As you may know by now, the Steem blockchain went offline for a few hours last night due to a malformed vesting withdrawal transaction contained in block 23646014.
The user that made the withdrawal is someone that I have worked with before by providing assistance with programming automated bots on the Steem blockchain. Out of respect I chose to withhold the fact that we had a falling out with our agreement that led to me using my access to the account to ensure I was compensated for the scripts @nijeah received from me. When I said I do not own or run the @nijeah account, I mean exactly that.
I would guess @nijeah has made an attempt to resume botting and using vesting withdrawals. What was the purpose of the negative value? I imagine it could have been an error in coding or an attempt at debugging. Either way, I am taking a lot of heat for my association with @nijeah in the past. So far as to say that I have received several threats in PM on discord. The harassing users have been blocked because I just don't feel like putting too much energy into this.
Regardless, my rankings in witness ladder have suffered greatly. Despite all of the contributions I have provided, and am currently working on, loose speculation around some bullshit drama has affected my position. Understandable I guess, it is your free will to vote how you please afterall.
Tomorrow is July 4th. I will not be letting FUD and nonsense get in the way of my life. If you aren't satisfied, then I don't know what to tell you.
