Hello steemit Friends. Steemit, Steem, and SBD has again passed another major hurdle.

MAJOR HURDLE PASSED!

Again, this is very good news! It is good news because it means that Steem and Steem Dollars were attacked by professional high level black hats and it has pulled through!

Once Steemit holds it Hack-A-Thon in Lisbon, Steem and SBD will get even better. It will be a secure internet token of considerable test and strength.

One thing that is obvious is that Black Hats tried very hard to take over and destroy Steemit before Lisbon. The reason I think this was done is more about what posters post and not so much for the value they could steal.

Things such as PizzaGate and other investigations by authors into just exactly what is going on in the world makes Steemit a target like WikiLeaks so for that, we authors want to thank the crap out of the developers and witnesses!

MORE THAN GREAT WORK!

Poloniex thinks that Bitcoin will fork. Poloniex will stick with the decentralized Bitcoin, the one with the lowest mining difficulty. This is important to know if you wish to continue to trade in Poloniex and it is especially important to know how your exchange or exchanges will respond when the Forks start hitting August 1st or so.

I showed the Steem/ Ethereum wallet/ trading pairs for a reason. There are other options out there for your Steem than bitcoin.

As we all know Bitcoin Streaked Today passing $2600. It seems to be drawing back from that price all too quickly.

I am still with the thought that Steem will rocket here as soon as the security is proved because of transaction speed and scalability. Remember, Steemit has our wallets in full, plain, public view - Even the whales! Nobody has that.

LITECOIN IS CURRENTLY FROZEN AT POLONIEX!

Remember an exchange that is attacked and they all are that survives is a much safer place to exchange and trade on than one that is new. A secure internet token provider that is attacked and survives is more than gold to the internet

WE ARE STILL HERE! as Morpheus would say

Thanks for the awards and recognition @steemitboard:
