HF20 also made it very hard for new people to use the platform. On top of losing value, it's also losing users which what's supposed to make this platform go. Steemit is a social media platform without a growing user base...It wouldn't be very "social" now would it if there are no users. Either they have to rollback to HF19 or do something to attract more users here.
Were they real users ? I was getting multiple spam comments per post. At least that has stoped with HF20 . It was killing the platform. Now at least they can figure out new users ; RC delegation for verified users should solve that shortly .
IMO the system was broken and they had to fix it first before onboaridng anyone new.
i can't imagine a roll back, but maybe new patches and improvements... maybe a new hardfork even!
i have introduced this platform to many...
btw, steem is not just about steemit... don't you agree?
