Yeah it's sad and hilarious that people still try and use faucets while they can just get on Steemit and way outperform here.
Same as with home mining... I've already made more on Steemit than I owned in BTC from home mining when I did it in 2013/2014 and hodled all the way through the dip.
A while ago I posted on Reddit and spoke about Steemit in a thread about faucets and home mining. You know my writing style, I tried to paint an objective and clear picture. Unfortunately I was downvoted and insulted and told to 'go fuck off with your scamcoin'. Home-mining and faucet-clicking is obviously much 'better'......
I don't understand why it's so hard to convince people to try Steemit. I've tried to convince half a dozen people in RL too and none of them even made an account yet.
Lots of interesting questions, few good answers.
Steem is often treated as some sort of ponzi-lite because of the inflationary model.
Paul Watson mentioned steemit and d.tube in an interview with stefen molyneux ( jump to the 57 minute mark, in video below ). They are going to continue fighting the youtube censors, more publicity that way (Streisand effect). There are already quite a bit of natural law libertarians media personalities tapping into steem, but if something as large and controversial as infowars made the switch-well just be glad you got in early. Those who called it a scam coin could have played around in the steemit social expirement and hodl without scamming anyone, and let reality be the judge. But they made their choice.
