RE: Is the Blockchain Industry a Joke?

in #cryptocurrency5 years ago

did you just used that theory about news titles ending with question mark to your advantage? :D

so almost a hour later, i feel a bit smarter. could have take some notes form the article, try to write something smart, but being more than 2 years on steem/hive i still feel crypto stupid, and it would be a waste of time. maybe i am the example of transitional phase in evolution from blockchain/crypto nerds users to blockchain/crypto unaware people using the technology :D

i am for sure a member of a cult, and i feel author is right about, as you called them, fake communities that don't care about technology and are there just for pump and dump. What i found interesting with hive community is that a lot of users were ready to defend the use case of the platform (blockchain) when they could maybe earn more if they pushed the fake justin sun agenda. or maybe i am just naive and it was all a plan to double the money.

Sort:  

I often use questions for titles as they express what I'm thinking at the time. Many of my posts are ways to get my thoughts out of my head and into the world for discussion.

Not sure what you mean about doubling the money as Steem isn't even a blockchain anymore. Any funds there are not secure, in my opinion. I'm selling them as soon as my power downs allow. I have no interest in holding pretend blockchain tokens.

Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no".

  • Is the Blockchain Industry a Joke? No
  • Power Chat -- Is Anarcho-Capitalism Realistic? No?
  • Is It Selfish to Help Yourself First? No
  • Is Bill Gates Thanos? No? (did not read it, so not sure :) )

It is just a conspiracy theory :D i am really not sure what steem is right now. i had a thought of milking, did some weeks of scheduled posts but it just felt blah. i need to see what exchange is taking it and sell this last 3 weeks of powerdown (was lazy, did not want to register to new exchanges after the hf)
