It's not about speed or mainstream adopters. It's about an idea. It's not about the money. The foundation is more focused on getting food into Darfur right now. Congratulations to Dan and good luck with EOSIO. Taking an overdue vacation
- Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum creator, admitting defeat and quickly deleting the tweet :D
I don't think Ethereum investors had sending food to Africa in mind ;) that's steems job lol But STEEM does it in a for profit financially sustainable way that works on incentives of PROFIT for SELF INTEREST, allowing any human to learn to create Value and trade that work for money, not hand outs!
And for everyone doubting he would make this tweet, just check out the Ethereum Alliances work with the UN

Altruism will destroy a project. If you want to help people, it must help yourself and you mnust give people jobs to create value not just welfare and free stuff to become dependent. We need to let people make money online and leveragetheir own ability to earn money with a steemit Blog. Anyone can do it, there is enough room for everyone, and enough money for billions to work and survive. Steem and EOS are the way forward.
