RE: Witnesses Using Different Fork Versions
22.0
No softfork changes. The version before Steem release 22.1 which contained the patch described in GitHub here. Note: this version is compatible with 22.1.
22.1
No softfork changes. The clean version before all the "drama".
22.2
Softfork changes implemented by a super-majority of witnesses to prevent Tron's accounts from voting on witnesses, voting on content, voting on SPS proposals, powering down, and transferring stake. Details here.
22.3
My version of the soft-fork which prevented Tron from voting for witnesses, but did not block them from doing anything else. Details here.
22.333
@therealwolf's version. See his comment in reply to this post.
22.4444
Non-Tron witnesses running the same code as 22.1 (no softfork) but in symbolic protest of Tron's hostile takeover.
22.5
Tron witnesses running the same code as 22.1 (no softfork) who were put in place by Tron + exchanges as part of a hostile takeover.
Thanks. Question:
What about the "missing blocks" from the former community witnesses, who are now in the top 20 again?
Can they do their work despite missing blocks? Or is this already a chain split?
In my opinion nobody should prevent anybody from doing this or that. The pure law of steem is:
SP = Influence.
Now the community is regaining the control without changing the rules and that's fine. We shoud not continue the war with Justin. Instead of this we should bring all our brain and ideas together to öush steem forward.
Thanks, mate.
Missing blocks by itself isn’t an indication that someone shouldn’t be a witness. It depends on the reason. If a witness is missing blocks because they don’t have proper infrastructure or failover processes in place, that is bad - but that is not the only reason blocks are missed. Most of the time there is a good reason for it, and not something to get unvoted for.
Thanks for the clarity in this forest of emotions and rumors
@yabapmatt and @pharesim are running 22.0. Just more outdated than 22.1?
Yes. It is still compatible though.
Thank you for your continued service and helpful information.
Ok, thanks, very well explained.
Good that everyone can see now clean explanation/comparison in one place
