Steemit will try to spin this as protecting their platform, but it's theft. Totally different to Hive selectively gifting tokens. Nobody lost a single Steem in that fork. Steem is a platform of censorship and centralised control where those who do not stir things up can milk the system. It's really sad to see it go that way after all we did to build and promote it.

Thanks for all your efforts in running Steemfest and helping to make Steem great. It must hurt to see that all trashed out of spite.
