RE: Is it okay to stake the bare minimum HP and withdraw everything else?

in Hive Polls2 months ago

Agreed.

Except this:

We need more education

They know exactly what they are doing.
Authors who can barely write a coherent sentence can still figure this out in minutes.

Sort:  

I suppose you are talking about "old accounts" and I do agree that they KNOW exactly what they are doing... IMO, there is no chance to "educate" them, and there is no sense in doing that at all...

But, I know that many newcomers have no idea how HIVE works, and they think that the system is upvoting their posts and putting money in their pockets... We can't "force" them to power up or to do anything, but we can show them how it works, and the long-term benefits...

no no. I mean new accounts, mainly.
They might not get the intricacies of HIVE, but everybody knows how money works.
Even the dumbest cunt.

I can't and don't want to force anything.
But I can choose what and who to support.

Maybe they do know how money works, but I saw many newbies having 0 idea of curation rewards on HIVE, and from WHERE the value of upvotes are coming... That happened here in the comment section, Ecency Discord, and even in some of the HHHLive shows, too...

I can't and don't want to force anything.
But I can choose what and who to support.

Agree with that... Maybe I'm too naive, but I like to give everyone a chance before giving up on them... To show them how it works, and when they know it, they can decide what they want to do... No forcing anything...

but I saw many newbies having 0 idea [...] from WHERE the value of upvotes are coming

They fooled you.

They can figure out how to trade/swap the coins and cash them out. But they don't understand how social media likes work and that some display 1.00$ and other 0.10$ ?
Nah, bro.

I just unfollow and they immediately hop in my comments and ask what's up.
And then pretend they don't understand.
Yeah, right.
Makes me angry - I sometimes just mute them at that stage. Can't deal with those silly 'I am so stupid, lol' - games.
I hate that mindset. Just writing about it now annoys me.
