RE: Quick update on Hive-related activities at BlockTrades

This makes sense but I assume the chain would stop if all witness votes were set to zero. Someone has to witness the blocks. This actually brings up an interesting question of how the first few blocks were witnessed in 2016. I guess the 20 witnesses were pre-decided?

Sort:  

yes, there were some "init" witnesses that were originally voted in automatically. It's been the standard way to launch "from zero" DPOS chains.
