Kids today can't imagine a world where people used horses as daily transportation.
Kids tomorrow won't be able to imagine a world where money was backed by governments, instead of software.
My rules of business:
Build shit people want, never give up, avoid assholes, question assumptions, learn new ideas & always reward ambition
Steem to the Moon 🚀 🌑
I was pretty pessimistic about the world before I discovered steemit. The notion that humans could self organize and create something so powerful just blew me away. Started to look at everything around me differently. Then I turned into an optimist.
Steem is better. Expect it.
Imagine growing up with the Internet, see everything that has been enabled by it over the last 30 years, and dismissing Steem because it’s too ambitious or “the governments won’t let it happen”.
We live in 2019, people. A scarce digital money gaining traction isn’t that far fetched. Welcome to the future we dreamed about growing up.
Still thinking about this. It's crazy that people think a digital money isn't going to happen. We're sending unmanned rockets to space and landing them on little squares in the ocean. lol, Steem is an inevitable progression of technology and our interaction with it.
Scarce digital money though? Nah, not gonna happen.
We need to be prouder as a species and give ourselves more credit. Set higher expectations.
We've been pretty good at making our reality better so far.
Blockhain tech is truly revolutionary.

I think our generation (millennials) have some of the best potential to harness this opportunity and educate. We’re the bridge between the tech illiterate boomers and the born plugged in Gen Z.
Let’s prove all those “millennials are stupid, entitled and lazy” haters wrong.
Speak for yourself, and think twice before smearing an entire generation.
Personally, this "tech illiterate boomer" has been working on computers since before you were born, and a whole host of other "tech illiterate boomers" created not only the Internet, cell phones and wifi, but also the software. computers and smartphones you're doubtlessly using to post.
Show some respect for those who have gone before you.
Please understand, I have nothing against millennials, and count a number among my friends.
I do, on the other hand, have an issue with people who are needlessly and/or intentionally rude, and this was without question a rude post.
Yes, there are tech illiterate boomers. And, frankly, there are also tech illiterate millennials, though I'll grant not as many.
But judging a generation based on a single demographic is just ignorant. Word to the wise.
True. I'm about to turn 56, so I am technically a boomer :-)
But I also seem to think different from others my age as well, so I get part of what he's saying also. People my age 'in general' don't seem to have any idea about some of the stuff I talk about :-)
