Those are front end developers .. big difference. There are only a few devs who can work on the chain (C++) and most are Steemit inc employees.
Many witnesses seem displeased with this announcement.. honestly I think we will see just how decentralized Steem is.. as if justin owns the Steemit inc stake, he can easily control consensus. So yes, wait and see indeed
it is going to be a fun weekend for sure.
Getting some devs for Steem 2.0 could be easy. Some that work for Steemit might not want to work with Tron, or they might not be needed by Tron? Maybe we could hire Dan Larimer, I wonder what happened to him :)
To my eye the witnesses need to fork out the steemit stake and do it now, before they can get compromised.
