That's awesome, dude! Silly question, though, I thought Justin was Korean, not Chinese? Wasn't it the Korean community on Steem who backed him because he tried saying that anyone being against him was just racism against Koreans? Or are you referring to it as Chinese influence because of the Binance part?

It is my understanding that he is a Chinese Billionaire. The Korean community was an influential voting block between Justin Sun as 'HKdev' and the heavily western slate of 'top witnesses'. In the end, the Koreans did try to mediate, but it was a difficult situation and not everyone was on their best behavior.
CZ of Binance is another Chinese Billionaire in this tale!
It is my firm belief that the two sides of this and other polarized issues can be overcome through federated protocols such as 'Fediverse', Podcasting 2.0, and of course things like HIVE!
Ohhhhhhhhhh I totally did not know that. My bad! Thanks for the clarity.
Definitely Chinese. Lot of Koreans were involved in the hostile takeover on JS's side however.
Now I'm not sure if I saw someone else saying he was Korean or just saw so many in the community fighting his side and assumed like an idiot. I should have checked!
