Here's the thing: I won't tell you to invest in PIVX. I shouted from the rooftops to my friends to invest in bitcoin and many, unfortunately, only took me seriously once it peaked out above $1,000 at the end of 2013.
I mean no implication whatsoever, I'm just curious: is this paid promotion? It comes across as such. If it's not, my apologies.
If it is, good pitch, but you should probably disclose.
No, certainly not paid at all. I've never been paid to post anything on Steemit (other than by the rewards pool, of course). If I was paid, I would certainly disclose it.
Right before going to bed, I got tipped 11 PIVX after sharing it in the PIVX slack chat. While I slept someone tipped me another 5. I did not write this with the intention of getting paid in PIVX but because it's a fantastic altcoin story (so far) which would not have been possible without Steemit.
We need to get you writing for us, then. You're a natural pitchman. :)
Hah! Thanks. I try to write with passion, that's for sure. My older brother sometimes tells me to stop preaching though. The things I really get excited about pitching is voluntaryism, improving epistemology, and morality. I think cryptocurrency can help in all three areas.
