I just wonder how any system here can call itself "decentralized" if the
actions of one man/boy, can turn the whole community
upside down..?
Ain't that closer to a dictatorship?

If he tries anything than we make a fork, so it’s like a social contract. It becomes a loss for both the community and for Justin.
Not we. The witnesses can make a fork. But there are not that many of those.
Anyone can fork a coin. The witnesses can agree to fork without splitting the chain, to keep only one coin Steem.
Not on steem. AFAIK you need 20 witnesses to run a steem block chain. So we would need to become witnesses first before we can fork the chain.
Of course you could set up 20 sock puppet witnesses but who would want to use that chain? And it's still be witnesses.
Same for any other blockchain. You always need a sizeable group to add validity to your fork.
So not anyone can fork a coin. It takes a sizeable group to fork a coin.
At least 20 in the case of steem.
How is it different from when Ned had the power though? Isn't it just one dictator handing power to another? At least this one isn't fast asleep at the wheel.
I'm not saying I trust Justin, I don't know the guy, but Ned was clearly no good.
I agree for the most part....

I completely disagree. This is another fantastic development in the world of crypto and one of massive importance considering both firms track record paving the way in the world of crypto. This means it is yet another huge step forward in the way that the crypto world can become more innovative and productive towards legitimising the industry. It is hard to think of a better time, bar late-2017, to be part of the community. Is your comment to say that by coming closer together, those involved in the cryptocurrency industry are moving further away from the goals it was created to achieve? I for one will be getting closer involved in the projects that have now partnered up due to this news with the help of platforms like the ones that can be found at https://www.cryptimi.com/exchanges/best-bitcoin-exchanges where I can invest in these organisation's tokens with ease and this is what I would recommend for anyone else reading this news as opposed to feeling negative about the partnership.
Hi there, i never said that he wants to "kill" or "burn down" Steemit or it's community.
I said "upside down" more in the sense of what kind of reactions his action caused in Steemit.
And this is centralized action from one source, and this is control, and this is my point ;)
Where is the Decentralization?
Will the witnesses stay?
And i don't like Warren Buffet, sugaring up the world, especially the children, with his
horsepiss Coca Cola...for real, that's the secret ingredient i heard ;) Cheers! :)
And i also dislike this charity dinner this Justin organized with this kind of people,
who was "shitting" on Crypto and BTC 2 years ago.
You can find better investors...
Enjoy your weekend ;)
I can think of reasons:
- To dominate us.
- To dictate us.
- To gut the technology.
OK, OK, I took it as long as I could.
Socialism uses violence to coerce the people.
It is clearly defined.
Communism is a different word because it is a different concept.
Logical, yes?

Please refer to anyone forcing others to do things they don't want to do as socialusts.
Us communists will be over here peacefully cooperating us another world.

You have been fed what you think on this subject to keep you from escaping.
Think about it.
Nothing surprising or new. I have said this many times. The adherents of the totalitarian systems who love communism, Bashar Assad, Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein and defend them in every way are concentrated at 3speak.
