RE: My position on the soft fork - I am not running the changes on my witness node

in #witness-update6 years ago

Regardless of the messy situation that got us here, and the very real security risk that Tron currently poses to our chain - I see them as a stakeholder who acquired their stake through a legitimate over-the-counter purchase, and I am not OK forcing restrictions on the way a stakeholder uses their stake.

I agree, especially when this is no different to a bank freezing the accounts of a client because they don't like what they do with their money, or the type of legitimate business activity they conduct.

(There's many examples of Australian banks shutting down the commerical / business acounts of Australian cryptocurrency exchanges), and this "Freezing of the funds" which the super majority has agreed to amounts to exactly this type of behaviour, and in my view cannot be supported on a blockchain that is by definition meant to be for the use of all stakeholders and their stake.

About the legitimacy of that deal: was Justin aware of the fact that on the Steemit-owned stake specific conditions had been agreed with the community?
