Are we all crypto addicts? Some probably are. Jerry Banfield admitted it in a recent video. He also figures others are also addicted. He says if we check crypto prices several times a day then we're addicted. I do that. Do you?
What's an addiction?
Not a psychologist or sociologist or neurosurgeon or whoever really knows these things, but it seems to me that if we see or do something that gives us some sort of positive feedback to the action of seeing or doing, then we're probably going to want to do these things more and more. There's probably some brain chemistry involved, maybe something with dopamine receptors or something.
Video games.
We all have played them, and some suck us right in, right? We want to keep playing. We're getting some sort of reward for some digital achievement. The brain likes to see us get rewarded and seems to make us keep doing what gets us rewarded.
And we don't have to be rewarded every time we do that thing! In fact, something like a variable payout schedule seems the most addicting. Like slot machines. You ain't gonna get the gush of gold each time you play. Rarely will the payout pocket fill with coins. But you know that it might just happen on the Very Next Spin! Why stop now and Miss Out on that!
So crypto is similar maybe?
You know dang well that most of these new tokens you're purchasing or thinking of purchasing so you don't Miss Out are going nowhere. BUT This One Might! So you buy some, and most of the time you regret it. But if you've been around a while then you probably are still here because you Remember That One Time when your 10 dollars turned into 1000 dollars! OMG So So Exciting! I want that Again!
Seems like it's not a pure game of chance though. It's not a roll of the dice where every 6th roll, on average, is a 3. Or every other coin flip, on average is Heads.
Someone is Master of all us Puppets.
Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my name 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master, master!!!

Maybe sometimes, WE'RE the Master! I have a coin to shill you! You will buy this token that I Already Bought! That will make the Price Go UP! When Number Go Up, I Will SELL! Then number may go down, but I got mine!
Not everyone has the power of persuasion. Let's see if I have it.
Lately I've been mentioning #PEPE on Hive.
Why do I like it?
It's an extremely well known memecoin that has already done super well on other chains.
HIVE really has no memecoin, and memecoins are HOT right NOW! Let's ALL get behind ONE memecoin, and why not PEPE! We do now have $PNS and maybe $BECK is coming in way too many months from now, but $PEPE is here and has been here for many months. It's pretty stable. It has a small but strong community.
It's getting a Game, from me. Not too exciting, hopefully not too Addicting! I don't want people spending too much time on things I made or created that may cause them regret in the future when they decide they want their time back. Sorry, can't help you with that. No one gets any time back. I can just warn you - don't get addicted to anything!
You better listen to this song. Many of you won't like it. It's METAL! \m/ It's loud and fast, in parts. It's somber and reflective in others. The bad guy wins at the end.
It's a cautionary tale! Don't let this happen to you.
Do Not Get Addicted!
My Activity
today was
Do you really care?
I barely care, and I'm the one who did it!
So I did errands. Hadda take someone to a cardiologist. I like the guy. He listens. He answers questions. I learned a few things. You should learn things about your heart. I hear it's an important organ.
Then I took that quotidian daily nightly walk yada yada yada... same old ship. I cleaned that up for you.
Anyway, I really do wish you a nice day! :)
Don't get addicted!
But buy PEPE

https://hive-engine.com/trade/RPEPE
No, don't buy them!
Why would you listen to me? I am not a financial advisor. I know NOTHING about your situation!
BUT BUY THEM!
No, please don't.
YES, DO!
Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings
Goodbye now. Good, BUY NOW! No really, don't.
Don't Get Addicted. It will be BAD.
You're still here? OK if you're gonna buy some dang memecoin, just get a few dollars worth. Have Some Self Discipline!
If you're gonna play my simplified #splinterlands like game, please just spend a little time on it, then go be productive! Your future self will thank you!
Seriously, it will.
