What will it take to resolve this situation ?
It has been pointed out to me, that everyone would be better off if I adopt a different approach.
I agree with them. This situation is certainly not good for the platform, I do not believe it helps you and it certainly does not help me!
Lots of people will stop by to see drama, but not many will stay for it, and they certainly wont invest for it.
On a different note, I was pleasantly surprised to hear you say that burning Steem does not increase the price. I agree and have stated such. As an alternative to burning it why not distribute it somehow? It could be be done in lots of ways.
Increased interest = increased demand = increased price
Maybe we both have been wanting the same thing all along and my approach was just lacking.
