RE: Philosophical Thoughts on Cryptocurrencies
Awesome video Meno and great guitar collection on the wall ahah.
Me personally, goals are healthy but only goals that are possible - you made a good point about trying to get rich, failing and getting crippling depression. It happens to a lot of people, that's why I believe having multiple small goals is better than one radical goal.
Also, what does being rich and poor in cryptocurrency look like? Honestly being rich in crypto is having a huge follower base, these people follow you in hopes you share your knowledge. This may not be the case when more applications bring in a mass of normies but at the moment I really believe that only the rich on the Steemit platforms get the followers.
I increasingly think that feeling rich or wealthy (because its perception really) is probably more connected to purpose than almost anything else. So if you are a communicator, someone who enjoys interaction, communities, etc, etc. Then yes, having followers, building that community around you is your wealth.
That makes perfect sense... Chasing the mighty dollar for the sake of chasing it, has never given anyone lasting joy. Or at least, I've never heard of such thing.
And those who do chase it end up failing miserably. If you have a passion for something, the money will find you.
That's been my experience in life as well, but I learned the hard way! hahahah
I agree with you both here on Venezuela most of the users at first just blog hoping to get a nice revenue and be able to cover their day by day expenses, I personally, had been dealing with issues like that. But ever since I began blogging and reading other people's blogs, I've noticed that the best way to became successful and in a way feel rich like you said with crypto currency is when you can maintain a perfect balance between your followers, content and your own investment. For instance, I'm a singer and usually I'm watching other singers on the platform. So I try to keep in touch with them from time to time, at the same time I try to get nice earnings and I use those earnings arrange meeting s with artists and invest on equipment to improve my gear.
