If you someone active in the steemit community then you must know the drama going between haejin and berniesander. The steemit community is divided into haejin's group and berniesander's group. There is equal chances for both of them to win.
Berniesanders
Nowadays haejin is getting 6% of the total reward pool of steemit. Many of them think it is Ok but there are some group of people who think he doesnot deserve this and berniesander is the one. He made a post about haejin and the post got on trending for days. His complain was that haejin was posting a lot of content per day and 6% of the profit of steemit was taken by a single person leaving 499999 people with 94% of the money and he don't want this to happen.
Why Berniesander can win?
He has the supporting of the whales. Most of his supporters are those people who used to take more than a bitcoin for the same suggestion that haejin is providing for free. More the voting power of the community more is the chances to win.
He claims himself to be the good whale that upvotes minnows. So he has a lot of supporters.
His whales followers can deposite more money in steempower to downvote haejin.
Haejin
Haejin is someone who is providing trading strategy in his daily blog. He is almost accurate and is one of the fastest growing steemian. He has a reputation of 70 and is growing enormous.
Why can Haejin win?
- The only and the big reason is that his army. He has around 7500 followers and most of them are loyal which is nohere comparable to berniesander's loyal followers.
My personal opinion is that haejin is good and he deserves all the profit he is getting. There is no need for this drama which gives negative impression to the newcommers. Haejin had helped so many to profit and made some loyal followers. Many of the people not clear about this drama are supporting haejin just because he helped them.
If you are a follower of haejin then no worries truth always wins
Berniesanders lied about the 6% number. It's closer to 0.6%. Meanwhile berniesanders is raping the reward pool with his hundreds of bot accounts.
Even if it is 6% then also it is acceptable for what he has done!
I think this is a case of human psychology failing us - Confirmation Bias
I think it's very unlikely that Haejin is right as much as people think he is. It's just that he posts so much that nobody notices the ones he gets wrong.
People have a tendency to boast and cheer about the times things went well, and just shrug and dismiss the bad ones as 'one-off', and are too embarrassed to publicize their failure anyway.
So the law of averages plays out and people suddenly think he always gets it right, meanwhile, all his mistakes (which I wouldn't be surprised if they were 50%) are way down his feed after posting 20 times a day.
If anybody has actually tally'd up and noted the rights and wrongs, I'd love to see the meta-analysis of Haejin's performance, but I'm very skeptical to date, knowing how unpredictable the market can be.
I am not going to take the time to go back and look to see, but I will tell you my experience.
I have invested in a few of Haejin's suggested coins, a few from another and I have studied Elliott wave theory and made a few calls on my own. All have hit my price projections and I have managed to triple my meager investments since Dec. 9th. Even at the bottom of the recent down turn I never went below double my investment and I am very much a novice.
The tools he uses are not perfect, but they do make an "unpredictable" market understandable. No you can not see precise tops, bottoms or time frames, but you can see the broad strokes and use that to make profit.
I managed to do the same just guessing human psychology, and I've got no experience. In fact more than triple come to think of it. If it's worked, it's worked but I wouldn't put ultimate loyal faith in without a success analysis personally, and thus can't justify such monetary success on steemit
I do not put "ultimate loyal faith" in him. I have researched Elliott wave and trust it as one tool among several. I am not good with human psychology and my guesses generally lose me money.
As far as monetary success on steemit goes, is that not up to the individuals who choose to up vote or not?
Whales trying to shut down someone many are getting value from, thus up voting and supporting, is what I can not see justification for.
People have the right to downvote as much as those who have the right to upvote. in fact, the very first thing you see when flagging is the rules for flagging, the very first thing being 'disagreement on rewards'. It should not be taboo to flag for legit reasons
Great to know about it. Since im new in steemit. Just following the ocean news. Cheers.
Bwahaha!😂
Downvoting and jealous communist @berniesanders is getting massive butthurt!
The retarded imbecile flagged me many times but he can't flag @haejins tips!
If only the moron had bought Verge Currency when it was below 1c!😂
Haha comparison, cant say anything ...
