Vlog 458: A new dawn, steem on!
I haven't been this pumped about Steem for a while.
After the interview with Andrew, I think a lot of the Fud was cleared.
I believe more than ever know that Steemit with Justin on board has the potential to create great things.
Then after the interview, the team made personal statements about where they stand in all of this and they all said they stand with the community.
That is a powerful statement that should not be underestimated.
I think it's now up to us to say that we stand with the team. I sure do.
Change is not always bad but it can be scary regardless. It's up to an individual how to approach such an event.
I choose to see all the good that this can bring, but make no mistake, I will fight for Steem if it ever comes to that.
Steem on.

I said it on twitter. Information is important. I think the biggest issue was the silence on the steemit side and the mixed news from tron. There really should have been something prepared before announcing it to the world. Just a statement with the basics of the deal and a rough plan. I know it will take them time to actually make a proper plan to move forward but you can't leave that much room for speculation.
You nailed it. We lost out of everything due to poor communication. Steemit Inc would have said something well before Justin.

The way I see it, if the team was informed at the same time as us that this deal happened, there was no time to make any statement because they also didn't have any facts.
But at the same time the TRON marketing machine (what they are good at and we so much need) was already running at full swing with unfounded information.
I don't blame them. What could they have done? With no facts.
From the interview, I learned that there will be soon more talks with the engineering and marketing team of TRON and things will become more clear very soon. But the fud that was going around has now been cleared.
It will take a long time to get the full plans in place. They will have to see what they are actually dealing with first and the best way to tie in the two systems. At least we have plenty developments to look forward to in the next few months.
Hopefully we get to see what a good marketing team can do with a great product.
Yes @niallon ...
... we can only hope. Plus ... The resources to bring the long-promised, but not yet delivered potential of Steem to life, e.g. SMTs ...

Hope the Steem Inc team actually be more interactive and social on Steemit the platform they are building.
If you are so excited why haven't you cancelled the power down?
Good, but in all a timely communication would have gotten this FUD averted. Community needs to hear leaders each time a change is envisaged.

great vid
The timing was horrendous for the Steemit team going into the Presidents Day weekend, really feel bad for them.
I'm 100% in agreement with you and will be shouting about this. Steemit can now provide a central marketing and leadership role and this will draw in more development work and more projects. We already know this is the place for Dapps, now more people get to hear this secret the Steemit team was keeping so quiet about!
Yeah, the timing was extremely unfortunate, to say the least.
I hope the marketing will ramp up soon.
Your enthusiasm for this information is amazing and contagious. I appreciate the reassurance provided by the interview and this blog. I agree with your assessment, based on what I have been told Justin Sun can bring developers, money and great marketing to Steemit and Steem. I believe he’s a good businessman who wants to profit from his investment, so we have a common goal.
I hope you sleep better tonight. 😊
Thanks, I think it will be an early night indeed :)

I can't handle negativity for too long. It drives me nuts. I know anything can happen but for now, it looks much better then ppl claimed.
That is great to know that one of the good witnesses is going to stick with us no matter how things go. I think a lot of us appreciate that.
Thanks, man.
Thanks for doing the interview Exyle <3 Enjoy this freaking sunny day and go to bed early tonight :D
Thanks! And yes, early bed tonight for sure.
