Sort:  

it is not about ninja mined steem per se. steemit had an unfair advantage in that mining so they got shit ton more than others (there was also a restart at day one or two because some problems, and some speculate that steemit had some problems with mining so they did not do as well as they thought. not confirmed). and they said it will not be used for voting and influencing witnesses.

The problem is that that is the excuse being put out that the ninja mined stake is stolen, that is what is used to get users behind this soft fork, but that means Justin bought stolen property, how can you reach a deal with someone who is known to be the owner of stolen property? Seems unethical to me.

well i feel that the main point in this was not stolen (it was mined in a bit shady conditions and therefore promised to be used for development and so) , it is misused.

Well we shall see, but actually what I have read is that it is considered to be stolen.
