In this post, I'd like to explain a little about myself and then try to further understand what my current followers as well as the rest of the steem community are interested in.
My friends call me Zoe, pronouced with the y; but spelled without. I'm a female, short... asian (about 5'5") with hair cut short like a boy. It's just easier to deal with in the heat of Malaysia, the country that I am from and live in. I'm a little shy about sharing my face with the world, so I'm just gonna say that I'm a little overweight, but not obese or fat.
I have a passion for photography; as you can see from my previous posts:
Sunset Through the Bamboo Grove
LBD #1
Graffiti in Petaling Street
Mossy Roof Tiles with Wild Orchid Leaves
I have also a growing interest in cryptocurrency despite our politicians possibly deciding to ban it in our country, here is an article and a guide that I have written already:
Herotoken, the Future of Banking in Southeast Asia
Claiming EOS tokens from the ico for those with issues with Metamask
Now, knowing this and the content I have provided... is there any other kind of content that you would be interested in seeing? Guides to photography, more about cryptocurrencies or altcoins? Any other suggestions?
Here's a treat for those who love photos of nature;

Nice post, thanks.
As far as crypto goes:
To me it is Crypto vs non-crypto digital 'money'
But it is also about Owned vs non-owned systems
All we need is an "app" so I can pay you or the merchant.
No need for plastic cards.
And it is this that has the elite bankers scared IMHO
But assuming my coffee shop takes crypto and so does my landlord as they both have an "app" I just transfer crypto as needed. I don't need FIAT unless I want to deal with someone still on that old system $0.02
Yeah I totally understand what you're coming from. Crypto is still an asset that has value, and much like money it is very liquid as there is sufficient acceptance for many people to accept it as a form of payment. The only difference is that crypto isn't regulated like actual money is, there's no real way to tax it (as of now) as such governments and banks are unsure of how to react to it since many people could avoid having to use banks and being taxed through using cryptocurrencies. I guess enabling taxing could be possible in the future, but I'm not too sure about banks. With cryptocurrencies being accepted worldwide, will other currencies slowly become less accepted by the people?
Personally I can't see how they can regulate me sending you a file that has a hash code or something similar in it. just an ascii text string that happens to connect a block chain that means my $2 is now yours.
They can try & stop it &/or tax it.....but I can't see how. I'm sure they will come up with 'rules' &/or arrest people (eg in india?) but this crypto horse has bolted IMHO !!
So no tax, no banks..... ummmm
the world is going to be a very different place :-)
