Are you REALLY against the softfork ideologically? Question with me for a moment. I understand where you're coming from, because we're both likely from the early days of Bitcoin. The philosophical issue I'd like to bring up here is this: Which ethic takes precedence? Non-alteration of accounts, or adherence to decentralization, anti-censorship, and will of the community? In this situation, we will have greater freedom as a net total if we lock or banish the SiNMS versus than if we allow this sale. I often favor anarcho-capitalistic ideals, but it can only go so far. At a certain point, we have to be people who are free to fight for our future, instead of machines running immutable code. Please question your values. My initial view of this situation changed when I remembered my humanity.

`instead of machines running immutable code` Are you telling us that we should rely on `Human Nature` instead of codes that have no emotions and won't bury people alive just because of greed and gluttony? I think it is more human to protect people against it by writing proper codes. You can't be `anarcho-capitalistic` then mention the word `our` which reflects a social contract. The code is there to level the field for fair competition, not to execute the emotional outcomes of someone who hasn't had his morning coffee. And just one thing: Non-alteration of accounts = Adherence to decentralization and anti-censorship. You can't just split those concepts.

I'm not anarcho-capitalist. I'm just a light sympathizer. I do not believe in ideologies. As for code and nature, what makes you think the SiNMS is code, and not a result of greed? The existence of the SiNMS has always been wrong. It should have been wiped the moment it was discovered, or better: It should never have existed. The witnesses were too passive. But it's not too late. Every Steem that was ninja-mined should be banished to @null. If you disagree, then vote that way. Or better: Question your ethics.

Everything that is happening here is a reflection of the Steem Blockchain code. We need to make a difference between everyone who ninja mined (including many current TOP 20 witnesse - Hypocrisy intensified), an investor who bought a large amount of stack, and anyone who benefited from the status quo then was suddenly enlighted when he realized that his position is threatened. But why it should be wiped out exactly? is there a rule or a written statement against it? Some projects go with the ninja mine to reserve a portion of the token to finance the development of the chain and pay the shareholders. Would that be a problem if the amount was small? Is Satoshi Nakamoto getting the first 50 Bitcoin considered as ninja mine? Ethics don't have a place here since we all come from different cultures, hence why the filed should be leveled for fair play. Apart from a small bump in price. There is no difference between Tron buying the stake from the market or STINC.

Just wrote a post on the burn. Agreed, it should have been dealt with years ago.
