While my title might be clickbaity and dramatic, no less so than several things that have taken place recently..
Several interesting things have taken place in the last few days.
https://github.com/steemdev/steem/pull/1
A github issue appeared suggesting code has been written to for a hardfork to remove SteemIt, Inc's stake.
While I understand the desire, it seems short-sighted and also may be too late! As SteemIt, Inc is powering down 34,004,951 SP. In addition, many will struggle with ethical as well as operational problems with those plans.
Also, several apps that had large delegations yesterday, will find themselves without delegation today.
It will be interesting to hear if those applications were given any warning at all.
I don't understand Ned's lack of understanding in needing to communicate with App creators if you want new app creators to come in the future.
I really can't imagine who would build anything on this chain at this point.
I don't know if Ned is pulling a Nexit or not. I also do not know if it would be a bad thing if he did.
Maybe just speed up the process?
