This was actually painful for me to listen to. Jeff did a great job with the limited information he's been able to gather in this short period of time but throughout the show there was a great deal of bad information spurred mostly by Daryl's insistence on relaying Tone Vays misinformed position. Daryl's constant obnoxious fabrication of details, events, and mechanisms had me screaming.
Tone Vays does not understand what he's trying to critique and it seems there are a growing number of ignoramus' spouting his nonsense.
Otherwise, it was a good show and I'm glad to see more people talking about steem. I especially appreciated the hosts cool, honest and respectful demeanor.
If anything I think this illustrates there is work to be done in providing clear understandable information for people to quickly and easily grasp what all is going on here. There is plenty of information out there but it is not prominently displayed or easily located i guess.
It reminds me of all the people vehemently bitching "scam" and "ponzi" when bitcoin first came around and it did not fit into their existing cognitive frameworks.
I was saddened at the lack of knowledge and the spread of misconceptions in the program. It would have been necessary to have invited a core dev on to the program to make up for the newness to the system of ALL of the participants. None of them had a clear understanding of any of the concepts really.
I agree. I felt exactly the same. However, I think Jeff was unprepared. He needs to take more time to understand Steemit before going on anymore interviews. As for Daryl, of the view times I've listened to the show he has been always painful to listen to. In all, a lot of misinformation, misunderstanding and confusion. Disappointing show. One of the few times I have reversed an upvote.
You wonder what those bitcoin maximalists are afriad of?
Darryl does NOT add anything to that show.
Ian brought him on and coddled him a few years ago, it was weird. Like he was dating him...?
Darryl pretends to be knowledgeable about anything at hand. Ian will say, 'oh, but Darryl is highly intelligent'.
Unbelievable. Nobody really liked him at first, and I get the feeling nobody really ever learned to.
Except Melanie, she may be his love interest. Don't know.
I like how you say people were bitching "scam" and "ponzi" when bitcoin first came around. They're still doing it right now! sick..
