RE: Jerry Banfield sold his witness account and is now producing

in #witness6 years ago

If he gave you the master keys and you became 100% owner of the account and witness it'd be a whole different ballgame than him just paying you to run it and still pocketing the block rewards. I get why, we all have bills. The greatest issue here is he's still the owner and the witness is fully under his control. He can bite down on his dick extra hard one day, get pissed, shut you out and then what? No one doubts your competence but everyone doubts his sanity.

some people thought this wast the case and have a problem with it.

shut you out and then what?

So he changes his keys and starts up his server elsewhere? Then it would just by as if he turned it back on himself. He has no access to the server and all he can do is either stiff me on the STEEM or change his keys.

Why are you trusting him not to stiff you? All in all, the point to all this drama is he is back in the witness game. Whether you're running it or not has nothing to do with it since it's his account. If you shut down the server he'll just hire another dev. Doubt he ran it himself originally in the first place. You being honest about it and announcing it just served yourself a plate of shit for no reason.

I'd rather be honest and receive all this trash talk than to try and hide it just to save face. I believe witnesses need to be transparent no matter what the cost.

I wish all the best to the people tossing mud at me for my choice. They are allowed to have an opinion as well as the rest of us.
