RE: The Game and the Gamble: Unmasking the Logic of 'Rightness' and 'Wrongness' in the Battle for the Steem Blockchain
Hmmmm!Well i agree with you on some aspect, however, i insist that there is nothing wrong if we make powering down shorter in days compared to 13weeks.
Apart from the possibility of the STEEM price falling.
There has been quite the talk of power down. Users who have written off their STEEM investment after the hostile take over and with a 3 day power down they are likely to sell.
The large majority of STEEM is locked in VEST:

If that VEST becomes almost as liquid then STEEM then there is a good change that the STEEM price will fall. It's supply and demand — if supply is quadrupled than prices go down.
If you made the same suggestion a month ago I would said: Maybe, why not? But in the mist of a hostile take over that could lead to panic sells.
PS: If Justin Sun pushes his three day power down I'll power down as well. Because then he has total control of the chain and SteemIt has basically failed in its promise of decentralised censor prove social network.
Okay i get your view now
