Well, Mr Sun effectively only bought a name (brand) if he doesn't include the existing community on his version of the platform , which would effectively leave him with an empty social media platform and a lot of pissed off former community members who, I'm sure, would be looking into their legal rights to be appropriately compensated for their "percentage ownership [of the Steem blockchain]" (possible class action lawsuit in the making). I'm certain that he's covered his ass regarding potential lawsuits, though.
