TripleA Witness
There is happening quite a lot in the moment on our Blockchain and it seems that the community is divided into several groups trying to achieve somehow the same goal but with different approaches.
- We have groups that are using the Steem blockchain to announce a new Blockchain and probably to get investment. Fair thing and we wish them good luck. Getting investments for new Blockchains nowadays is not an easy job and I hope they have enough fundings for marketing.
- We have groups that are trying to force the witnesses from Steemit Inc. out, as the force is claiming that the Steem used for voting was never planned for voting witnesses.
- We have groups that are trying in the background to keep this chain whole and gather the interests from all parties to find a working ground together.
1. The TripleA Witness
TripleA is a Movie and TV show review site, based on Steem and Steem-Engine tokens trying to form an alternative platform to make it possible to reward content creators and curators on both sides. During the project, we also realized that a general reward, based on inflation without having the utility for investors is difficult to maintain when the user number is not on a similar level like services without any blockchain technology.
To be able to get more users on our platform we also have seen that we need several parts at the same time to create momentum.
- Big enough marketing budget to onboard users.
- Easier onboarding for users.
- Services and digital products to create enough sink for the token economy.
With the news coming out that Tron may buy themselves into Steemit Inc. we were positive for having more marketing on the Steem Blockchain then before, which would be also positive for the TripleA project.
2. The past
There are a ton of posts about what happened from different views. One thing that we have seen in common is the following part.
- The community does not want the witnesses from Steemit Inc. being kept on the top 20.
- Steemit Inc. would be willing to remove their witnesses and votes when they can be sure that no funds may be frozen ever again.
There is in the moment a lot of talk going on behind between stakeholders that are NOT interested in a chain split because it would eventually weaken the whole community for all sides.
As far as we can see, words can be broken and code can be overridden with power. We will have to choose the difficult way to make a ground where we can at least try to trust each other.
3. The statement
@justinsunsteemit mentioned in a meeting with witnesses, Steemfoundation and the KR community that they would be willing to remove votes and witnesses when they can be sure that no fund may be frozen. A statement from the witnesses would be needed.
To start with it, we would like to inform the following to ensure the first step for a trust-based relationship.
The team behind TripleA and the witness server will NEVER involve nor confirm any action or code that could freeze or limit the stake of anybody on the Steem blockchain.
To emphasize our attention, we have launched our server based on version 0.22.5, which should be a message for Steemit Inc. itself.
4. Thoughts
We think that Steem is a great place. It does have a very diverse community and maybe also some geeky users but it is still a place where people can come together, get information and live together as a big community. We think that we are now on the edge of a lot of changes and that we may not return to the status quo as before. For that too much has happened already. But sometimes change may be needed to move forward.
We will act, as everybody else here on the chain, to do what we think is right. And that would be to try to establish governance on this chain for all participants.
Smart move. Looks like he is buying older accounts now to make it seem that his witnesses are not sock puppets. You are not fooling anyone here...
I bet my ass that we will see 10 more random older accounts pop up in the top 20 in a matter of days...
That dev365 vote is like a stigma if you get it for a prolonged period of time.
Fuck off! Tell me your twitter account NOW !!!
Hello Hachyn, hows it going? HAtchin, hachin whatever the name is.
You are fooling everybody for years, let the Sun have some fun as well :D
Such a statement seems a little unnecessary and possibly naive. On a decentralised blockchain where such actions would require a super majority of top witnesses (17 out of 20), there is close to zero chance anyone's stake would be maliciously frozen. If any top witnesses planned such actions they would not remain top witnesses for very long.
If the blockchain comes under threat, it is the duty of the witnesses to protect the blockchain. Under these circumstances, a temporary restriction to particular actions might be deemed necessary until the threat is removed.
This part is what we see different, as some other top 20 witnesses at that time did also.
What was your price tag? This post contradicts itself at least 5 times, but the major flaw is behind the bullet points.
That indicated a bailout, but it ain't gonna happen.
You rely on the word of someone that forced his own friend and Co. Founder out of TRON in 2019 (by centralizing it) and made every credible developer of STEEMit Inc. leave the company. What the hell are you even talking about when you say or write 'STEEMit Inc.'. There ain't none left besides the TRON F.
AND YOU THINK, he will stick to his word(bait) after you gave him the power to do else wise? Why would he do that and what's the reason he's not doing it on the TRON chain? Last time I checkt, TRON was worth 0,009$? Where are the sinks in the nearly ~700 developed DAPPs for TRON?
Empty words and deceptions, maybe stay with the facts. Only the past can tell the truth and his past is damn dark and dirty.
And last but not least, if he'd bought his STEEM on the exchanges, just like anyone else... how big would your profit have already been compared to now? Think about that for a second.
There's this famous phrase:
@exyle heres how you can make top ten witnesses. Ask the Koreans how you can kiss ass like them. Maybe they give you pointers.
To the rest of you... Can we PLEASE Hard Fork already and GTFO.
Having spammers and vote abusers like Virus in top 10 witness spot voted in by ninjamine stake is an abomination.
It's an attack on sanity.
Don't you get that Justin will use these turncoats to push the idea that the community supports him. That there are no sock puppets any more.
He will continue to vote in his supporters and control the chain.
This is a puppet.. you waste your words ;))
But good energy! <3
Glad to see a new witness project representing another community. I think it is crucial that we have a good diversity of witnesses both in order for more Steemians to feel represented, but also for improved security when the top witnesses don't hold the same views and thus cannot easily collude.
I have two questions before deciding to vote:
@fredrikaa thanks for stopping by.
I think the following link introducing the TripleA team would help.
https://steemit.com/jjm/@jayplayco/team-jjm-introduction-of-team-members
Cool, a new witness.
Just wondering why the account is only voting itself and not other developer witnesses?
I could use a witness vote. After getting bumped from 56 to 94 to 86 in all of this crazyness.
You can click this link to go vote: https://klye.steem.design/
What is your opinion on Justin Sun, if its actually as negative as your profile suggest,you'll never see a vote from me and should go get hives.
Dick-Suck Sun is a fucking pathetic little cuck. He's trying to overcompensate for his fucking micropenis by acting like a tyrant over here. Funny thing is, his shitty little empire is going to fall. He's too fucking stupid for his own good. LMFAO. Dumb ass Dick-Suck Sun
You should go to hive anyway, this place has become a heaping pile of shit lol. If you don't like Justin Sun, he uses that "developmental" stake to knock your dick in the dirt. Joke's on him when all that stake becomes worth a few bucks LOL Dick-Suck Sun, you truly are a fucking retard. ;) Tiny-dicked, tiny-brained fucking little bitch. LMFAO
The team behind TripleA and the witness server will NEVER involve nor confirm any action or code that could freeze or limit the stake of anybody on the Steem blockchain. < so you are on board with Hive now too? We are waiting for you!
Didn't take long for you to break this promise after what you did with the latest soft fork freezing funds for several large accounts such as @blocktrades
I am 100% for the Korean community having witnesses, but not like this. How this witness was voted in makes it only marginally better than Justin's sockpuppets. The Korean community is playing with fire in terms of their future token value in attempting to appease Justin, and his eventual dismantling of the STEEM chain. If you all think downvotes are bad, I hope you will enjoy your subpenny STEEM.
As one of the top witnesses on Steem now- Can you tell me how you feel about these changes to the terms of service? Some open and honest communication would help during these trying times.
Do you agree with these changes? Were you consulted at all before they were changed? Do you really believe people need written permission to promote each other? Am I seriously not allowed to promote anything that isn't Steemit?
If you can't answer these questions that isn't a good look for the future of steem...
14.1. When accessing or using the Services, you agree that you will not commit any unlawful act, and that you are solely responsible for your conduct while using our Services. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree that you will not:
14.1.7. Use our services to promote third-party platforms or to promote each other without our written permission.
Lol... what a heap of BS... let me fix this for you, it should read:
