Thanks for being on top of this. It's understandable that app developers will want to rebrand to a name not tied to a particular platform.

I'm going to Hive, because developers and users will be more motivated to contribute to the platform when it isn't dominated by one company anymore.

As for the names, I like Peak.network. And if I have to choose a second one Peaksocial.com.

My concerns are as you said, what happens to the images hosted on Steemit? It should be possible to rehost them automatically while they're still online, but it won't be easy. Will our passwords be safe if they've been used on Steemit? I would change them to be on the safe side. And what is Steemconnect going to do? They're an essential service, but they're not very communicative.

Update: Steemconnect is taken over by eSteem and will migrate as HiveSigner.
