RE: Hello MOGUL Game, Where's the Game, Gold, and Prizes?; Seems Steem(it) didn't like the idea!
You guys sound a lot like the naysayers calling Bitcoin a scam back when there was not yet any infrastructure or on ramps. If you were not a miner, it was much easier and far less intellectually challenging to just call it a scam then to try and figure out the "coloring outside of the lines" ways of buying it while it was still selling in the single digits. Thank God I didn't listen to your knee jerk reactions and started buying bitcoin for $5 in 2011.
I love the idea of such a game but lots of details seemed to be missing the way this was presented.
Everyone can wait until there are enough details and assurances to make them comfortable to participate. There are many people that I told about bitcoin way back in 2011 who are still not comfortable enough with participating in crypto to take the leap.
And just exactly what details were available about Bitcoin in 2011 when I started buying? I'll answer for you. None. I invested in the idea and the possibility. The possibility caused excitement. The excitement caused people to build out the infrastructure. And now here we are. At a crossroads/
And a very interesting crossroads that many of us are interested in and looking for what is next!
But surely the idea back then was how you can create a currency with cryptography. It can't be copied. That was a radical idea. This Matt dude hasn't even told us an idea.
He's a marketer. His ideas are about how to bring our ideas to the whole world.
Did they promise you 10-15 or 20 million dollars in prizes?
Did you get lost on the way to the Bitcoin store?
Yes, do you live on page one in a fairy tale? lol ;)
On page one of just about every fairy tale! :-)
See my most recent post on the subject, but to sum up, Matt is a felon and did a stretch in Leavenworth. He was forced to pay restitution to the people he defrauded.
Simple solution. Put the 10 million into SBD held by a trusted third party agreed upon by the community.
Then again why would anyone want to do something intelligent like use a trusted third party, multi-sig account, or smart contract in a new type of currency that is built upon transparency and the ability to prove you aren't a scammer.
This.
