You said underfunded. Are you saying Steemit Inc was losing money monthly? So, I guess that is true based on what they've been saying the past year or longer. So, then they sold their company to Tron who then inherits what could become potential debt, potential bankruptcy, right? I'm ok with ad revenue by the way.
Yes, they were losing money every month, only way they could make payroll was to sell steem every month. The same steem that the community is fighting over right now.
He only did so that he could gain access to his stake that was frozen by the witnesses. He has made it very clear, his actions were simply a response to what was done to his stake that he paid for. He really didn't have much other choice at that point.

How can it be frozen? And if it was frozen, then that was a risk that he took. In life, you take risks and you might lose sometimes.
