It's a sorry state of affairs that is seems to have come to this. I have raised concerns over the steemit premine several times. My biggest concern has always been that. On the new chain, I think it is imperative to do an analysis on how much premined accounts have taken out so that those that got into this with the best intentions, who have not cashed out or are founders (especially ned and dan) are compensated. I don't know yet whether I would support a fork or not, it rather depends on how it is dealt with, how fair I perceive the distribution to be, how well looked after the founders are etc. I am certainly not against examining the possibility, especially if at the same time we can address legal issues, flaws resulting from distribution and technical aspects all at the same time.
The utility of steem and the community should be the greatest concern for us all.
>got into this with best intentions > DanHHAHHA, Ever wonder how almost everyone talking positively about Dan have a vested interest in one or more of his projects, or just a complete newbie who thinks Dan , the anarcho capitalist, aiming to secure life and liberty for all, will "revolutionize" the finance and tech sector. Just lol
Oh, and EOS is a complete joke as well
on his "rebuttal" against Vitalik's criticisms of EOS :
Not even exaggerating when I call him a shameless conman, people outside of steemit are literally laughing at the platform (and eos) and its founders.
Its a nice and innovative concept, but run by some really shitty people
EOS sounds like just another shady scam by a bunch of shady nerds, just like steemit (let a few insiders in first, let insiders build power/influence/vests, then let the general public in so those same few insiders can use and abuse the noobies for their own profit/gain while convincing said noobies they are part of something special that may make them rich some day)....
No thanks. I think I'd rather risk any potential investments I may make with the upcoming independent steem fork (free from Stinc) - Calibrae
