RE: OMG... What Is All The Fuss About? Steemit Now Has A Chance AGAIN!

in #steemit4 years ago (edited)

Thanks, Dave, for at least trying to highlight the potential positives. I trust you in many things, but the things I've read these past two days made me really insecure.
The -now deleted - Medium article by TronlinkWallet about the token swap... Apparently everything was set up to start the token swap instantly. The warning that you needed to swap your token asap before your Steem would become worthless was pretty alarming. Even more alarming was that it needed to be done on Polinex, of which someone told me it's not even available for people in the US.
For some unknown reason, justin backed away from the token swap - for now. Looks like we really dodged a bullet there.
If he changes his mind so quickly, who prevents him to change his mind again tomorrow?

Then I read articles like this, and it just proves the guy isn't to be trusted.

Guess we have no other choice than to go with the flow. But for the first time I'm here, I'm powering down. I'll see what happens over the weeks to come, but I'd rather be prepared for everything

Sort:  

I don't think he backed off the token swap. I think he soften his approach, he first was very forth coming and then seen all the negative feedback and then dialed back how he presented information. What-ever his plan was when he first bought STEEMIT (which was likely months ago) is very likely still his plan. I think a token swap is going to happen, its only a matter of when.

Hey @simplymike... When I saw your reply it took me back to "the old days" when I was always so excited to see what you were going to say! :)

And on your points, I completely understand and think its very very prudent to be prepared for everything. I think powering down is fine and I'm sure you will have things clear up well before that powerdown is finished.

I still believe that there is a "chance" for some majorly big things to happen as a result of this. But heck, there is no way in the world I would recommend anyone being anything but prudent. We will see how it unfolds, but as usual you are making a smart choice and I applaud both your wisdom and common sense! :)
