A debt of gratitude is in order for going on air these last couple times. I haven't concurred with the majority of your announcements, yet I do need to state you're much progressively common in this arrangement. It's a pleasant initial step to demonstrate that you are expressly trying to be increasingly informative and it's an extraordinary path for the network to put forth extreme inquiries so the present crack gets an opportunity of recuperating.
The power-down
As of late, you began a shut down on the 
Moving STEEM to anchor wallets. Steemit's STEEM underpins our Mission, Vision and Values which are based on Steem and Steemit.com. Our vision is to develop Steemit.com into an energetic networks web application, growing the limits of network coordination and online talk by consolidating cryptographic forms of money as motivating forces. The organization centers around manageability and decentralization by bringing down run costs and expanding incomes by expanding stickiness through better landing page and network apparatuses, and keeping in mind that continually requesting a protected and safe, customer side marking background.
One of the focal grumblings I reverberate with and hear often is that the 800k steem every month you're spending doesn't appear to enable the anchor to develop. It just crashes the value, brings down our position on CMC, and network financial specialists are getting pulverized by your decisions. It would be a certain something if there were more upgrades coming and mainstreaming was progressing, yet site utilization is down, you nightfall the lead application, and it took a year to work out HF20 at an expense of 10M steem, regardless we don't have an incredible onboarding process. It's unsustainable and indiscreet for financial specialists to help this.
Concern has heightened for both Steemit Inc and the Steem Community.
De-escalation
I kick that it off as an automatic response to Johan's force demand and witnesses surrendering an open discussion with you and picking rather relocate to a stage where you are missing. HF21 that your previous temporary worker set up together dependent on HF9 (which was actualized) forks out Steemit's steem. Couple that with observers all of a sudden forsaking you as a group and I get why you could believe it's a reason for concern.
I can affirm now it was certainly not a goliath trick when it began, yet there's significantly more different now.
In light of that, I'd like to attempt to pull all hands off the BIG RED BUTTON.
If you don't mind stop the power-down
Ned, I've said since the absolute starting point of my voyage here that individuals are the esteem. My essential objective is to keep this network as firmly sew as could be allowed. All the bitcoin forks have redirected an incentive from the fundamental chain. We're on Hardfork 20 and that larger part has stayed with the essential Steem chain. My sole expectation is to ensure that however much of the Steem family remains on one chain as could reasonably be expected.
I don't think I've at any point seen partners so frantic as I have for as long as a couple of weeks. It's gotten to what I'd call an outrageous. I've seen contingents that help a huge number of plans. This is what I'm seeing out there. These are in sequential request of what different individuals imparted to me.
Fork out Steemit accounts
Begin a fork of Steem and fork out their records on that
Work agreeably to take care of the issue
The present state of affairs
I'll talk through those decisions somewhat down underneath, however, your decision to powerdown
Your decision to powerdown is actually improving their need to leave promptly or fork you out quickly. The powerdown is pouring gas on the fire. I'm wagering and trusting that you haven't thought about this viewpoint. In this way, I'm introducing it here and requesting that you please #stopthepowerdown. Halting the shut down will give things a chance to back off, chill, and let more settled heads make sense of a commonly pleasing way ahead on the off chance that one exists.
