I wrote this post because all investment in cryptocurrency is entered against a fear of losing everything because you can't actually see your assets. They are intangible. They are locked into a blockchain somewhere, to which you have a private key. The risk of being hacked is very real, as is the risk of having your funds in an exchange which could go broke, or meet some other undesirable fate, or you could just get scammed. This post was written with this in mind. I am aware of the binary opposition. I was thinking about Steem as an altruistically motivated enterprise. But against what do we measure altruism, except its opposite - greed. So hackers wouldn't exist without victims. This article was about the awareness of dichotomy in nature. I am intrinsically drawn to the positive side of the equation. Being an empath, if I cause pain, I will feel that pain more keenly than the person I've upset, so I try to avoid conflict or occasions for causing pain to others. I tried to go back in time and rename the title of this, my first piece, in case it gave the wrong impression of me and my motivations, but found I could no longer edit it. The title is a bit of a misnomer. I just like to step into the shoes of others and see the world through their eyes in order to gauge their motivation. It helps me understand myself better. I tend to be naive and cause myself grief by underestimating others. Have a nice day, anyone who reads this ambered evocation - ambered because its been set in the latter day equivalent - a blockchain.
