Hi @pennsif

Great summary as usual. You missed an article I put out on medium which was taken up by a crypto/steem publication called steem world.

https://medium.com/steem-world/trons-hostile-take-over-of-steem-blockchain-77a0b2120147?source=friends_link&sk=01d28c78b15894ff3e65b1c50056b8c4

The steem version of the article uses more terminology that steemians know:

I think it's very important at this time to get the facts out on places like medium, and twitter so that this doesn't end up a steem discord echo chamber as things so often do with steem issues. I've been on twitter, like many others, for many hours a day for the last 3 days.

A lot of people don't understand PR, and why Justin Sun is saying what he's saying on twitter. With knowledge come power, and the tools to provide a clear, consistent counter narrative based on facts. That article provides a perspective from someone who has experience and knowledge working in PR in the past.

I've listened to that YouTube video of the witness meeting with Justin Sun and I'm pretty sure he's just after getting ROI at this point. Seems Ned might not have given him all the facts.

Anyway, let's all keep the pressure on with tweets, especially with exchanges as that is the biggest story to my mind because it seems the legality of what was done is suspect at best.

Together we're all showing what people power on dpos is all about!

Thanks for this. There is a a lot of material to digest at the moment!

I appreciate that @pennsif.

I heard you speak in town hall the other day and I think we need more level headed negotiating tactics like you were trying to get across. I tried suggesting some stuff at the end of last nights town hall and didn't really feel like I was listened too whatsoever.

We can argue amoung ourselves in discord for a week, and all that will do is give Tron time to plan their next move. Crazy steem echo chamber doesn't help sometimes.

Anyway, much respect for what you do each day putting these together. Believe me since I started my community I understand how much work it can take managing things at this level. writing for two accounts and answering so many comments is a full time hobby... if there is such a ting lol

I'm just going to listen to the rest of last night's meeting.

I'm hoping there will be a happy ending, although I guess it will end on another cliffhanger...

Ha ha, well if you make it the full 5 hours or whatever it turned out being, it ends with me blathering on about how they should go into meetings with an agreement in their minds about the least they want and the most they want and then try and negotiate from the top down to get the most out of any deal as possible.... crazy, I know!

I'm known for my crazy steem opinions 😂

P.s. I can't take anymore debate about all this to be honest. I've gotta step away from it for a day at least for my own sanity ;-)
