Price predictions are price predictions. :) lol. People reward what they want to hear, not the truth.

Or maybe they are not so much predictions as misinformation designed to manipulate the sheep to be fleeced, and "rewarding" them gives these crypto influencers extra cred (as well as recycling the reward pool back to the cabal)

That's certainly true as well.

I wonder if you view that any differently as a recently exposed, exploiter of a community. Is stake.. Yours? Does it allow you to earn more?

I just laughed at how neither side would likely apply the same logic to both sides. :)

I hate what happened, but it's a problem with POS.

This is why you are popular on Leo while I got some massive downvotes when i posted there

Sorry to be a retrospective nasty bugger, picking on one of your posts when the other accounts posting on leo are far worse in this respect, but the financial predictions/narratives on Leo are just utter bullshit.

Your payout in Hive of 25.45 for that post is higher than all but one of my posts this year! And you know that wasn't for your amazing original content on that shitpost :)

But you are the only person mainly posting on Leo I'm still following...

I don't mind, that's fair. I mostly just talk about what the crypto people are talking about.

You may well remember how many times I have said I don't consider myself to be a writer or a content creator.

I engage with people, talk about issues, don't shove my views down other's.

I use a friendly tone and always question my own views.

You see Hive as a "Publish Your Work" site. I see it as a social economic network and fully acknowledge I hold no special talent when it comes to writing, in fact, I'm pretty bad at it.

That's why I have always disliked and disagreed with the Quality Content BS. Publish a book if you think you are Shakespeare, the Internet is for casual engagement.

I would also like to point out, that I don't have a big vote.. so, my network doesn't come from financial importance. I have more Cub than Hive or Leo.

I do the exact opposite really!

Yep, and variety is a good thing. I know you think everyone else is simple and delusional and many are. In 2008 I had my big wake up about the world and power and money and politics. Part of the reason I still love crypto. It's an ongoing battle for freedom. But I'm over the UPSET phase. Or the evangelist phase. Those with power will always try to keep it, and do nasty things to do so. and those who don't feel powerful will look for ways to find it/take it.

I just wondered if after being accused of "using your stake and being over rewarded, if it occurred to you that for a 2 day drama you were on the opposite side of the very issue you so often talk about.

It clearly didn't occur to "A" that he was destroying the mantra of Hive's whales, as he tore apart a community, because it wasn't fair. The irony was fun. The attack of what I hoped was an autonomous community wasn't. And to make matters worse they folded. Sigh.

I wonder what those who are mad at crypto now were thinking. A bunch of rebels invent a new money and entice the world to sue it... Did you really think they were going to say.. Gosh, we need to make a better product, hope y'all come back now.

Or did you think they would use media, billionaires, congress, fear and terrorism to hold on to their power and money?

I'm surprise that so many seem shocked and disillusioned.
