RE: Steemit Doesn't Want You Talking/Posting About Bitconnect! So DON"T!

in #bitcoin8 years ago

Hey man. I watched/listened to your whole video here because I feel the need to follow up with you.

post I made about BitConnect if you haven't yet.After the downvotes I replied to one of your posts with the same message you see in the @craig-grant post. I encourage you to read the whole

At 7 minutes in, you say you don't have anything to do with BitConnect, that you don't work for them. Promoting BitConnect makes you a part of their scheme. They offer large referral bonuses to incentivize you to promote them enthusiastically. But what you're promoting is asking people to enter into a ponzi scheme with their own money. You're profiting, or looking to profit, from enticing people to join a scam. This is why my post is titled "Promoting a scam makes you a scammer."

At 12 minutes in, you say it's not their platform. Ownership in stake (STEEM Power) makes it our platform. It's your platform too.

I just thought it was a little Bullish to take down my post when I hadn't even gotten a chance to respond, not only that I didn't realize or see anything that said you couldn't talk about a specific topic or brand.
Now that i know, I won't be posting anything on steemit regarding Bitconnect or posting videos with bitconnect in it. While I see others are allowed to do such things I won't even argue about it. I just wish we could have had a conversation before it was done. You say its my platform as well but from my end it doesn't really seem that way yet.
Is there any other topics of taboo belonging to cryptocurrency that is not allowed to be spoke/posted here on steemit? I would like to avoid the same issues in the future.
Also I haven't taken anything you have said as disrespect, out of any context, I simply like to create content.By saying i have nothing to do with Bitconnect, means I have nothing to do with them in a sense that I don't work for them, Im not employed by them and anything other than my investments with them is all i have to do with them. Until this morning when i realized my post were removed, it was the first thing I had heard of BitConnect/Scamming in the same sentence. @craig-grant was the first person to get me to look into BitConnect and i liked what I saw.
