Tone, it's not too late. Come join us! {another open letter to Tone Vays}

Tone,
It's been almost a year since I wrote you last. It was after your debate with @dollarvigilante , Jeff Berwick. I'm still not the right person to be writing you because I still don't know much about cryptocurrency!

I still think you were right, when you conceeded that Steemit is fascinating! A year later and it's still a great place, that's offered me so much (friends, a platform for my work, and a hefty reward!) You should come play with us. It's risk free, and I'll even loan you some Steem Power to get you started!

I know it can be overwhelming and you've said some things about Steem and Steemit that you might want to take back, but we'll still welcome you with open arms.

I don’t mind, though, none of that matters. I’m biased too! I’m biased because I’ve spent the past month on Steemit making great friends, talking with amazing, smart people (some of whom I didn’t agree with!). I’ve had my creativity challenged, and my mind expanded as I work to keep up with all the intelligent debate. I’m learning how to mine and how to solve crypto-puzzles. Thanks to the discussions on Steemit, I bought my first fraction of a Bitcoin! I’ve even made a few bucks, sharing what I love with the world!

When I hear you talk about Steemit, I don’t think you consider these kinds of interactions and their intrinsic value! You are right it’s not perfect. If you catch me in the wrong mood in the chat room, I’ll be the first to bemoan the many problems. But Steemit is new! I’ve noticed the changes from week to week. The next 6 months will be an incredible ride. Come along!

I encourage you to come join us. You haven’t burned your bridges, I promise! Steemit isn’t a closed system, and there is plenty of room for different points of view. Your perspective would be refreshing and valuable for every system needs its critics to make it better!

I challenge you to give us a month of your time. It requires no down payment. You won’t have to power up, I promise. Write a few posts and engage with the users of Steemit. After that month is up, I’d encourage you to have another chat with Jeff and let us know if you feel differently.

What are you waiting for?

Love,
Renée

many blessings and all credit to @dollarvigilante for the original video, that I gently massaged to make a point
