Support the Steem Captain to support all of us! We sit in the same boat!steemCreated with Sketch.

Fellow Steemians,

heads-up and do not panic. Keeping it short today! We had icy times recently with hot discussions

Dan resigning might result in stormy times.  If you are after a calm and safe boring place this might not be the right platform. If you like challenges, work and party hard - believe in something - now it is time to prove, stay, invest, write, engage and help! 

WE all should stick together and help our Captain @Ned now - sure there are great things in place already. It is  sad Dan is leaving - he built the ship - massive thanks for that. 

Let us all help we survive the storm - I am confident we have a Strong Captain! 

Let us all be a strong and committed crew! Let us work together to overcome storm, ice and other hurdles.

Perhaps it's better to just take a different boat. Ned seems too afraid of competition to stick to principles.

I don't know - can not officially judge rumours and speculations but I know which comment you refer to @demotruk. I hope you are wrong - let us cross fingers. Thanks for commenting

It's not a rumour. @sneak deleted @dan's proposal to fully open source Steem on GitHub.

He also appears to have deleted comments, he's very pro free speech like that.

Dan also specifically said it was @ned and @sneak blocking it.

Hmmm - am no crypto or blockchain expert so I hope this license thing will find a solution. Thanks for linking me @demotruk

Dan left Bitshares one year ago, and Bitshares has been just fine. There is no central leader anymore, so it's actually decentralised. And it works! Bitshares has kept making progress. Actually things have become very stable, which is good for many reasons. The same will happen with Steem(it). There will likely be less changes, and people will learn how things work. People like stability.

Thanks for this valuable comment!!

Indeed... people like stability. I appreciate this comment... perhaps as a broader commentary on the possibility that Dan simply may not be a long term guy.

A lot of visionaries have great ideas, create and implement them.... and then move on to the next great idea. They are just not interested (or get bored?) with the ongoing daily grind and politics of daily running of a company...

It´s sailing day! Lots of ships in here, haha
We should open a new tag :)
Good post, Uwe. Let´s at least wait for Ned´s statement.
Then there is still plenty of time to power down... or not.

Exactly @surfermarly - i do hope all will be good or probably even better! ShipDay

I like your attitude. Steem on!

Thanks so much my friend from lovely Bulgaria!

i appreciate your positivity in the matter hope to see more of it around here:)

The only way is positive thinking moving forward - there was enough drama recently - stand unite - thanks for taking the time to comment @doitvoluntarily

Lets keep on Steeming

I'm just a lowly minnow, but I'm not planning to abandon ship.

As I have said elsewhere, if everyone just QUIT everytime one of the key players in an organization went to pursue other interests, the world would be in a total state of chaos, littered with unfinished and never-developed projects.

agreed and well said!!

You said: "If you like challenges, work and party hard - believe in something - now it is time to prove, stay, invest, write, engage and help!"
I like all of the above, so I'm sticking around too.
I've been looking for a better blogging platform for ages, and when @Denmarkguy finally sold me on it, I posted for the first time -- then Dan took off for the hills.
It was probably my fault.
I'm no minnow or whale or dolphin ...

I'm a mermaid. wink

Hello mermaid - nice to meet you, glad @Denmarkguy sold this to you - if you do not know him i can introduce you lol - i love mermaids! People leaving leaving from management is a usual process these days, in normal business and crypto / blockchain probably even faster so 2 years in one place might be enough if you are not founder and CEO - I like your style!
