A global free market...sounds so wonderful, and I couldn't agree more. The problem is we have so many entrenched big-money interests that absolutely DESPISE anything they can't control...like the emerging crypto markets. Still, I can't help but feel like it's the 40s and we are in on the ground floor of the plastics revolution or the 90s, and we are in on the ground floor of the emerging internet-based sector. Of course, there will be losers in the crypto universe, just as there are in any emerging business mileu, but I truly believe Steemit (if we can hardfork out the warts) has a much better than even chance of being on the winning side.
