There was a half baked HF proposal by someone on Github that spooked Steemit inc. into powering down to protect their stake just in case. There is no official HF proposal to do any of this.
We (@blockbrothers) are against any sort of proposal hard-forking out any account if it would ever occur.
Clearly the green egg had no involvement in this half-baked proposal!
Thank you for the clear message from @blockbrothers. We have absolutely the same opinion as you guys.
