Ethereum and experimented with Tron, I find the Steem developer experience to be unrivalled. Not need to install compilers and virtual machines to build dApps, just use an SDK and away you go.

I would love to see new listings on exchanges, I would love to see smart contracts, smart media tokens and everything else that the failed leadership over at STINC has been promising for years. But, if those changes come at the cost of the integrity of the blockchain, fragmentation of our community and disrespect for the witnesses who keep this place running, no thanks.
