What I believe is that the steemcommunity reacted to the news quite strongly. They saw this whole thing centered from a steem point of view. It's important to look at the big picture which is a battle for predominance in the crypto world between Etherium, EOS and Tron for who will have the best networks for Dapps. 

The merger makes a lot of sense in terms of business. EOS will have Voice, Tron needs a social media as well. What's the biggest one out there and cheap to buy? Steemit. 

Social media needs users that post stuff. Without users, social media is worth nothing at all. I'm quite confident that like dlive, poloniex and bittorent the core of steemit will not be altered. Over all I'm quite confident that the purchase of Steemit by Tron was very positive for the development of the platform and also for the value of Steem.

I'm not good at these times. I hope they can agree. Create more wealth for steem. So that everyone can be happy

Yup, I agree. As much as I'm not too comfortable in this position we're put in, cutting off whale money(that we all used to dream enter into steem) would only prove steem to be the piraya the outside world thinks it is.

Plus I'm sure if smts or se tokens ever take off then some more wealthy whales might decide to outdo Justin. What then?

I'm still super weary tho, and do feel the need for a contingency plan.

We gotta trade carefully, so much so that this whole debacle is sure to make some heads explode in the next few weeks.

I agree that being civil is important and could have legit implications. 

>And I fully support his words, hoping that more people will share this mature approach.

I think this depends on what happens , if someone or a group try to "take over" the community should be able to go do their own thing.  However, that doesn't justify bad behavior or people being insulting or mean, it just means we have the right to do our own thing if we don't like how those who are in control are doing things.

Will check out the video you included when I get a chance. Thanks!

I've seen in the incognito mode your communication with the muted guy by @dcooperation . As an admin of the community, I think I have to right to mute anyone I want. I want to let you know @crypto.piotr since you tagged me and @juanmolina who replied to xplosive that the guy is spreading negativity in our community and under my posts and sometimes even the comments of my posts. I'm positive about steem and I don't need to see someone spreading negativity. I just don't have time for that. Especially when someone keep repeating the same again and again under each post. Take a look at his comments and you will see how he's spaming the same idea everywhere. Thanks for you attention.

@tipu curate

If scenario 2 of [my recent post](https://beta.steempeak.com/hive-167922/@culgin/2-possible-scenarios-of-how-steem-to-tron-token-swap-can-happen) plays out I will remain optimistic. However, people hate uncertainty and as long as there are no clear plans announced, it is normal that there will be a lot of FUD. Looking forward to future announcements, right now I am cautiously optimistic.

> Justin and his TEAM do not know YET what to do with the purchased product and it's community

I assume they have an idea but it is Business Secret. I'm sure it is not a coincidence that they announced that on the day Voice.com started. I hope they are planning something great, a big social media platform or so.

Steem has many errors and after Hard Fork in August all got worst. Without real plans to change things.  A greater change can be good news. I don't think the buyer wants to destroy what he bought.

Hello my friend [@crypto.piotr](https://steemit.com/@crypto.piotr) thank you so much for sharing with me your publication..!!

About this new era [@justinsunsteemit](https://steemit.com/@justinsunsteemit) is not an enemy for all of us, he has one vision about Steemit and steem.

He is a great investor and I’m sure he won’t destroy his business and throw away his own money.

I can see a powerful future for all of us.

On another hand, those rude people who speak bad things about Justin, don’t have any idea why they are on the platform.

Talking bad thing and speaking about others don’t expect good things, but for sure get a lot of enemies.

Just we can think about why Justin is Young Millionaire. Because is smart about this technology and can see the future about something..!!

The only thing I can say is: Future is changing And is called Steemit and TRON.

We can take both with open and positive minded ..!!

(We've all learned that Justin Sun (representing TRON) bought STINC and this day will be surely remembered by many.)

I just joined steemit and i guess this news about the new buy is trending so well. I hope for the best here.

If you do not mind, i was checking through communities as i joined and i realized a lot of communities but i decided to join the ones that hold the same value for what i value which is science and tech. What caught my attention the most is the level at which members of the community interact with themselves via comments, i must say i love this and will like to be a part of the community. 


I read through the community blog and i must say that i am impressed. I hope i can write in this community since i love science and tech. I will appreciate if i get such interaction as well.


Thanks.

Yes, I am happy to meet you @crypto.piotr, I want to help you, and join the community that you manage.

Thanks @crypto.piotr That's what I decided a very long time ago even before this takeover happened, to be optimistic. I always hoped that things would get better and bigger. There is no need to cry over spilt milk or to worry how to cross a bridge far away from me. So we keep our fingers crossed and allow the new owners to let us know what direction they want this platform to go.

Thanks, Charles

> ARE WE AN ASSET OR LIABILITY?

Neither, we are the skeleton, the heart, the blood! Without us (community), STEEM could never exist. In some sense we are both, the balance and the ability do disagree and find solutions is what makes the balance right. Without it, STEEM is not STEEM.

> UNWANTED BEHAVIOURS

This was in fact surprising to me. I was thinking it would be a LOT worse that it was to be honest. Nevertheless, we should all try to help. Be positive, bring the right attitude to the game, even if all you want is to "F... everyone, in defense of ...". Right things and symbiosis, will prevail.

> After watching interview with @exyle and @andrachy ( link to the video on 3speak here ) I DECIDED TO BE OPTIMISTIC.

This is real proof of the influence and role we all have on STEEM and how much each of us decisions can shape the future of blockchain technology. It might be super undervalued as many forecast, but it still has (in my view) a tremendous historical value of people wisdom's, skills and public recorded experiences.

Later in history these recorded proofs will have an huge impact on how the blockchain will evolve.

Hello friend @crypto.piotr.

> After watching interview with @exyle and @andrachy (link to the video on 3speak here) I DECIDED TO BE OPTIMISTIC.

I think it's the best we can do, whatever decision Justin and his team make, logically it will affect the ecosystem in a positive or negative way, worrying excessively or making hasty decisions doesn't help us at all.

Thanks for sharing!

> Our response will partly determine our own future. And comments like "You fool [Justin]. I don't need your fucking money." or "WE ARE YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE, JUSTIN!" are not the way to go. Weather we like it or not - such remarks are not going to help our community to survive or progress.


Very vital observation cum admonition here. We need to come together, work together, and progress together. And clearly, we can't do that fighting the new party in power - as you once put it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Cheers!

PS: Post resteemed.

Estoy de acuerdo con su opinión. No creo que la violencia verbal sea el camino para ninguna solución. Y especialmente cuando somos desconocedores de una verdad. Si él compró sabe lo que hizo, tendrá ya sus estrategias fijadas, sus proyectos y demás. Los que no sabemos nada, solo tenemos conjeturas, somos los que inventamos y elucubramos. Después de leer y leer, creo que me siento más tranquila y solo me resta esperar.
Gracias por tu opinión y por compartirla. 

I agree with your opinion. I don't think verbal violence is the way to any solution. And especially when we are unaware of a truth. If he bought he knows what he did, he will have his strategies set, his projects and so on. Those of us who know nothing, we only have guesses, we are the ones who invented and elucidated. After reading and reading, I think I feel calmer and I just have to wait.
Thank you for your opinion and for sharing it.

Yeah! Let's be optimistic :D

Life is full of changes and *Changes are good*.

I can only say my friend @crypto.piotr that I have hope that what is coming is good. I know that there is a lot at stake, both for the new owner and for those of us who have invested time (which is not recovered) and for those who have fortunes here at steemit. 

Time will tell what will happen.

Dearest friend Piotr:

I loved this different approach that you have given to the situation.

So far we have only seen apocalyptic publications about the purchase / sale of Steemit. Then this vision that you have given him serves as a respite within so much tribulation.

I think that in addition to having acquired a valuable company, Sun also acquired a commitment to an invaluable human asset. The creative potential, together with the transnational human relationships that have developed during these years of history, are the driving force behind Steemit.

The nature of the human being is destructive, of hatred and resentment. Revanchist
Then within all this mass of people we will always find shit like this:

<sub>[Source](https://steemit.com/steem/@lordbutterfly/q5wm6a)</sub></center>

Such people are the ones that discredit our beloved platform.
And like him there are many here.

That challenging attitude towards Sun that you have described is, to say the least, childish.

I have managed to clear my mind and turn away those dark visions about the future of steemit. Currently there is a lot of light in my eyes and especially, a lot "Hope."

Your friend, Juan

I agree with your positivity.

Hello Friend @crypto.piotr

I share your opinion and also share your optimism.
Anyway the cards are already on the table and although we do not like it we must wait for the following movements to know which other card the witnesses will play.
We must continue waiting for more news or more information about it.

Someone told me in a post that nobody invests to lose. true?


Saludos.

It is good to be optimistic, and most likely to cautious at the same time.

It's like your daughter brought her boyfriend/ fiancé home; looks cheerful and promising, but as parents they will be cautiously optimistic.

The steem blockchain to the community is their life and their (project) child of labour, and Justin is the fiancé that gives a lot of positive promises, but only time will tell.

Did you manage to hear the map waves witness discussion right after AMA?

If so, you will see the optimistic _parent_ and the minority percentage the very worried parent / a little panicky parent's reaction there.

That's how beautiful the community of STEEM is, and I hope Justin and many more who are new to this blockchain will learn to appreciate its presence.

What? Me worried.?!?
Seriously though, anytime a massive amount of content is purchased it's a very good thing. That goes double for things that are bought online. There's just so much content out there that so easily accessible online so that should be chosen amongst them all is a big deal. if you have a hard time grasping this concept, just think about the wars when the libraries were rated throughout history and how much that meant to civilizations. Yes I am putting this deal on that magnitude!
Of course, how conquerors treat their scribes is probably another story. But I got to think that there's at least a token, pun intended, raise?
