Have you seen the amount of posts with Justin Sun as the main feature? I have three with this one it is just fun to write about it because everything is just speculation. Nobody knows what this guy is going to do, I for my part hope for something positive that will bring new life to Steemit.

Just a few months back many of the guys who are most worried at the moment went on with their hard fork which really screwed up a lot of people who started receiving less than the little they had been receiving. I guess this really was a bad practical joke played by @ned to all of you, he probably already knew what was going to happen and any changes brought by a hard fork would have no relevance to him.

That hard fork only had the effect of letting the big players make more money, reduce the amount of active accounts and reduce the number of articles, now just what will Justin Sun do? There lies the real question and what has the big guys here worried, you see it is very different to play the bully than to be bullied, which I think is what is feared by many.

I just read a comment by a long time user who hopes that the great witnesses and the developers will continue pointing Steemit in the right direction. This is actually very wishful thinking, witnesses will do what Justin says or out they go, remember he has the 75m voting power. As for the devs I too wish at least a few will continue working but again that depends on Mr. Sun and what he feels like doing.

I have been in situations like this before, the company I worked for has suffered several big changes at the very top, but actually the guys who got hit were the big players small guys like me didn't even feel anything. But just on a positive note I do believe Mr. Sun will not want to screw up Steemit and I think something good could come out of it. See, change happened just that it wasn't the SMT's.
