Nice rhetorical question? :-) This is exactly what is our concern. All kinds of brands will be worried about being in connection with something what is being disputed.. And being silent will not help. Raised questions should be answered by dedicated staff - if there is a power down of big players, and if reason can be getting funds for growth, security etc... there should be also a team focused on cleaning the stairs to make steem serious, answering questions on internet and replying to critique proactively.
Steeming about steemit on steemit will not help steemit at all.
Do you have any opinion on these? We will really appreciate your perspective.
