Hey Southern,
Thanks for the honest words. I read your article from beginning to end (unlike MANY steemit users who seem to upvote based on the cover photo..doh) and really respect the tone and message of your words.
I thought you deserved a comment to go along with an upvote, because as a passionate writer myself (mostly about food, travel and fantasy short stories) I revel in the comments people leave under a piece of writing I put HOURS into writing then possibly hours again during the editing process.
Personally, I'm pretty deep into DigiByte myself. They're aren't super fancy, but the tech seems very solid, they've been around since 2014 and had quite a number of firsts to their name. I believe in Jared Tate's ethic and plan and think it's got a very solid future - particularly based on it's incredibly fast block timing and scalability for the future. At current prices, it's a steal.
Take care, my friend.
Regards,
Nick
