RE: Human Nature and "Adventures" in the Steemisphere
I will start by saying that I absolutely agree with you in that any move to fork anyone’s stake is a slippery slope of the beginning of the end for any blockchain. Regarding my comment, I think the real purpose by many of the top witnesses was to immutably post a type of commitment that they will not support a fork in an effort to stop the powerdown from Steemit. However, I think it has led to some thinking it was an implicit blackmail or the sorts. Again, I have read so much over the last 24 hours on this that is has been exhausting and we are probably at the point of forgetting the underlying issue which is how we move to a sustainable blockchain.

Okay, thank you for the clarification @newageinv.
Long-term, I agree with you. This is the underlying challenge of all blockchains, given how new this asset class is.
Short-term and right in front of us is the issue I have addressed in my post. Ned initiated his "defensive move," in response to it.
As I have said elsewhere, intelligence and wisdom are not the same thing. As we watch this drama unfold, I hope those calmer and wiser prevail ...
P.S. Yes, I am fired up ... 😉
