It was a long read, glad to see at least one person talking about the witness selection/retention process. Not real sure about what to do with all the ninjamine, I think a 25% reduction, (burn) to start with and see what happens. The HPS Proposals, well at least it is the community even if it is the top 1 or 3% that can control what gets approved, perhaps a slight correction to the vote process it has to make it more likely that it would take at least 23% of the voting population to vote a proposal in. Difficult times and choices to make in the future. It is good to see we are very close to cutting the strings to steem and will be able to move forward with out having steem issues trailing along in our wake.
