I realize you're trolling a bit, and I like your overall position, but you're wrong about validating it as a tit for tat.
Those 64 people got their assets stolen from them by a centralized governance scam on STEEM.
Basically our whales just lost 6M in assets by theft from a competing DPOS project.
Those funds were intercepted and now it's sort of up to those people to negotiate the release of their own funds, with Bittrex and Steemit.
I thought that was the point of the SEC intervention.

As far as what you and I are going to do about it -- we ought to just try to make HIVE have so much value that STEEM dies off.
In this way, the value goes higher, and then people can claim back their lost funds in that pathway.
The difficult part isn't about what public opinion is about this thing -- it's about how those people are going to get their assets back -- they are the ones on the line for it.
