need a bunch of large fish to start using them to sell things

2018-08-15 13:32:58 UTC  

yeah
not necessarily large fish, just fish you want to interact with

2018-08-15 13:33:32 UTC  

your local drug dealer has to accept steemit for it to go up in value

2018-08-15 13:33:34 UTC  

no, it needs large fish. a few of them

2018-08-15 13:33:45 UTC  

like amazon, walmart, and target or something like that

2018-08-15 13:33:51 UTC  

places normies go

2018-08-15 13:33:57 UTC  

was the darknet silk road a large fish?

2018-08-15 13:34:15 UTC  

not really

2018-08-15 13:34:28 UTC  

like, public large fish

2018-08-15 13:34:46 UTC  

microsoft accepts bitcoin, but they dont even know that themselves when you contact support

2018-08-15 13:34:56 UTC  

well that is the problem

2018-08-15 13:35:07 UTC  

none are really out right supportive of it

2018-08-15 13:35:28 UTC  

its hidden away like a good return policy

2018-08-15 13:36:03 UTC  

well my point is, if we look at youtube for example, pewdiepie wasnt a large fish to begin with. youtube made him a large fish.

2018-08-15 13:36:20 UTC  

true, but that took time

2018-08-15 13:36:22 UTC  

someone told me steemit is a scam

2018-08-15 13:36:29 UTC  

i think it is a scam

2018-08-15 13:36:36 UTC  

seems too good to be true

2018-08-15 13:36:38 UTC  

oh then it must be a scam then, because hearsay

2018-08-15 13:36:38 UTC  

when i tried asking them how it worked I got a bs non answer

2018-08-15 13:36:45 UTC  

so i dug into how it works

2018-08-15 13:36:47 UTC  

sounds about right

2018-08-15 13:36:50 UTC  

I think its a game of hot potato

2018-08-15 13:36:54 UTC  

its akin to a ponzi scheme

2018-08-15 13:37:06 UTC  

so long as they claim its worth money people can cash it out

2018-08-15 13:37:06 UTC  

i was about to say that it seems like a ponzi scheme

2018-08-15 13:37:11 UTC  

everyone called bitcoin a scam

2018-08-15 13:37:17 UTC  

but they use I think 4 types of steem

2018-08-15 13:38:48 UTC  

well i don't know the fundamentals so i guess i don't know enough to defend it

2018-08-15 13:39:25 UTC  

cryptos are ponzi schemes IF the goal is to make money.

2018-08-15 13:39:39 UTC  

you need new investors to pay off current investors

2018-08-15 13:40:06 UTC  

so if you are selling steem as a way to make money, it is very much a ponzi scheme

2018-08-15 13:40:27 UTC  

I'm listening to this brand spankin new trans governor of Vermont on NPR rn

2018-08-15 13:41:31 UTC  

NPR, dear God.

2018-08-15 13:41:41 UTC  

Yep, my mom is a lefty

2018-08-15 13:41:44 UTC  

lmfao.

2018-08-15 13:42:02 UTC  

Anytime I've ever heard NPR it made me cringe.

2018-08-15 13:42:13 UTC  

Hardcore leftist propaganda.

2018-08-15 13:42:27 UTC  

Ye

2018-08-15 13:42:59 UTC  

I have hope for my state. both major party candidates are business men.

2018-08-15 13:43:01 UTC  

Oh god
