RE: Maybe Steemit Inc Should Time Lock Their Steem
I have all the incentives to.
I'll have to take your word for it I guess, not much else to back that up with.

What do you mean? I can't short Steem. I own some Steem so I have all the incentives to see it go up. I don't know how it could be otherwise. It's not like I could make the price go down either.
You're not that stupid that you can't see how filling trending with your negative and controversial posts wouldn't effect the price.
Requesting features that are much needed are a negative thing?
It seems like I've failed miserably if I tried to influence the price.

Requesting features that have been discussed to death without bringing any new solutions to the table.
People trade currencies for a lot more reasons than to invest in the platform, short term price proves nothing.
My intentions are good. If Steem goes up then I'm making money. If it goes down then I'm loosing. I'm sorry if that appeared otherwise. I mean this.
True but you've implied that I might have been trying to influence the price.
What you mean can be translated in many ways.
If Steem goes up the ones that have powered a lot down are not going to make as much money as the ones that have not. How are you losing* money if you've already sold the majority of your stake compared to people still invested in the platform?
You may be holding it on exchanges so I don't want to come to conclusions but most of us know that the security of the Steem wallets is a lot better than trusting exchanges with your coins.
Yes, newcomers coming into the cryptocurrency space and not taking enough time to research currencies may look at trending, see your face all over it filled with uncertainty and doubt and not consider investing.
I still own Steem. To me, that's a lot of money. I'm sorry that you seem to have possibly misconstrued my intentions. I can totally see why. I've lacked dexterity in the way I went at some of what I was trying. I'm learning. I wish I'll be able to make you change your perspective in the future.
Anyone can (be) short steem. It doesn't have to be a formal structure on an exchange. I'm not suggesting anything like that is going on here though.
Yeah you're right. I'm not denying this. I know you're not mentioning this to corner me but I mean, to me the number of Steem that I own is a lot of money...
