Steem was not working for everyone. Other than your gloss over the censorship that still exists when a whale decides to bot nuke an account or a witness. Said whale seems to still be a central witness in hive. Other than your lack of information in someinstances you told the story well brian. Zionism is still bad.

I can't please everyone and neither can Steem or Hive. With a story like this there's always more to be said even though 30 minutes is a very long time for this.

Great summary Brian.

As a side note. The one and only way for Justin to takeover the entire network, was with the help of those 3 exchanges. Those 70 mill SP he possess ...that 21%...just wasn't enough to attack the network. He needed much more than that. If the exchanges didn't participate in that fiasco Steem would have still been decentralized run by real people...real witnesses.

Most of them moved to HIVE. DTUBE is on both blockchains. Esteem is now on HIVE.

Good to document what happened, each will move according to where they are happy to settle. Really a pity this did transpire, it does however reflect what people are looking for.

Now Steem has its own "The DAO case" like ETC/ETH.

It is truly a testament to the strength of this community that this happened. It's something I've always admired about people here, while many of us are casual bloggers sharing art, videos, recipes, and the like... there is a true commitment by many to the principles of decentralization. This was the first test of many ahead. As larger institutional players enter the space, more attempts at takeover will ensue, only when the community stands firm together and holds to their principles can we maintain a decentralized system. Proud of this community for giving hope to many naysayers who believe that blockchain will eventually be a powerful tool for central authorities.
