This post and the way the Steemit team, handled the incident are admirable. With the current userbase numbering 26,000++, we should all realize that Steemit is comparable to the featal stage of human growth. Weakness and attack vectors are important to be identified and rectified. it is much, much better to discover these ASAP, instead of having them in the future when Steemit userbase has beaten FB's 2,000,000,000++ registered users, which by then this kind of attacks would already be gigantic, if not devastating things to resolve.

So I would like to congratulate @ned, @dan and the whole team instead, for having handled the situation with a lot of grace and by doing so, might have mitigated future bigger attacks.

Here looking up on you guys. -east
