RE: Do we understand Steem's fungibility?

in #steem6 years ago

Well right now it says conflicting messages:

  • Come here, invest on our token
  • But don't you dare f up, because if you do we will hate you
  • Oh, we don't want your greedy fake ass here
  • Oh, upvote minnows be nice my friend

Steem is currently investment toxic, we need that to change. I know this, I've been told this by people with deep pockets.

Sort:  

Important thing is which investors have you talked to. Steemit is a social media site, it has its values and core ideals set first by the whitepaper. If you have investors going against those values then of course they will get hate.
Yes people despise greed and fakeness.
I mean you say upvote minnows and be a nice friend but thats what the steem blockchain was supposed to be about... For those that have money to make money by using their stake to give money to those that dont have it based on quality, social value, friendship, etc...

People will allways revolt against greed and i cant blame them.
People weight thr benefit to to them of someone coming here and investing a bunch in bots againts their own values and principles.
If the benefit does not, and it almost never does outweight the value they put into their principles you get hate. Whats 10mil USD in investor money locked in bots mean for someone that earns 1USD per post... A slight increase in steem price?
More max upvotes for bot users to buy.

People and communities hold values and those that uphold those values are loved. Those who do not are not.. Thats the way it is.
Kpine and Vortac are investors as well. Do people give them hate? Maybe if they dont upvote them. But tgats social media and theres no changing that.
