I have been busy reassessing the progress and performance of whaleshares

We have been able to do great things for many amazing people!

Alongside our major achievements, I have noticed a couple cases of abuse.
I want to thank everyone who pointed out the flaws to me
and aided in resolving the situation whenever it arose.
I truly appreciate your concern for the community and the steemit ecosystem.

I am taking a more central role in whaleshares to insure the asset is properly distributed and accounted for.

Please Note:
The downvote feature has been removed from whaleshares, but is still available with beyondbit at 3x the upvote price

whaleshares are not sold by fuzzy and are always given away without monetary compensation.

There are many ways to earn and win them during contests, giveaways and be awarded them for your efforts.
As the true owners of these tokens, you are able to hold them, trade them in for votes or sell/trade them on the exchange at your leisure.

Each and every person who acquires whaleshares in any way- whether it be via contest, giveaway or purchased on the bitshares exchange- has the freedom to use them in whichever fashion they choose.
We only ask that you use them with dignity and respect others who choose to do the same.

While we cannot control the direct actions of every individual
we will always attempt to do our part to insure that corruption and abuse are never encouraged

Any concerns may be addressed with me in whaleshares discord, or privately in discord or steemit.chat.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask in comments or general chat.
If you don't know what whaleshares are, now is the perfect time to find out!
