Every day we get a little more info regarding the Steem/Tron Partnership, the latest being a YouTube video...
Justin Sun posted a new video to his YouTube account this morning.
The video can be seen here:
The video mentions old steem coin being exchanged for new steem coin on the Tron blockchain...
Should we be concerned?
Perhaps, but not because of this video.
The video may have been posted today, but it looks like it is basically an exact copy of that original announcement made several days ago.
Back before Sun seemed to back off his coin swap/exchange comments...
Watch the video for yourself and then read this:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@jrcornel/big-news-steemit-steem-joining-tron-ecosystem
This part especially reads exactly like the YouTube video:
"Together, TRON Foundation and Steemit Inc. will look to create further value for their users and to augment their advancements in decentralized technologies, including moving old STEEM token to a new TRON based STEEM token, giveaways to the existing TRX users with the new TRON based STEEM token, as well as a new accelerator program towards the developer community."
Apart from that first sentence I believe the rest is word for word.
So, while it is still unclear exactly what is going on, I wouldn't read into that latest YouTube video as being any new information.
It looks like it was someone just reading the original announcement and it just happened to be posted today.
Stay informed my friends.

To tell you the truth, I am not comfortable at all.
It's understandable, there is a lot of conflicting information out there...
I do not like listening to a video of a dude with a cartoon lion face. Are we 5 years old?
I also think the video is nothing to worry about at the moment. I did a post today explaining why Steem most likely wont get merged into Tron from a developer point of view. Justin maybe thought that Steemit is a proprietary website with a token, where in fact Steem is a blockchain of its own, and Steemit just a DApp running on it.
Yea the video looks like it was mostly just a re-telling of the news that was already out there. Just happened to be posted today.
Sounds to me like they are telling the truth. He is not an idiot, if he says old steem will be swapped, then it will!
Youtube and almost everything on it is cause for concern lol
Why is that?
Quick everyone light their hair on fire and run screaming! Sell everything on this market dip! We are Dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooomed I tell you!
Are steem blockchain decentralize or not if steem blockchain is decentralize and open source why who are worried?
new coin?...when?
Look at BTT token. If the new STEEM token will be airdropped to TRX users will have to increese the supply... doesn't sound good!
I have long wondered why witnesses don't decline payment on most of their posts? They are extremely well paid in comparison to authors yet they somewhat double dip by also taking from the author reward pool.
