I'll ask again: Has TRON abandoned STEEM? Does Steemit Inc still exist?

Does STEEMIT INC still exist?

Are TRX rewards still being accumulated for STEEM posts?

I've asked this before and nobody seemed to know or care... so I'm going to assume TRON has abandoned STEEM...
Cool! But that still leaves the question: If TRON (or Justin Sun anyway) bought STEEMIT INC ... and they've abandoned STEEM... does that mean that STEEMIT INC is also now defunct?

I know that TRX rewards have been halved (and possibly halved again) since the introduction of TRX rewards for STEEM posts... but I haven't seen any TRX rewards in my STEEM linked wallet(s) in about 3 months now.

This happened a lot in the past, and normally due to the account responsible for the transfers to users was empty. It would remain broken for a week or 3, but then STINC would rectify and payouts would resume.
If I'm correct the account for payouts to STEEM users is this one:

.. and it again appears empty, and hasn't done any transactions for 95 days.

on the front-end, it seems that TRX rewards re still accumulating though:

... but nothing being paid out.

Which bring me to my next question

Does STINC (Steemit Inc) still exist? ... and is anyone from that side actively working on/maintaing STEEM?

The HIVE blockchain has grown in leaps and bounds since the split, but there doesn't seem to be any active development happening to STEEM except for a handful of independent developers here and there... even @steemitblog is only making "cookie-cutter" posts.

Another One:

Are there any discord servers (or any platform really) where I can connect with active STEEM developers/users?

Are any of the witnesses doing anything for STEEM independently?

Who has ANY of these answers?

Surely at least the witnesses should be able to answer... so let's hope:

TRX payouts are "paused".

TRX Rewards

Because of the current crypto market conditions it has been decided to pause TRX rewards.This pause will allow Steem / Tron to thoroughly analyze the program’s impact and explore innovative approaches that will provide greater value to our users in the future.During this pause, we encourage users to continue engaging with our platform and exploring all the features and opportunities it offers.

(emphasis added)

I don't know anything about other aspects of the relationship between Steemit and Tron, except that the highlighted portion of the quote above does imply that the relationship still exists (as of Nov. 7).

Hi @remlaps

Thank you very much for pointing that out!

P.S. I see you are a developer as well... do you know of any discord/telegram/whatever groups where STEEM developers gather and chat and where the rest of us can get info and/or ask questions about the direction in which STEEM is headed?

Hi, sorry, but I don't know about any chat groups for Steem developers.

Thank you, friend!
