There was a post earlier that was concerning to me.
It appears, @aggroed, woke up this morning to see his ranking in the Witness list drop from the top to outside the Top 20. The vote from Freedom was removed from his account meaning that he suffered a significant drop.
I am here to ask everyone who has not already done so to take the time and give Aggroed a Witness vote. If you have a slot left in your 30 allocated, this is a deserving individual.
Why should he get anyone's vote?
I will tell you, over the last year and a half on this blockchain, I am hard pressed to think of anyone more dedicated to the Steem blockchain than him. At every level, he is doing what he can to improve this place.
He is one of the co-founders of @steemmonsters with @yabapmatt. This is one of the leading applications on this blockchain, garnering recognition outside of Steem.
Through the Peace, Abundance, and Liberty channel on Discord, he has spread that message which should ring true with every Steemian. There are a couple of programs he hosts on there that help to keep users informed as to what is taking place.
One of the last episodes I listened to was one with Ned on it. He held Ned's feet to the fire with his questioning. In short, he, in a nice manner, brought up the point of whether Ned was fit to run things day-to-day and handle all that went along with it. A couple weeks later, it seems the board of Steemit Inc came to the same conclusion.
Now I must state that Aggroed's intention was not to make Ned look bad nor to pick a fight with him. Simply put, he was trying to look out for the community. This is what he stands for. Steemit Inc let down a lot of people and, as the head of it, much of the blame falls at Ned's feet. Aggroed was trying to drive home the point that something needed changing for the sake of the community.
He was one who started the Minnow Support Project and is now working on developing (along with Yabapmatt I believe) a token creation system and DEX.
I will let him explain his Steem "resume" to you:

This is not a slap against any other Witnesses but there cannot be 20 who are better for Steem than Aggroed.
Thus, I urge everyone to make sure they give him a Witness vote.
He is deserving of it and we are better served as a community with him in that position.
