I've read sentiment from both sides and I agree that stake should never be frozen if purchased outright or earned but this stake was pre-mined under the premise of being used to run steemit inc with the idea of it being diluted over time. I think the soft fork set a precedent that this is what decentralisation is all about, we shouldn't be bullied or only be at the mercy of someone with deep pockets, we already have that in the current centralised systems and that's why we moved to crypto, so I think it keeps within the spirit of what we want as a community.

Justins money and stake should be no more superior to anyone else which is currently the case and the soft fork shows this community is bigger than any 1 person.

There was terrible communication from Justin and while one interview with andracy may have "cleared" things up, we all know its a lot of lip service.

Justin wants to port over the user base to tron to inflate trons user numbers and transaction numbers thats the bottom line. His got no dapps on his chain that are worth anything to a community let alone be compared to steem so this cut and paste was his idea, regardless of what he says we know that's the end game

If the witnesses acted only in their own self-interests, we as the community could have removed out votes and placed it with others so they also are taking a risk and putting their necks on the line.
