RE: STEEM: The easiest Shill in town?
Indeed. I agree with the points you raise.
As a pure investor, it is possible for the most part to stay clear of the 'goings on' - they become more apparent, the more you look I guess.
Despite all this I am still pro STEEM, but as I mentioned in another reply, it's certainly worth keeping your eye in on the goings on elsewhere too.
Absolutely. I'm sure there are plenty of things going on out there, EOS being only one of them, that we all should be aware of. I'm counting on the fact that decentralization and freedom is a concept that more and more people will want to be a part of, and the vehicle to get there won't be as much of an issue as is the attitude or the behavior of those involved.
We are really in the middle of a tug of war between a pure investor mentality and a pure worker, consumer mentality, and it really needs to fuse together. Everyone needs to be looking out for what's best for the long term of the platform, rather than what potential profiteering you could make. Even in that situation, some people are going to do better, whatever the reason. It's just the way things work. But there does come a point where enough is enough when it comes to earnings. I've actually experienced that threshold, and it was surprisingly low, though higher than what most people achieve.
I think in there lies the issue. Getting to the point of enough, and then realizing you're there. Enough being what you're situation calls enough, not what some bureaucracy or other entity determines is good enough.
