about the bees, the goverments and bitcoin...

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

First let me introduce myself, i am 31 years old, i live in the beautiful country of Bulgaria i have a wife, home and over 100 000 000 friends. Yes thats right 100 000 000 friends, as Friend is someone that is valuable for you and you cherish this value everyday. My friends are my bees. I am a fourth generation Beekeeper, i love my bees and my bees love me. They love me because i feed them and take care of them, i love them as they provide comfort for me, but most of all they keep me litteraly alive. What most people dont get is that their lives depend on bees, not only the food you consume, but your very existence. We depend on the bees for polinating the plantlife in our world, including pretty much all of the fruits and vegitable you consume daily. According to scintist throughout the world for the past 20 years more than the half of the bee population had extinct already, NOT good at all!

Now if i got your attention about the importance of the bees and you would like to know more about them, please continue reading, if you are bored, you can skip to the part when we present the global problem which we are all facing if the bees extinct, if you need here some official data from the United Nations, check yout this link:

Boring part : The bees are one of the most complex animals in the world and are very very ancient. Altought only a few thousend yers ago people learn how to keep and harvest from them. According to some archeologist the oldest proves of beekeeping are in between 7000-10000 years ago in Bulgaria (today territories belonging to Turkey). In Ancient Egypt honey was used as food, balsaming pharaons and etc. Honey is even mantioned in the Byble and Quran. Here a photo of me extracting royal jelly, the mother of all superfoods a method used even back than..

I am only going to lose your time if i start writing about the many use and benefits of the honey, but if you are interested anyway, google it yourself :)

Now here is the problem. the pesticides used in agriculutured, or even against mosquitos are killing, not milions, but milions of bilions of bees each year, causing enourmous loss in each sector, for example only in the US each year this causes loss of approx. 200 bilions USD in the agricultural sector, as bees like i said help polinate and boost the crop. if you live in the USA, without bees your daily fruit/vegitable diet will consiste 100% only of corn or wheat, how about that! i bet you love corn! Here an interesting video for you.

Now the main problem, we started this article at first place. You probably know or have heard, that Goverments usualy work against their own people (you can ask Mr. Roger Ver on https://rogerver.com or https://twitter.com/rogerkver/ about it). This is a common issue, but Bulgarian goverment is probably the worst in this case. You know the EU has issued and act banning 3 of the main pesticides killing bees (Clothianidin, Imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam), however our goverment said they already bought the chemicals like Cithrol 10/4ULV so they will use them :X and they did, causing milions of bees to die! WHAT AN ABSURD ACT, went unpunished!

They've killed our bees, our harvest our income and our food, they want us to starve and die. Because of food regulations and laws our bee's honey (which is the most clean organic bio or whatever you want to call it product) is not welocome in the EU, because its better for you to consume sugarmade arificial honey, as suger will kill you, you know....

Bulgarian Goverment is granting 4 USD for a bee hive (per year) in subsidies : http://www.dnevnik.bg/biznes/2016/09/01/2820956_pchelarite_shte_poluchat_po_7_lv_pomosht_za_kosher
not much to say about that.. 4 $ / year...

Thanks to platforms like https://openbazaar.org we are able to sell some of our products worldwide, also thanks to https://duosear.ch for making openbazaar available for more and more people each day. The people behind it are the future of trade and this technology they represent is becoming more and more popular and accessible to people like us which are not so much into tech, however we have the will to embrace this technology as it gives us the freedom we all need! hey i even got the mobile app Bazaarhound from http://www.bazaarhound.com ,we are evolving...

here you can find our shop: https://duosear.ch/@FreeTradeBulgaria or ob://@FreeTradeBulgaria/about (if you have openbazaar installed)

Now our family together with other beekeepers have formed an unofficial organization, in which we try to alert people, try to prevent such hideous goverment acts against the bees, the people and live on earth in general. And also we try to populize bee keeping, you can check what i have in mind here http://ihaveabee.com Everyone can become a beekeeper, we discuss ideas with beekepers across the world, you can check our facebook page, here https://www.facebook.com/groups/279057128878973/ we are over 13 000 strong already.

You know before openbazaar i have only heard about bitcoin, but than again thanks to it and Mr. Washington Sanchez and Mr. Brian Hoffman, we started actualy possesing some as well as dealing with it on daily basis. bitcoin gives you the freedom which our goverment has taken from us. Too bad is not that popular in our country we would use it anywere anytime. We try to implement it anywhere, even convinced one pizza place in our town to start accepting it and another one which will start next Spring!

Thanks to mt friend bithawal from Dubai, who is a honeybadger aswell, we heard about Steemit and here we are with our first artikel here, we hope it gets popular and more and more people become aware of this catastrophic issue we are dealing here. Like i said Bees = Life, think about it!

Thanks to our friends from Sofia, here you can see where the first Bitcoin ATM in Bulgaria had been installed http://www.bitcoin.bg i hope bitcoin will become more and more popular.

Our contry is beautiful its full of life and we accept milions of tourist yearly, we have beautiful culutre and lots of party places. We hope in future people here will be able to book their flights with bitcoin, as well as pay for accomodation and activities and of course spend something on our sweet honey deals.

End of the season we will be able to give away for free a lot of bee products to our friends, you will only have to cover the shipping expences if you are outside Bulgaira, as what we cant eat and cant sell is can not go to waste..

Populize bitcoin, spread the word, help save the bees, save the world!

Neat write up about a subject I do not know about, love that you are using OpenBazaar and hope it helps spread the love of something you love.

yes, openbazaar is the reason we got involved with worldwide sales and bitcoin in general, #drwasho is the person who helped me a lot, i am not a computer guy that much, its something new for me, but interesting

I also have received much help from the OpenBazaar developers, drwasho is awesome, all the guys that stay in their Slack channel, really a group of people that you can tell believe in this and don't mind helping others jumping in to share their goods with the whole world.

Awesome article! My husband gave me a beehive last year but I've not had chance to get it set up to put bees in it yet (and it's too late this year... maybe next year).
I'll follow you and hopefully learn more about your 100,000,000 friends <3

anything you need to know about beekeeping, just ask me, or visit our fb page (mantioned in the artikel) we are here to help

Ugh, the poor bees!! Thank you for sharing this!

yes, please share it further, let all people know, that this is a major problem, lets help rise awareness

Have you heard about chemtrails? I've seen a documentary about how chemicals that they spray kill the bees, make sense when you know the government's plan is to control food and water.

yes, i've herd about it, but no need to know anything else, i've witnesed how our goverment sprayed all the crops with something banned in the EU, i'm sorry the report about it was taken down from i-net, so you can see aswell
