RE: Steem - Justin Sun just wants to make some money?

in Funny5 years ago

He wants to make money, but look how he is doing it. He's attacking his own investment. This is a 51% attack. He's calling our witnesses and consensus itself a hack. He's used investor funds to vote in his own puppet witnesses and unlock 70 million coins and fully centralized the chain. We are extremely vulnerable now.

He has no idea what he is doing, and it's very concerning. I would take any deal to get this stake refrozen to secure the chain. I don't see how that's going to happen.

Sort:  

There is a language barrier and I wouldn't get too hung up on the exact wording used. It seems very clear that he is just responding to the hostility that has been shown to him by freezing something he just paid $10 million for. He is only voting his people in to keep control of his stake that he just purchased. At this point it is looking like if the hostility keeps up, he is just going to dump the coins on the open market and steem be damned.

I'm not looking at any of the wording. Actions speak louder, and these actions are the worst ones possible. Worse than what we thought was possible (because of the exchange betrayal).

To me it just looks like just about everything we have seen is simply in response to having his funds locked.

Agreed! I tried explaining this to as many witnesses as possible before the softfork went thru. No one listened. Wouldn't you be pissed if 10 million dollars of your new company were frozen? I know I would be and I would definitely make an example of people who did it, regardless of the costs. We forced his hand and he had to do a show of force. This was terrible for not only steemians and tron but also for all centralized exchanges, this will change a lot of things in the crypto world.

Yep, and that very likely caused all of this mess.
