@silverstackeruk - I think you may have gotten some bad info. As far as I know, they're not moving Steemit from STEEM to EOS. What all the talk is about is EOS releasing a dapp similar to steemit possibly called, "MEOS". Dan Larimer had sort of dubbed it, 'steemit 2.0' but it's a completely different project apart from steemit.

That said, I do share some of your general feelings of doubt. The thing that always gets me is that STEEM has dapps that actually work. Sure they could be better, and they are always being worked on and improved... but really the talk about a new 'steemit 2.0' is just that, it's all talk.
