It is also highly possible that what you own and value, you could over-value and believe it holds more worth than it actually does, because it is yours.
I'd say highly probable maybe given how in our recent house hunting endeavours I was amused to find people actually fully expecting to receive boom prices for their house but expecting to pay recent bust prices for the one they wanted to buy XD
And following on from that I like owning a house because it's slightly harder to be kicked out of plus I can do whatever. Car well I'd love to be down one as it would save us heaps in rego and fuel but we haven't managed that yet.
None would be better but I transport dogs
At some point, people are going to be looking for their place to own
This was one reason why I made my own blog a hundred million years ago, but at the time it wasn't such a developed idea, it was more "I can't do what I want on livejournal, I better roll my own". The actual "ownership" idea came about later when I realised that if I had to quit/was kicked off any of the websites I used then all the things posted there were gone, and the same thing could happen if these blockchain projects I'm playing with decided to go poof.
In the case of steem I don't always feel like I actually own the steem in my wallet never mind the steem-engine tokens but that's my fault because I keep powering it up when I hit my magic number and it's too hard/I'm too lazy to get a hardware wallet for the liquid, assuming it will even go on a hardware wallet as I don't actually know how those work and anyway merrily throwing it around here is much moar easierer and betterer.
With my blog, either I have to stop or the provider I'm using has to completely die without selling out to another company or decide they don't like me anymore and fire me.
How would you feel if all of your feeds on twitter, the videos you uploaded to YouTube, your blog on WordPress, your Instagram and every other digital content you have created was suddenly taken over by someone else who posted as you, chose the words that you would say to all of your audiences and be your voice?
Would you feel hacked, violated and like your home had been broken into?
Isn't this a thing that already happens? :)
Me too, but people would say... "but not me!" :D
Children on a muddy day :D
There are options for it, but at the same time if Steem goes down, it is worthless anyway and it is still secure here. More fun to play with it, as they say.
Yes! :D
I'd love to say I'm past that point but there is my adhd child XD Otherwise happily gymnastics is an indoor sports XD
I'm not that worried about the security, I feel the same way about the money in the bank.
