With the 0.22.5 SF Steemit and Tron just pushed though, voting on witnesses is now completely pointless.
They just demonstrated that they can at any point in time take full control of the blockchain to push their agenda. There is no way we can have faith that STEEM can be governed in a decentralized manner now that they have show they can do this.
Looks like we may be hard forking to steem classic or something.
I'm reinstating my witness votes. We can beat this now that the exchanges have withdrawn their votes!
