1853 - CoinTelegraph vs Coindesk
Today I was contacted by the CoinTelegraph for cross promotional cooperation, you can visit the website here:
I gladly accepted because as of late I felt coindesk is becoming politically charged. Also I was not happy with the fact they used tactics to block people who attended Consensus 2017 from broadcasting their interaction. People paid hefty fees to attend and should have a right to share their experience with their respective communities.
Yes, you might say it was in the agreement, but what is the value of a conference if the information is not public. For a news website promoting open source projects, to force people to remove what they thought was promotional material for projects they appreciate is somewhat distasteful.
I will always promote projects I strongly believe in, Steemit is such a project, until there is an overwhelming feeling the forces of censorship by a few are much stronger than those of the majority, I will call Steemit home.
I have received generous funds from my position in the top witness list for awhile, and I will use those funds to promote Steemit on social media. I had prepared campaigns, which are waiting on a resolution of the signup issues. When those issues are ironed out I will launch the campaigns.
A conference that is not public is called BILDERBERG GROUP!
Or Buildthekryptonite group ;-)
That sounds more trust- and reliable to me!
I find a lot of the so called news in this space is just regurgitation of hype, with little knowledge of whats really going on.
Scenario:
Coin X is mooning, so all of sudden its all over the news for 24 hours, the reports are hasty, have little deep knowledge and often fail to include similar coins and ask deeper questions like why coin X is mooning but not coin Y.
I find better/equivalent content on steemit most of the time.
very good. you are absolutely right. weeding out the hype is a skill you develop over time in crypto. but you can not blame the writers all the time, they follow what is hot and what is not on the exchanges. all information is valuable if you apply your common sense.
Oh sure I do my own research, and its not so much blame as just a little uninspiring
Hello, please read my POST please.
The block chain is going to need every person of integrity to stand up for what is truthful and right and not just necessarily what is profitable.
The rush for pecuniary gain without ethical guidelines is what could actually bring Big Government into the crypto realm and regulate it to death.
Resteemed. Awesome.
Congratulations to you
Great post @joseph, hope that you accomplish everything you plan. I try to promote Steemit everywhere I go because it is an excellent platform! Steem ON!
this is a nice post.
@joseph, Steemit is an eagle and she is ready for flight. With all your promoting and with all the word of mouth, the future of social media will be on a blockchain. I'm learning more every day and the future is bright for so many. Steem On Friend.
I find if I want negative news about cryptocurrency, I visit coindesk.com

It feels like coindesk prefers to put a negative slant on what's happening whenever they can.
Good luck @joseph!
Steemit - it's realy sweet home))
