I admit my eyebrows shot up at the news of your resignation but I am not surprised.

You are a brilliant mind and a philanthropic spirit.

Steemit is a wonderful project which has shown hundreds, perhaps thousands of people like me, who want something more than the status quo. Because of Steemit, I've had a taste of the "forbidden fruit" of a decentralized system. I am forever changed because of opportunity and potential which I never knew existed until I made my first ALT coin exchange.

I am mystified

I do not understand why so many people believe there must have been a huge disagreement which prompted your resignation. Of course, I am not privy, but my best guess is you've set out to do what you meant to do here.

Mission Accomplished

I want to believe that your exit is a sign that we've incubated enough for you to cut the umbilical cord, freeing you up to birth another baby somewhere in the world of zeroes and ones.

I sincerely hope it is as simple as that.

I want to believe that you pride yourself on excellent work and have taken us as far as you can with the parameters you were given. The developmental foundation is there. It's the community's turn now.

I endeavor to be a good steward of Steemit

My heart is here. My creative re-birth is here. I dare to dream because you have vision.

We've got a very good core community and solid witnesses who want what's best for the platform and its currency. I hope we exceed your expectations.

Best wishes to you @dan
