Steem community votes to stop justin Sun’s takeover

Steem community member by the name Girl Gone Crypto shared a clip on Twitter claiming that  her “neutral explainer video” regarding the March 20 hard fork had been censored removed from the Steemit.com Steemit's a hard fork which would see the platform shifted to the Hive blockchain was scheduled for March 20. Girl Gone Crypto decided to share a video clip comprehending the details of the hard fork and the new Hive blockchain. However, she was astounded to see her clip censored on the Steemit platform.


“I made a really neutral explainer video just kind of walking through the announcement, and what’s happening; and what people can expect, and that post was just removed from Steemit.com. What’s really ironic about this is that centralization issues and censorship concerns are exactly why the Steem community is forking the chain and moving to Hive.”

Steem community votes to stop Sun’s takeover

The Steem community suggested the Hive hard fork on March 18.  This was a community response towards the Tron CEO attempt to dominate the network.  Back on February 14, Justin Sun acquired Steemit Inc, acquiring 20% of the total STEEM tokens supply. This acquisition instigated proposals of a hard fork from the Steem community.

Furthermore, on March 3rd Justin Sun influenced major cryptocurrency exchanges Binance, Huobi DM and his own Poloniex exchange to vote in his favour to drive out Steem network’s 20 node operators.

Following an adverse reaction by the Steem community; Huobi and Binance have both since withdrawn their votes and expressed their support of the Hive hard fork. Hive tokens will be airdropped at the ratio of 1:1 with the Steem tokens; however, it will exclude the founder's reward, which is held by Justin Sun.

In conclusion, the Hive hard fork seems to have drawn massive backing from the Steem community members. Within 16 hours of the Hive fork announcement, the value of STEEM surged by over 200%.  You May Also Read.

REAL WORLD USE CASE OF BLOCKCHAIN 🚧🚧🚧🚧🚧🚧🚧🚧

 Here are some of the most popular applications of blockchain being explored today. Bank Use Perhaps no industry stands to benefit from integrating blockchain into its business operations more than banking. Financial institutions only operate during business hours, five days a week. That means if you try to deposit a check on Friday at 6 p.m., you likely will have to wait until Monday morning to see that money hit your account. Even if you do make your deposit during business hours, the transaction can still take one to three days to verify due to the sheer volume of transactions that banks need to settle. Blockchain, on the other hand, never sleeps. By integrating blockchain into banks, consumers can see their transactions processed in as little as 10 minutes, basically the time it takes to add a block to the blockchain, regardless of the time or day of the week. With blockchain, banks also have the opportunity to exchange funds between institutions more q...

Get Educated Before Investing in Crypto Currency.

Hiiii , everybody? I am Tushar. Welcome to my blog. So cryptocurrency doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon.  It it doesn't look like it would go without a fight either. You might remember when Jamie dimon the CEO of JPMorgan Chase Bank made a statement saying that Bitcoin is a fraud and that is eventually gonna blow up and anybody ,who invest their money in Bitcoin is stupid. This got a lot of people Angry, but I thought this was hilarious because right after Jamie dimon said this his daughter sent him an email saying hi Daddy. I actually own Bitcoin and I made money on it.🤓🤓🤓🤓       That's a little awkward. I mean, could you imagine the next family dinner I can imagine Jamie is saying something like sweetie. Could you please pass me the salt and then she accidentally gives him the pepper I could imagine him just like giving her this look and then make it a statement to the whole world saying if you could view salt.
