Witnessess, you f**** up... It is probably time to take responsability for your own mistakes.

Disclaimer - This is not about if it was right or wrong to freeze Steemit stake. It's an even bigger problem

So, i wasn't going write again about Tron subject anymore, but a post from Hive account@lukestokes caught my attention.

https://steempeak.com/steem/@lukestokes/fact-steemit-sybil-attacked-the-steem-blockchain

On this post, Hive account@lukestokes talks about Sybil attacks, and is an interesting read, specially if you don't know what a Sybil attack is.

But this got me thinking:

Witnessess were given control of the chain for so long but never discussed to improve the governance system to protect the chain from this situation?

Well, from what i read, they did.

But here is the catch:

As Hive account@valued-costumer and Hive account@onthewayout comment on the same post, there were some discussions that happened in the past, but what were the witnessess position?

"Nah... It's fine. No need to change anything"

To me this is a really big red flag on this situation.

While what Justin Sun did was a shitty move, and put Steem blockchain on a dangerous state, it all go back to what the witnessess didn't do.

Witnessess failed at their job of securing the blockchain

That is a fact.

And yet, i still haven't seen any witness coming foward and admit that they fucked up.

So, maybe this is a perfect time for that.

I stand with and support what the community is doing, voting and not making possible to Justin Sun implement his own Hard Fork but,

Unless the witnessess take a stance and admit that they failed at their job, even if things get back to what is was, there is nothing stopping it from happening again.

That's all i have for today.
