@ned is powering down 1.8 mil steempower

I just have seen that @ned started to powerdown around 1.8 mil of his steempower today. You can see the proof on the picture I took above. He also did a test transaction to a new user created in June called @brixtongg. Maybe there is a legit reason or something, but in my opinion it is a pretty bad move to sell almost 50% of your own company holdings without giving any reason the the other Investors (us steemit users).

I hope my STEEM skyrocket gif is still valid...

In my opinion it is absolutely irresponsible that Steemit CEO Ned Scott reduces his voting power by 50% without making any announcement. Imagine, Elon Musk selling 50% of his Tesla stakes without any statement about it. Would you like to be invested in such a company? I certainly don't.

It is not the case that everyone who holds a larger stake is obliged to make a corresponding statement to sell his shares. But, as a CEO you have a certain responsibility, because you can cause panic and cause considerable damage to the company and its investors or in this case also to users.

I will certainly draw the consequences. In any case, Steemit and the company behind it have lost much of my trust.

100% agreed.

haha Ned ... maybe we should ask him why, @Ned any comment?

The people will want to know for sure. @ned definitely deserves the benefit of the doubt. There may be some deal in the works.
