I ran out of people to tell. Can't keep pushing them. They're either interested, or they're not.
Story. Of. My. Life.
And...I've kind have ramped down how many people I tell. Too many cynical people viewing me telling them about crypto as "me trying to get rich off of them" for some reason, even though I'm a musician in KC networks, been one for years, and I'm telling other musicians about it, about self ownership of production and taking the middleman music industry out. I can't really be bothered with people like that. Maybe it is just the group I'm around.
I kinda wish all those local based crypto groups would have moved to HIVE when they got kicked off of Facebook. I need to find birds of a feather I think.
Yes, attitude "trying to get rich off them" combined with the stigma attached to crypto makes it difficult to even drum up some support even for myself. And I don't know one artist/entertainer/writer/anything that got anywhere depending on friends and family alone. You need a crowd of potentially interested people stumbling into something new. And it's not hard to make that crowd form when they know they're being rewarded for being there, but that message can't come from some random individual on the internet. Trust me on that one because that's all I am here, pointing out some obvious stuff combined with some experience in the biz, but going nowhere. Of course I don't take it personally. It's becoming a form of entertainment for me.
Yeah I guess that's the crux of it, I'm not really a random individual for these people. I've shared stage space with most of these people, been to their studios and vice versa, known them for years. It's just a weird culture that eh, I'm abstaining from more and more.
The onus is on me to find likeminded people interested in crypto locally. Those circles are where I need to be talking about HIVE and posting my LEO blogs, etc.
I don't create crypto content. Rarely consume it.
