'that' being???

I agree about timing, regardless of what it is bad timing for. Hivemind just came out, and communities and the rest are just around the corner.

I hope.

More importantly, this whole thing could cause Ned to decide to keep MIRA exclusive to Steem or even to Steemit Inc. It's an obvious reply to the threat of a true fork: go ahead and try to run your own chain that's twelve times as expensive as ours.

They aren't obligated to make that development available to anyone else, or to release it under the same license as past updates. But this would be disastrous to everyone's growth.

Let's hope that @ned is above being so triggered by present circumstances, and that no further insults are piled on the extant injury, because that is very true.

Thanks!

That, meaning forking out the Ninja stake.

Ah! I could not more strongly agree. Optics could also hardly be worse.

This kerfuffle is a shitshow, for sure.

Thanks!
