I maybe a little more cautious after reading Eli Powell's message. Sounds like a hostile takeover and there is no decision or voting of Steemit sale from most active users/witnesses on the platform. Ned did little to progress Steemit since his focus has been on EOS. Yet here we are watching this unfold. I do hope Justin can bring a lot more prospect to steemit since Tron has a bigger eco-system.

And yes the money element sounds positive to steem and steemit since Justin has put a price tag on purchasing the assets it will at least assure us there is a bottom value of steem. Before that it was all end users putting pint size money into steem compare to what I would imagine Justin's larger investment into it. This hopefully will lure in more buyers and up we go with steem.

I end on a positive note. I have read from enough steemians that I feel if all this does not work out there is enough strength amount the most active to be able to sustain a fork or separate steem eco-system. I have a lot of faith in the steemians being able to make it all work out. I have no doubt this will all work out for us. Whether we call our tokens steem or something else each of us brings value to the table and as a collaboration it is much stronger than what any merger has on us. Thanks!
