Guys. I want to take a minute and share something with you...

... the idea that is substratum is..
HUGE!
Net neutrality and our first amendment rights hang in the balance of a fight that we can't win with conventional petitions. In case you haven't heard, a key player in the effort to decentralize the web is here.

These tokens represent WAY more than money.
I encourage anyone not in the know to read their whitepaper and see for yourself what it is. I am a NEO(Antshares) holder and can think of ways substratum can make it better. It is the push we need. They currently have the ICO underway , and here is a post I contributed concerning it's possible uses. http://cur.lv/16i4pj
10,000 substratum tokens go to the winner with the best suggestion. Developers have put a 72 hour deadline!
Here are the rules..
They want ONE Good site, or an example of something (already in existence, or not), showcasing Substratum's strengths as a concept. Turns out it isn't so easy, but it does get one pretty freakin' excited that i was smart enough to invest.
Anyway, Here is Mine. .
"Hey!
So my suggestion took a while to consider. Bear with me, if you will, for this suggestion has implications reaching far and wide. It is ONE suggestion. There are just so many ways that It could be said.
Education. REAL education. The kind that doesn't censor Dr. Ron Paul, preventing the inception of points of view that could change our future for the better. Dr. Ron Paul's videos on Youtube have been cherry picked for censorship, this according to a Wikileaks release not much further back than yesterday. They have never been proven wrong so I find this a perfect example.
Presently, the state has every outbound signal intercepted. We are all subject to this invasion of our 4th amendment right. Taking if further the internet is censored in those places where free speech struggles in public. We have access to only 6% of the available data without a VPN to hide behind, They full well intend to override it's effectiveness or outlaw the VPN together.
Helping us win the battle on net neutrality without a petition by inventing a grass roots site that intended on teaching humanity's youth the real, whole, and objective truths long forgotten due to censorship, and our collective indoctrination could very well return to us our voice.. our power as a people. How is there free speech where there is no privacy? Don't we all act like someone is watching when we have eyes on us?
A rational and educated society, capable of independent critical thinking along with the communicative skills necessary to debate the real issues, however controversial, is what we need. More than soldiers, we need education. With SUBSTRATUM we would regain our ability to function as a tribe, free from watchful eyes of the state, who's intentions remain... unclear I guess we can say.
We would have a forum that teaches everyone, young and old, only what is known to be true. There is only one version of any truth, likewise there is only one version of history. Our children are being taught that the 2nd amendment reads that they indeed have a right to bear arms, so long as they are in a STATE MILITIA, and this is just simply not true,
They would know what the Constitution said, if they ever followed it. They don't want us knowing our rights!
So to put it simply, my suggestion is this, using SUBstratum as an open source, grass roots educational resource, we can make the first move, and raise the upcoming and future generations in an entirely different world, A better world. And They could never stop that train once it starts rolling. -C"
Friends, as always I hope you are all doing fantastic. It is now my birthday, i made 30 years old writing to you guys! I wouldn't have it any other way. With hurricane Harvey out of my way, i can rebuild starting on this, my day! Go Virgos!
Peace and Love,
