While they are resolving problem, they should rethink POW rewards, give more to miners and make more secure network

POS is a bullshit from the start, anyone defending it at full is just biased, POS should and will never survive without secure POW!

That would be nice but the Steemit platform has some other major security issues:

Depending on how a transaction was constructed, you can change the Security Keys of another user's account without their permission. See error log below:
