5 Amazing People You Need to Meet [Part 3]

[derekareith]

Check out the past entries in this series, and fill out your follows with some quality people that I think are getting overlooked on Steemit:

Part 1

Part 2

Kenny Palurintano - @kennyskitchen

Kenny is a rare breed of humanity.  He sees problems in the world and doesn't stomp his feet and try to wish them away with his anger.  He gets to work!  Kenny has helped organize homeless outreach events that have helped to feed thousands of people.  He also feeds people's minds by being a freedom activist at all waking hours, even handing out books of Adam Kokesh's FREEDOM!  If you're following me, and not Kenny, well, you can't see me, but I'm shaking my head in disappointment.

Allow Kenny to introduce himself to you!

And be sure to check out Kenny and @bridleswan talk Steemit at the Jackalope Festival:

Randy Clemens - @randyclemens

Randy is the author of three cookbooks.  He's one of 20,000 members of the Free State Project, which is an initiative for like minded people to move to my current home state of New Hampshire, in order to reduce the size and scope of the government.  Randy, like Kenny, is a fellow liberty activist, who works hard, productively pushing our message while living a life of freedom.  Check out the "freedom welcome wagons" at FSPmovers.com:

Take a couple minutes to meet Randy!

Limitless - @limitless

Do you have trouble explaining the economics behind cryptocurrencies to new people?  Fear not!  Limitless posted his opus on the topic, and I invite everyone to take a read.  Limitless oozes creativity and has a thirst for using his entrepreneurial skills to reshape the world around him.  And like me, Limitless can't stand watching Youtube videos at normal speed.  You've got to check him out!

Check out his latest post to see why you should follow him!

Alex Sterk - @blocktalk

Alex has been doing a Youtube show called #Blocktalk for quite some time now.  Alex is unique in the Bitcoin and crypto space, because he actually asks the hard questions in his interviews.  He doesn't let his guests off easy, even if it gets a little uncomfortable.  As a part of The World Crypto Network, Alex also co-hosts Bitcoin & Altcoin Trading Talk with William Kehl of Coinigy and The Rational Investor, Brian Beamish.  Check out his interview with @ned and @dan!

Meet Alex and follow his blog!

Thomas Hunt - @madbitcoins

Speaking of The World Crypto Network, how can I not mention Thomas Hunt?  Thomas has been an extremely valuable member to the Bitcoin community for years, and now he's a part of what we're doing here at Steemit.  While the cast of guests on his shows have been quite skeptical of Steemit, Thomas has been busy stuffing his pockets with Steem Dollars, while Tone Vays is busy telling @blakemiles84 and the rest of us that it doesn't work.  I'm pretty sure Purse.io accepts the bitcoin Thomas gets from his work on Steemit, maybe Tone could explain why they do. XD

 

Follow @madbitcoins and check out the latest episode of MadSteemit!

I'll be back with some more in the near future, so stay tuned and keep connecting with great people!  Let me know if there is anyone I am missing out on and I'll consider them for my next post!

Thank you for the shoutout Derek!!! Followed this grand people!)

[blocktalk]

Thanks for the kind words Derek and remember it's only awkward if you make it awkward lol

Seriously though I take pride in my questioning skills so I really appreciate the recognition.

[kennyskitchen]

Thanks so much for the mention @derekareith! I know I'm already following at least 2 of those people, gonna have to get the other 2 :-)

[kennyskitchen]

@derekareith @madbitcoins @blocktalk @limitless @randyclemens Just wanted to let you all know I shared this post to a couple pages and 8 Steemit groups on FB, plus in the #minnowsunite chat. If we all share it to whatever other platforms we operate on, we can all help each other get more visibility :-)

[derekareith]

Thank you so much Kenny! I got it up on my main twitter and my steemitposts twitter bot. :)

I normally don't shill my steemit posts, but I made a post a few days back about education through the Steemit model. It's getting more support than I could have ever imagined. I'd love for more people to find out about it and get involved. Making this real would literally be my dream come true:

Thanks for the shout out! Also going to check out everyone else.

[derekareith]

@kdnolan actually just reached out to me to help with the Steemit University idea we've talked about. Check him out:

Nice, I'll take a look. Btw, I'd like to nominate @lpninja for the next spotlight. He's doing an amazing job with the ElectricChain.org project and has plenty of interesting experiences and wisdom.

[derekareith]

I haven't had a chance to thoroughly look over the solarcoin project you mentioned. It's on my list though. I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions, but it sounds very intriguing so far.

All fiat currencies are subject to fading out of existence, but energy will always have value. SolarCoin is a proof of stake time coin that is backed by a team with solid economic and technical abilities and promotes the positive externality of solar energy generation.

Happy to meet @lpninja and I look forward to reading more into the whole project the next few days :)

[randyclemens]

I appreciate being included @derekareith! And thanks for showing me some other accounts that I've now followed!

Be on the lookout for some more great content and ideas from me soon :)

[derekareith]

Happy to give you some shine, bro!

BTW, I got like half my restaurant on Steemit now, so the owners should be coming up next, once we get the time to sit down and talk about it. Then we can start planning some fun things. I'm thinking I can convince them of doing a Steemit discount. Just mention us on steemit and get half off an app or something like that. plus, we'll even upvote you. :)

I'll eventually get it on our email blast, etc. We're one of the biggest restaurants in the state, so I think it would be great!

[laissezfairedr]

Awesome collection! :)

[derekareith]

Thanks! Be sure to check the other 2 as well, Tatiana needs a lot more love on this site and so do the rest :)

[randyclemens]

I would love to read more from @tatianamoroz!

[laissezfairedr]

Same here!

@derekareith I just wanted to let you know that my new post "The 40 anarchists you want to follow on Steemit!" is up, and you're on the list :-) You can find it here

[derekareith]

Just saw, man! Frickin awesome! I just followed everyone on there and like I've been saying Steemit is an extremely unique opportunity for anarchism. We have the potential to do amazing things if we network and support one another! Can you imagine if in a couple years Steemit is Facebook-sized and anarchists are the ones leading the discussions? That would never happen on any major platform ever before. But now, we can actually make it happen! Great job!

[kennyskitchen]

Yep, this is definitely a huge game-changer :-) So excited I got on when I did, so I can help shape & support the growth!
