#STEEM has successfully defeated the hackers & all funds are super #SAFU. @SteemNetwork and @steemit community is now stronger than ever since we united & solved the difficulties! Full details below👇
@SteemNetwork @steemit (1/9) On Feb 22, some malicious hackers froze 65 million #STEEM legally owned by Steemit, the core STEEM developers. When we found out, the hackers already hijacked STEEM & threatened to nullify the existing STEEM. We had a difficult choice.
@SteemNetwork @steemit (2/9) We double confirmed w/ lawyers & were told this was definitely a criminal activity from the hackers who froze over 10 million dollars worth of STEEM & threatened to destroy the assets. The risk of nullifying the #STEEM network puts every STEEM holders’ interest in danger.
@SteemNetwork @steemit (3/9) Such actions are against every aspect of the core value of humanity & decentralization & sanctity of private property. We needed to act immediately to safeguard the #STEEM blockchain & ecosystem when we still had the chance.
@SteemNetwork @steemit (4/9) We knew it would be a complicated process since we needed to control the network for a short period of time, but we had no choice. Our sole intent was to secure @steemit’s stake & #STEEM holders’ interest. Our intention was not to control the STEEM network.
@SteemNetwork @steemit (5/9) We will commit to withdrawing the votes ASAP once we're sure malicious hackers can’t sabotage #STEEM anymore & will give the voting rights back to the community. All exchanges’ votes will be withdrawn soon. Shoutout to all the exchanges & parties who helped us save STEEM!
@SteemNetwork @steemit (6/9) To avoid hackers’ retaliation & to protect the safety of the overall network, we had no choice but to keep our actions under cover. However, transparency is our #1 priority so we shared a post w/ details right after securing the network. steemit.com/tron/@steemitb…
@SteemNetwork @steemit (7/9)Misleading comments re us collaborating w/ exchanges on a hostile takeover is false. Our intention was never to take over the network & all parties' votes will be withdrawn. We wanted to protect the sanctity of private property & the interests of all from malicious hackers.
@SteemNetwork @steemit (8/9) We’re devoted to the continued development of the @SteemNetwork, bringing more developers, users and content to @Steemit, and more rewards to the community members. Super excited about the upcoming roadmap steemit.com/tron/@steemitb…
@SteemNetwork @steemit (9/9) My deepest apologies to the community, all the exchanges, & various parties involved for this disturbing hack incident. Thanks for your support to @steemit and @SteemNetwork . Always STEEM ON! @cz_binance @binance @HuobiGlobal @Poloniex
