Hey, @vimukthi.

Plenty of drama for sure, and satire seems a natural fit, too, given in particular what we've gotten from the drama so far. :)

!ENGAGE 20

I specifically mentioned satire because of two reasons. After lessons of HF 20, they should have pushed for smaller changes and had the SPS first. The other is that the EIP which was supposed to help and create #newsteem created a #borkensteem

Hey, @vimukthi.

Especially since the SPS was ready and in testing phase around the end of February beginning of March, and had HF21 taken place then, it would have been five to six months from HF20, and then they could have done the EIP (or preferably SMTs) now.

As for the EIP, absolutely, especially since newsteem has been co-opted to mean the EIP, and not the community-based change in culture mentality it's supposed to be. I personally don't think the two much go hand in hand. I guess it's still early, so we'll see.

The good thing is we have basically no competition. VOICE is the only thing that even has a chance of beating STEEM and it doesn't even have a test net. Every other attempt AFAIK has been a failure.
