STEEM-Bitshares-All Cryptocurrency: Unity Is NeededsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #busy6 years ago

It is heartbreaking to see some of what is going on. There is so much promise in our industry if we do not screw it up. Already, we are seeing the signs that we are sabotaging ourselves.

Now is the time to think bigger than oneself. Yes, we are in an arena that can offer us great riches. In fact, I feel that anyone who is earnest about cryptocurrency at this point, is going to do very well in that regard. However, there is something much bigger.

We all watched the 8 month onslaught on cryptocurrency pricing. Does anyone believe that was haphazard or just due to market forces? It was an orchestrated attack on something the establishment deems very dangerous to their power structure.

Now we see the censorship taking place by the mega-tech companies. Again, this is another concerted attack on those who speak out against what they are doing. Whether we like what some of these individuals are saying does not matter. What is important is their right to say it without having their platforms taken away. This is a very dangerous road the elites are leading us down.

There is a lot to be excited about. The unleashing of crypto-economics is going to change the world. This is why the establishment is so threatened. The only thing that can stop us is our own ignorance and stupidity. If we keep behaving the way we always did, the Age of Abundance will be further out of reach. Bear in mind it is not something that can be stopped but it can be delayed.

The cryptocurrency world is filled with greed, envy, anger, and childish behavior. We see a lot of backstabbing. This is something that is going to destroy us. We cannot let it happen.

Make no mistake about it, the forces we are up against, even though threatened, are united. While they are greedy, this is what unites them. They are not about to let their structure of corruption crumble. Since it is so well established, any weakness will be exploited.

What is at stake? Quite simply the immediate future of humanity. Some might say this is a bit dramatic but if one is paying attention, we are at a crossroads. We are blessed to been given crypto-economics at a time when the elites are out to destroy as many jobs as they can. They are also working on AI systems that, if they control, will be horrific for humanity. Decentralization is at the core of what we need to offset all this.

And here we are fighting over petty stuff that, on the grand scale, means very little. The in-fighting will only lead to them using it against us. One of their major weapons is divide and conquer. Ironic that, in this instance, they are not the ones doing it. We are doing it to ourselves.

Unity is called for. The masses are completely unaware of what is taking place. We know that they will be the last to know. It does not take the majority to make major shifts. In fact, a fair portion of the world lives in relative comfort meaning they are not likely to do anything until it is too late. The warning signs are there but they are too busy with the Bachelor or Dancing With the Stars to notice. The next recession could be a huge wake-up call for the west, something the east is already starting to realize even with things not going south economically.

We have a large part of the solution right before us. The question is can we be trusted with it. As long the cryptocurrency community is mired in greed, we are going to have problems. This is something that we need to overcome. It is because of this fear that the elites can control us. We do most of the sabotaging ourselves.

There are tokens popping up everywhere. We already have access to more money than at any other time in human history. There is a few hundred billion dollars in cryptocurrency out there with more being released each day. Even at these early stages, the shift should be apparent to everyone. Yet, we still behave according to the scarcity model. Instead of lifting each other up, there is a core part of this world that spends their time putting others down.

We see this on STEEM. The problems on Bitshares are well known. EOS is starting to follow the same path. Bitcoin is nothing but a cluster-fork of disagreements and squabbling. On and on it goes.

If we truly want change, we need to alter our ways. Discussion and disagreement over things is healthy, especially if it leads to positive suggestions for moving forward. However, the belittling and backstabbing out of greed, ego, and fear is very unhealthy. It will only serve to further the cause of the elites.

We have been giving a very powerful gun yet instead aiming outward, we are turning and firing upon ourselves.

How much sense does that make?

The technology has evolved, but we haven't yet. The poisons of the real world are seeping into the blockchain space and I'm not sure there is much we can do about that.

So...until there is a spiritual evolution of sorts at the individual level, things will chug along the current path, unfortunately.

EDIT: Gopi Krishna, an Indian pandit and philosopher, said this in one of his books:

"So what we have in mordern times is a disproportionate human being, a giant of the intellect, on the one hand, and a pygmy of moral or spiritual growth. This disproportion is at the base of the present threatening situation of the world."

I don't see a greater level of unity in the opposition to crypto. They are as back stabbing as those infighting within the crypto community. The main difference seems to be that those outside of the crypto community seem to still have the arrogance that they cannot be defeated despite regulators not being in agreement about how to proceed. It seems that some with political positions in government are already hodlers of crypto. They aren't all so eager to regulate it.

I still expect some more downside in all crypto's until at least early next year. Then I think we'll see sideways trading with eventual new ATH's in 2019. But 2019 will be nothing compared to what's coming in the following two years (price wise as well as social volatility). A great many changes are coming, but won't manifest until forced by the reality of the economics.

Unfortunately ego will still likely be with us for a very long time. Crypto can't cure that. But the voluntarist viewpoint that is demonstrated by the natural laws that crypto illustrates will begin to break into the public consciousness. Right now what is lacking is the understanding that statism is a mental virus that convinces many that it's OK for the state to use violence. It's a mass hallucination brought on by decades of indoctrination without any real confrontation. Everybody just accepts it as valid when it's completely wrong. Until people are made to understand their shame caused by their ignorance of philosophical principles, this dimension of ego will likely manifest negative consequences.

It just Free Market. At max unity will come with coins that unite with common goals like Bitcoin,Litecoin and Monero.

other than the down turn in price of bts and the general crypto market, what are the problems with bitshares?

Hi @taskmaster4450 - I, for one, am aware of what you are talking about.

My whole philosophy is about happiness for all in a society offering opportunity in peace . And the only way that is possible is by all of those empowered to have effect, to have the same understanding and moral/spiritual orientation, motivating all of us to work in harmony toward the same goal, even if we do it as free separate individuals. And the only way this, in turn, is possible, is by each of us knowing the irrefutable truths about the the origin and nature of humankind, the current condition of humankind and the way forward for humankind. Until that harmonizing shared insight is achieved, there will forever be conflict induced by people having different perceptions of reality and therefore different aims.

Keep on working at it friend...the truth is invincible, and will in the end set all of us free!

This is pretty vague. Could you elaborate? Was there something specific that happened that prompted this?
