You want to force your will onto other people instead of giving people the right and liberty to chose for themselves — as every other blockchain spilt I know of did.

And thinking of it a little more: It's not even necessary. If @justinsunsteemit gets control over the chain he most likely make a token swap for TRON. The old STEEM token is likely to be gone anyway.

And speaking gone: What stops me from selling my STEEM or transferring it into newly created account before the deadline? You said it yourself:

Likely to work? Probably not.

BTW: If you look at my other comments I made in recent time: I'm in favour of a blockchain split. It's probably the only way forwards. It's just your “burn your steem” demand I oppose.

To too much a libertarian to accept such demands.
