Hey, @bashadow.

I'm not sure if it's fun I'm having. I don't think it's total misery, either. Something in between? The problem is, public vs. private communications, and at this point, there's no way to know what to believe.

Stuff about getting out seems a little extreme, and before this, so did forking out Steemit. Now, it doesn't seem so farfetched if all of a sudden somehow, someway, everything begins to migrate to TRON and a coin swap is forced on us.

It's amazing how Justin Sun can be so many things to so many people. From experience, that simply means, no one really knows. The problem I have is, someone is going to be proven right, but no one knows what that's going to look like, and while I don't have a huge stake, it's enough to be concerned over. If it were all earned stake through rewards, not as big a deal. And while I've not put in anything more than we can afford to lose, I'd still rather not lose it, if I have any say in the matter. And right now, it's feeling like I have less say now than I did last Thursday.

I certainly wasn't the first to jump in with impressions. I waited to see what others were saying, did some reading, followed the commentary on the AMA, and so forth. And after it, I'm still unsure of where I should be, other than to try to come up with more posts about something. Hopefully not SteemiTRON, even if that's all people seem to be paying attention to.

It is going to be interesting to see what does happen. I do hope those that started power downs are extremely careful with their keys. It is during times of uncertainty that the con men and women come out looking for easy scared marks. 

That is the only thing I am sure of, there will be attempts to con people and steal from them. If people are concerned and want to be prepared for the worst case scenario, then a power down is a somewhat good idea, if they back it with a lease so they still maintain their vote power and ability to continue to grow and earn then I think that would be a smart move, but I have never leased SP, and do not know if that is a fiscal responsible thing to do right now for people.
