RE: An Open Letter to the Community - HF22.5
I honestly didn't think that lol how naive I was, here I was thinking okay we can now bring parties to the table but it looks like we're as divided as ever. I wonder if any of the witnesses will stick around for the great handing back of the chain
I doubt there will be any handing back. Justin Sun did the same thing to the Tron blockchain recently (with the aide of Binance) and has not 'handed it back' either.
I admit I know zero about Tron and never been interested in it. I don't get why people like these want to get into decentralised projects? Why not focus on something you can control then if thats what you want.
I think that calling something 'decentralized' has marketing appeal for someone only interested in making money.
Perhaps also Mr. Sun has control issues and can never quite deal with a truly decentralized platform but likes to be looked upon as a pioneer in the field for more complicated and perhaps narcissistic/megalomaniac reasons.
I think you're spot on there its more about the narrative and selling people on the idea and then obfuscating the implementation like oh we're not as shit as banks but low key we are exactly the same. Lets not forget the VC money Justin throws around naturally comes with conditions
Indeed!
When you look at the comments i this posts you can see that there is an obvious play being made to control the narrative.
I would also say 'to save face' but obviously @justinsunsteemit does not have any 'face' to save to begin with.
Manipulators see lotsa potential victims when looking at something decentralized. It's what they do for a living.
