An exclusive tutorial for exchanges to help them power down their users' funds.

Binance, Huobi, and Poloniex teamed up with Tron to participate in the takeover of Steem blockchain. As a result, exchanges knowingly locked their users' funds.

Here is the step by step tutorial to power down funds.

How to power down

For non-exchange users:

Make sure to vote for the top 30 real witnesses. Fake witnesses are marked with yellow color here: https://steemd.com/witnesses

Every vote counts. Every single vote will help to secure the chain. Currently, Steem blockchain is under the attack of the Tron foundation and without your help, Steem blockchain will become a centralized application.
