in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

I gave $7 to an older homeless disabled man outside the Shell Station in my neighborhood and I showed him steemit. he asked for some change and I told him that I would give him some money if he let me take a photo with him holding the money and he agreed. He thought it was great and seemed to love this idea of him being able to make money and contribute to steemit by acting as a sort of art piece of symbol of advertising to promote the steem blockchain! I want to do something similar to the Golden Homeless idea by Kristian von Hornsleth but locally here in San Diego, CA.

i am doing this to show people you can make money off giving out money, JUST like how steempower let's you earn curation from giving out upvote money without taking away any money from your own wallet! I have done this multiple times, and the cash that I gave out I can simply say was part of the profit of previous postrs where I for example gave a teenager $20 when he asked for some help as he was far from home, and I made over $60 off the post! So now that @tytran has sent me this great steem hat and steem hoodie with my custom username printed on it, I can REALLY make some great social media posts like this on not just steem but reddit facebook instagram snapchat and of course youtube and REALLy promote steem blockchain as a place to get paid WHILE helping others to REALLY have a mass appeal! Now , let me explain the connection to what I called "The Golden Homeless" ... So while I was in the steemspeak.com chat (by @fyrstikken ) a user named @mughat showed me this successful artist in Denmark named Kristian von Hornsleth who has made hundreds of thousands of US dollars (worth of Danish Kroners) on his Golden Homeless Art Project where he attaches GPS ankle bracelets on homeless people and pays them to become human tamogachis, where rich people can track their location and watch them like a reality TV show. https://hornslethhomelesstracker.com/ And here is the Video explaining the project much better than i can!

I love this idea and LOVE seeing homeless people being given a chance to EARN money by contributing to society in a BIG way like this and creating THIS much of an entertainment and educational factor. Attention was brought onto this art producer, and he raised a LOT of money and awareness for the homeless, while giving them a VERY nice capitalistic way of helping themselves! When I gave this man above the $7 US I told him, "This is not charity, it's Business" which is what was said by the Danish artist who @mughat had showed me. With future projects including wearable body cams and extra money for the homeless person if they can keep the device charged up with full battery during the daytime so a live video feed can even be transmitted, and these wandering wifi connected homeless could be used to do investigative reporting, to go and spy on anyone or anything maybe to stop crime, they can be pad to go walking in a certain direction in case someone needs some video or audio footage of somewhere, like i imagine a whole Uber type app that just has hundreds of homeless people all wearing GPS trackers and GPS ankle bracelets and if they see something interesting then it is always recording so they'll get that video upvoted and theyd earn money on steem for just walking around in urban areas that they already walk around in!

If they run into any situation or spectacle on the street that can be entertaining and thus make money. We can even have the homeless include advertising n the videos by simply opening up magazines or pointing at existing bilbaords, and I mean the possibilities are endless! Imagine like when you open the uber app and you see all the Uber cars in yoru area circling around waiting for passengers, imagine if you could just see hoemless people walking around and if you paid them certain amount of money (steem/SBD) you could request that they go somewhere and you coudl even see if they have a bus passs, you could put money on their bus pass if you needed to request thy go somewhere, its all voluntary. And you could request to pay them to go walk a certain diction or you could request them an uber if you needed to get them somewhere fast, lets say you find out from another Golden Homeless that there is a fight breaking out maybe at a nightclub outside with a bouncer and a guest, maybe you need a second camera angle and you go and request for a second golden homeless nearby to get into an uber and get them to the scene of the spectacle, and now you would have TWO angles! I believe that is just ONE small example of the possibilities! Imagine if you could also just

And here is a new article about Anarcho Capitalists and their opinions on Bitcoin and crypto.
https://news.bitcoin.com/love-it-or-hate-it-anarcho-capitalist-luminaries-weigh-in-on-bitcoin/
And WOW look what ELSE is happening... WOAH forget that article above, look at these stories on news.bitcoin.com !

JUST like I said would happen, a DPOS Bitcoin Fork is coming out! BITCOIN LIGHTENING HAHHA
https://news.bitcoin.com/the-first-dpos-hard-fork-lightning-bitcoin-is-on-the-way/

The new project Lightning Bitcoin (LBTC) will fork at block 499,999 on or around December 23, 2017. Why lightning? The team aims to make Bitcoin transfers as fast as lightning, or at a maximum of 24 million transactions a day. How can that happen? The answer is the DPOS mechanism, according to the project’s proponents.
WOW so Bitcoin holders will now be Bitcoin lightening stake holders so that they can choose who the Bitcoin Witnesses will be, JUST like I predicted would happen, I called for this months ago and I am SO HAPPY it is happening!

So now we can all relax and realize tha Bitcoin is just going through a phase, next year when enough people have ben brought onbaord and we all want to start actually using it, THEN they will lower fees, make the transactions very fast again and upgrade the system with second layer solutions or some other method AND peopel will simply use STEEM for everyday purchases and EOS too! DPOS Bitcoin might also help create a huge boost for OTHER DPOS system like STEEM and EOS! Speaking of using STEEM as the mass adoption cryptocurrency for the WHOLE world, I believe we should be watching @utopian-io and it's users from the developing world very closely and supporting team Ghana like my friend @tytran is doing, with his support of many of the Team Ghana ideas for improving steem access in West Africa. @tj4real @richforever @mcsamm @anaman @kwakumax in Ghana and @xpency @greenrun and many more in Nigeria , (and MANY more in all of West and Southern Africa) have ALL worked VERY hard, in particular @tj4real and @richforever and @mcsamm and @xpency are leaders and making leaders of those around them, understanding that if everyone wins, they also win, and when we use crypto to support West Africa, and get allll of these nations using steem, WE WIN too! It is NOT charity! it is BUSINESS! You think I want to just give away money? I hope not! Because my ideas of helping JUMP START the use of STEEM in AFRICA is NOT just some blind altruism, NO on the CONTRARY! Helping Africa get on Steem is PURE self interest for myself! I of course am wanting them to become wealthy and use Steem so they can have the BEST system in place and I want them to be successful from the bottom of my heart but it is ALSO because then I WILL MAKE MONEY TOO! It is a win win situation! (Here is a ROUGH DRAFT of just some photos of team Ghana that I compiled in MS Paint, later we make better ones)

When 30 Million people in Ghana or 100 Million in Nigeria ALL start using Steem, well imagine what the price of Steem could reach, it is insane and beautiful just to think about! If the WEST does not want to use steem with mass adoption, Hah well Nigeria, Ghana, and Indonesia and many other developing nations WILL decide to just use steem and with ALL of the money they save in transaction fees by avoiding bitcoin, we will be able to buy a car or a house in a year! Bitcoin will be used by the WEALTHY and Steem for the newly rich and everyone else! But anyone on Steem NOW with Steempower will become wealthy enough to be in that wealthy Bitcoin Club , the club of people who can afford to spend high transaction fees and who don't mind! Australians can even pay their Bills and send money to bank account using Steem and it works great thanks to the $0 transaction fees with steem!

hahahaha we should make fun of Bitcoin users for their high fees to PUSH them to find better solutions to lower them sooner and explain that they are giving away all their money to miners, when we can all save our fees and buy MORE crypto MORE things, hire MORE developers buy MORE advertising to promote Steem! With all the money Bitcoin users spend on high fees, they could be buying their own advertising agency to promote Bitcoin to more people and make Bitcoin price go up! But these useless miners are getting wealthy and are they actually smart enough to USE some of that almost pure profit to pay for better marketing and technology and advertising or Bitcoin in 2018 to REALLY push BTC to $1 Million dollars each and then LOWER fees and increase transaction times? I say, yes they can! And THAT is why BTC could actually reach $100,000 or Gee Golly even $500,000 next year hell why not $#1 million US dollars per Bitcoin? WHY NOT? Hah Bitcoin DOES NOT CARE how expensive YOU think it is! :D XD As long as they kep printing Dollars and Euros and fiat paper money then people will keep buying Bitcoin and Bitcoin will keep going up! LOL! XD

( Some say I should Sell EOS at $3, I believe maybe selling some at the $5 level it was near during start of ICO, maybe, but everyone who is smart wants EOS and even Vitalik is giving EOS free advertising, and I believe EOS is a bargain, it is actually going to reach $40-$50 if EOS reaches Ethereum's marketcap... so I believe EOS has a long way up to go! But that is just my opinion ;)

Ok So I will say what I have been saying for almost a year now, Bitcoin DOES NOT CARE how expensive YOU think it is! Supply goes DOWN and DEMAND goes UP... and about that whole high fee low transaction speed problem.... you should know that the Segwit Address I use on my ledger nano IS FAST and when I transfer money from a ledger nano Bitcoin Segwit Address to another segwit address, its FAST and CHEAP like near instant and only costs pennies! But not many even know this yet, and many existing bitcoin wallets have not updated to a segwit address yet due to opportunity costs and or other time based challenges, and many other reasons which will fix them selves over time. So the "lightening network" is on the way or maybe Bitcoin's second layer solutions are ALREADY finished but they are simply waiting for LARGE investors to on board, which means that small fries are being priced out, only the rich can afford to buy in right now and then when they have all bought in, they'll lower fees and make transactions MUCH quicker and then let everyone start using Bitcoin again for small transactions with insanely fast speeds, but they will still pay some fee and so Steem at $0 transaction fees will remain the only real crypto currency available for micro transactions but its also PERFECT for them and steem is PERFECT for the everyday stuff too! Bitcoin is like the Gold and Steem like the silver, and oh we always have Bitcoin Cash if you just want to start having low fees and fast transaction times without waiting :D So just watch Bitcoin go to $40,000 by the end of the year, in 1 month, because we went from $5k to $10k in the last month, why not get to $20K by Christmas and then why not end the year at $40K?

:D EOS also is going to $4 then $5 and it was all thanks to Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin "joking" that EOS is the Ethereum 2.0 but all the smartest people on EARTH are investing in EOS and planning new smart contracts for this new 3 dimensional blockchain! :D

Also Please support @cryptopie since he got around 1000 SBD that he does not have anymore thanks to the bellyrub crisis, and @Cryptopie needed that money for medicine, medicine and very specific special medical treatment which actually lets him live a less painful life (and look up Lion Face bone disorder where his bones won't stop growing and his Dialysis is also not he;ping and let's PLEASE help him get this 1000 back ASAP so he doesn't have to just suffer even ore due to the negative events of whatever happened or is happening with Bellyrub "Bank" (And I won't go into that until I know more details I just want to help @cryptopie get HIS money back first since I feel like he deserves a kind of Do Over as the whole community was giving him the green light to invest and I don't ant him being punished for what some I know would claim was "making a bad decision" when honestly everyone else here was doing it and he can't always see through the peer pressure since his life is so busy and full of so many daily challenges I feel like we should find a way to let him off the hook for this one! ) . Please check out his posts and see how unfortunate his condition is, he is a hero for steemit community just for wanting to keep living, everyday seems like a struggle or can be for him, but he pushed through and has a purpose of saving money to pay back his family and then to provide a lot more for them which is so noble of him, and I feel like steem is really helping im do this and because of steem I feel like he is finally able to get the attention and medical care he requires, and since he was directly effected by the bellyrub zeartful controversy and since now there is a chance that he may not get his over 1000 SBD back from bellyrub bank, then it would be nice if he could get some extra Upvotes! https://steemit.com/untalented/@cryptopie/dear-diary-i-have-mixed-emotions-today-but-thankful-anyhow

Thanks again to @elgeko for his custom psychedelic signature artwork for my image below! And to @tytran for all his support with Team Ghana and other important missions to get steem to #1 social media and payment system in all of Ghana and all of west Africa!

WOW so @vitalikbuterin really IS an Alien! look at this shirt is he wwearing with billy meirrs Pleadian Beamship FLying Saucer UFO ships on them! LOL

certified alien.

Thank you @ackza for your support for me, you really are a good person.

You have an extravagant ideas and it always amazes me like your thoughts about helping some homeless people a sort of helping them out through a TV show where they are like stars of a reality TV. It is something doable with some willingness by some TV producer to do it.
I am excited about the BTC price too as well as steem. I am glad have discovered cryptos.

@ackza Hey man you touch on a whole lot of subjects on your post nice work. again I am buying EOS like you and agree it is a bargain under 5 bucks lol what a joke. and that is hella cool of you giving that homeless man 7 dollars. I was homeless for 3 years and it made my day when someone just handed me a few dollars. anything is cool when you are hard up. nice to pass the word around to him about Steem. If I was ever homeless again I would definitely be staying dry going to coffee shops and using steem to earn crypto to get by. Steem would have made shit so much easier. I could send funds without a bank account to a debit card and buy coffee and donuts and other occasional expenses. Oh yeah and I was gonna say you should check out my music i just pre released on my page I am going to make a half rap/ half rock album and upload it probably on lbry.io!!! Im going to use my music to promote the blockchain!

interesting about that lightning fork also lmfao. I just have been collecting the forked coins in coinomi.. waiting for them to pump and selling them all at the top shapeshifting them to bitcoin. It's freaking insane. haha. This time next year I am going to have to do some personal accounting.

wow yeah i should use coinomi for that too! i have some yriad coin and pivx and few others liek shadwocoin in my coinpmi back from when poloniex delisted a bunch and some curecoin in eobot lol theyrre all worth so much more now like luiteraly $1 became $60 in thelast 10 months in that coinomi wallet lol so cool to see such groqth like that so even the peoepl sho start with jyst a few pennies endup with like a nice$20 or even $100 bill to theninvest and you COULD actually invest your way to 1 BTC nowadays if you are good at it!

yeah man i love just sittingonsoen altcoisn and letting em grow... yeah i will check out ur music man,i am gonna go use soem fiat on some credit cards to go buy some food rightnow and then begrateful that i never had to use my bitcoin!

Ok man godo hearin from ya! heres some upvote!

I amgonan start posting on steemit like 5 times a day at least i thinka nd start building up my steem at 100% powerup mroe and more!

OH AND DUDE That DPOS Bitcoin Lightening u read the aticle>??? They wanna make it SUPER fast BTC by makingit DPOS and so BTC will have fuckin witnesses and the stakeodlers r peopel with bitcoin will be voting on who gets to bea witness so it will be interesting seeing the politics and wishes of the bitcoin holdrs, if they remain tehsame people, we all know most peoepl sold all their bitcoin cash and gold and now peopel are mroe an dmroe HLDING their forks and learning their lessons etc

man i love the idea of bitcoin lightening using ALL the old marketing from Lightening Network and i cant wait to see Bitcoin go to $100,000 by new years XD hahaha

oh yes poloniex. I am the idiot that lost that money because I didnt get the memo they were pulling out of my state. Wish i knew of coinomi then. jesus christ it would have saved me some money. Hell yeah dont spend that crypto especially btc, ltc, and eth. its like paying for stuff with gold basically. Which would be somewhat handy to do but why? Fiat goes in the garbage anyways why not give it to stores if they accept it! lol its crazy.

dont you need a bank acount to do that? (to get the debit card), or some form of identification? I'm still working on that.

You never need a bank account and no ID either nope just use localbitcoin.com and use cash! al u need to buy Bitcoin is Cash!

@ackza Nicely done and lots of info in this posting. I need to go get some sleep now so much excitement today from 10K Bitcoin.

:D LOOK UP Google trends for Steemit man!

that's a great post....thanks for the sharing.....

nice idea to help poor & needy person. and promoting this cool website. @ackza really an inspiring idea. Upvoted & Restemm

My man @ackza, I can see you are still on the mission to spread the steemit message to all parts of the world. I'm happy your EOS is doing great. I always like your enthusiasm, I doubt there's anyone you'd talk to with such an awesome positive vibes that won't sign up on steemit! Keep up the good job. Steem to three digits! 🚀

if helping a disabled person is a good job.

did you know that theres much blessings in giving than receiving?thats just a reminder buddy...and you will surely get back in many fold...your love and support for humanity is really gigantic...keep it up cos some of us look up to the good in you @ackza and @tytran ....I have always beleived in collective responsibility...'together we stand,divided we fall'
