"Invested" is such a liberal term being tossed around here. I don't think I can grasp what's going on here.
Instead of building value, he tanked his own investment by constantly cashing out. The solution? Quick, grab all the deteriorating tokens to recoup losses, $60 at a time. Or maybe he's just bad at handling money? It makes so much sense to spend thousands on a trip so he could somehow "recoup" losses he made on Steem, $60 at a time.
Isn't there a point when it's easier to power down and leave? So, the future "bag holders" can at least try to make something out of this place? Nope. The solution is to mine Steem harder.
That's #oldsteem think for ya. Noted how he doesn't dare to lash back at people like @trafalgar and @smooth. Guess what? They ain't gonna stop flagging him.
I expected this to happen, and the sooner the better IMO. These battles need to be fought now. All of the entitled children need to be exposed for what they are so they can be singled out. This isn't going to change my behavior one bit. I'm not buying top ramen with my STEEM posts.
This sabre-rattling is unsettling. Sounds like war is coming to Steem, worse than ever before. That will be costly for all sides, I think.
I don't think so. Most people are smart enough to see things are changing and will adjust. That doesn't mean some crazy people won't have to jump on some grenades though.
Well, okay. But I consider you a credit to the blockchain, so don't blow yourself up just quite yet!
You see I got a smartsteem upvote, unpaid and manually curated, as part of their new committment to do more of that (and less bit botting) because of the pressure from free downvotes?
That's BIG!! First concrete evidence I've seen of positive changes from HF21. Real world example of free market forces reshaping a financial ecosystem. I'm intrigued, impressed, and inspired!
