I think it's just confusion. lol
I think what he originally said was his true intention: migration from the Steem mainnet to the Tron mainnet will commence right away. Then he realized it wasn't that simple for technical or social reasons and back-pedaled a little saying that he was going to keep the status quo - for now. He is going to push for moving the ecosystem to Tron but it's going to take some time.
if that's true he's only migrating steemit.com and its sheep users (which i doubt would add any value to tron or any other blockchain). anyone with even the slightest understanding on steem wouldn't give it up for some random tokens without any of its merits.
if justin wants a blind overhaul on steemit thinking that's gonna move the userbase over to tron, so be it. i'd like to see a fork without that ninja mined stake anyways :)
You seem to believe that Steem, the blockchain, will do fine regardless. STEEM on exchanges will become the TRC20, not our STEEM. Liquidity for our STEEM tokens will dry up almost entirely and the price tag will drop so low that witnesses will be working for free.
I suppose that is fine if all you want is STEEM to be a utility token exclusively used within the blockchain without much of a secondary market. But people's desire for an "immutable blog space" is going to be tested soon, because Steem Classic will have to come back from a huge drop to regain the position it has right now.
you seem to believe that when text changes on a website, it magically turns steem into trc.
