It is true.
I learned on Twitter today that Brock Pierce has made it to Steemit, and it's the day to celebrate that!
I am maybe the biggest fan of Brock Pierce and Crystal Rose.....this photo was shared on Crystal's Twitter account, and is the couple at Burning Man.
I guess the reason I am such a big fan is that I consider myself to be a true psychedelic....
Here's a quote from Rolling Stone, I bet you didn't know this about Brock Pierce:
"Pierce pauses and corrects himself, explaining that he’s giving away “more than everything I have, based on the markets.” A squall of knowing laughter fills the room. In the days preceding this meeting, the crypto markets either dipped, crashed or corrected, depending on what expert you ask. So, by Pierce’s own estimation, the billion accounts for 100 to 130 percent of his wealth. “That’s no concern of mine,” Pierce continues, “because I don’t need anything.”
This statement appears to be valid: In nearly 10 full days together, I rarely saw him sleep in a bed or eat a full meal. He crashed on random couches, in the back seats of cars, on tables at bars. He gave away necklaces, bracelets, food, money, time, tequila, you name it. His wife, Crystal Rose, the CEO of Sense, a company that builds messaging systems, describes him as a nomad who lives out of a suitcase for weeks at a time."
If you didn't know, Crystal Rose is the CEO of Sense Chat, a decentralized messaging app on EOS. I have learned a lot about her work recently, and am a big fan.
Anyway, I am off to upvote Brock Pierce's post! I was not sure this day would arrive, but it is here!
Cheers,
