Yes ned is a filthy bastard, but I dont really care about the ninja mined stake itself. I have a bigger problem with justin not engaging with the community but instead turning himself into a legitimate threat.
In maritime shipping, the captain has the right to jettison cargo if that means saving the ship, crew, and other property. In my book the biggest stakeholder talking about "migration" to another chain while leaving out 100% of the details is clearly an existential threat.
If witnesses need to block certain transactions for the safety of the chain, they have the right to do so. And lets not forget theyre elected, and the majority of the community is behind them.
Whether we should allow that kinda soft fork in a dpos or not, thats still an open question 😶
that talk that now we have a presedan and it is known that it could be done, well elected witnesses can do anything, if they have supermajority.
Few fun weeks ahead :D
i dunno why everyone's worried about the "precedent" cuz there's so much more context. but either way, if prices go down far enough i'll buy steem :)
well i hope we will have inside information from that town hall meeting, before everyone else :D
lol i dunno about inside info but we'll see soon enough :)
