We're finally getting somewhere, we've managed to get 2 witnesses back in the top 20, as you can see on the screenshot above. We only need 2 more witnesses to stop the fork. We can do this!
I urge you to immediately stop what you're doing and give your witness votes to the people that are NOT running version 0.22.5! Preferably people that are high on top of the list! Don't forget to use up all of your 30 witness votes!
We're almost there people, definitely check if you have any more witness votes to spend. Also, you may have some alt accounts whihc you have forgotten about, every vote counts.
The Steem blockchain is currently being attacked by a central authority in order to take control of the witnesses. If you are not managing your witness votes, please consider setting @berniesanders as your witness voting proxy by clicking here to help restore the decentralization of Steem.
I did my part, thanks for doing yours! Let's go folks!
At the moment we do see the force of a real community!!!
Hope that it is enough!
Cheers,
Peter
I've been thinking about this and trying to figure out what the next countermove would be. If voting witnesses using exchange STEEM fails I think the @steemitblog post yesterday already signaled a warning using the words "...may be deemed illegal and criminal.". I don't think there's any question about Justin Sun having the money to finance a legal battle. He bought the platform and he might name any of the old witnesses getting back in the top 20 as defendants in a lawsuit if they obstruct what Justin Sun is planning for his new platform.

Had this on lock down since this Tron craziness started. Only voting the old top 20 real conscensus witnesess to thwart this hostile takeover! I also managed to get my mate nickyhavey who has 30000 SP to proxy me today which might make a decent dent, and I've used my new hive community account to vote all the right old school witnesses as well @daan.
By the way, have you seen what I've been up to creating a place for all the poets and short story writers of steem called The Ink Well?
It has been a lot of hard work getting it launched and up and running in 7 days but we're powering along now with 105 subscribers so far and posting weekly newsletters and writers prompts to inspire high quality fiction and poetry to return to steem. Check us out if ya like a good story!
I wrote a short story recently about an Irish drug dealer who lost all his Bitcoin inspired by an article I read in the guardian. The story is called The Fisherman and is one of those gems that just flowed in the writing.
Anyway, hope the day trading is still working out for you. My experiments with trading have been a little hit and miss.

@starworld I don't know about all of them but I do agree that many of them need to go . Justin Sun is steemits only hope of ever growing .And I for one think that a 3 day power down is a great idea .I agree with you that Steemit Witnesses have turned Steemit into a cesspool of fraud and corruption to fill their own pockets . Also most steemins will stand on the sidelines and say nothing against the former witnesses for fear of the former witnesses down voting campaigns . I hear people saying steemit is no longer decentralized well I say it never was when people like themarkymark aka buildawhale could decide what someone should post .
