RE: request for all the Hive witnesses and stakeholders

in #hive4 years ago

Short answer : No,

Long answer: No, we (@steempress) won't agree with anything that involves tampering with anyone's funds or even something as trivial as changing someone's display name. The one who owns the keys now owns the account unless you manage to find an old key and can recover. But there is nothing that we will do.

(I can already see the hive haters coming like "you already did by excluding people when the chain was made" and to that I reply not aidropping is completely different from touching funds after launch, see https://hive.blog/hive/@ats-david/do-you-even-hive-bro).

And even if we were willing, you have no proof that you actually used to own that account.

I'm sorry but that's blockchain. You have a lot of freedom where no one can tell you what you can't do, but that comes at the price where if you lose your keys, no one can help you.
