Weekend, Corona and Steem's Demise
It's weekend in a world with a third of the global population under lockdown. Or at least some kind of it.

But without any community and without the decentralization to truly protect funds, the Steem blockchain holds no value, whatsoever. I always thought that a 51 % attack is kinda rare and Steem is mostly save. That was naive and wrong.
For Steem I only have one plan left:
Also to kill some time, you can watch some shorts on youtube. One great short film I have found is the following. Enjoy.
