Why Am I here?
- First I would like to say I have my own goals here in steemit and the most obvious is the possibility of earning an income. I also hold with firm believe, part of the solution lies within social economics. I believe in all the ism's Socialism communism capitalism any other ism and all the ist's too. I believe that just one of them is bad news for the majority of people and parts of all of them are needed.
- I also believe in community, probably you do too, as you are here in steemit. You will believe you can add to or gain from this community and either way you do. Reaping rewards or donating through votes or other method, It is all part of the same.
- I believe also that, with a bit of time and the meeting of the right people a sharing of idea and possibilities. The views and outlook of the average person can be changed to a more positive one for the future. I believe it is time to stop waiting for someone else to make things better for everyone. and if we cannot succeed in that, we are obliged to set a firm foundation for the next generation to build on.
So that is why I am here, the chances of coming across the right people at the right time to try do the right thing.
What will I do with what I earn?
If luck chance possibility and a bit of Murphys' law all collide perhaps, have a positive impact on the world. I want to change the future from the path it is on now. The same as most who entered the crypto market, not to gain from the profit that occurred, but to remove the reliance on FIAT currency.
- Leaving the FIAT leaves you with more freedom simply due to the control over your finances has been returned, You no longer need to pay extortionate fee's to use the account, where they profit from your money been there.
- For the traveller it offers greater opportunities, reliant on the acceptance of the currency in various places.
- For the artist, writer painter poet the list goes on, it opens doors to new incomes across borders.
When they have earned this finance tho, they are left with where can I use it. In their daily life need of food and bills to pay, a conversion back to FIAT will more often be needed. The stability of the currency and future prospects of the currency. The reasons are brought over from the exterior of crypto.
Support for crypto is needed outside of the community itself, add where possible used in daily life, food outlets, utility outlets, and expand on that.
We rely on a group of people, a company that already exists, a government who will outsource, a conglomerate who will profit massively from an investment to supply these things, at an increasing cost to ourselves and future generations.
I want to be a part of opening doors that allow Crypto to survive and as I am using Steemit, for Steemit to be one of the currency which does survive.
How I can see this can happen.
I would like to see a coming together to work on exterior to Steemit projects, which in return support Steemit, Mutually beneficial partners in a way. Basically we need Steemit.com to gain the initial investment. Which can be gained through content blog'd and posted. From the rewards an exterior company gains. It can make retributive donations to Steemit in support of continuation. Eventually these companies could be grown to back Steemit, and Steemit could become a backed currency or have a wider range of expansion?
- The initial investment is the hardest to get, and an initial goal to begin would have to be discussed upon.
- Where the benefits of this project go, remuneration if required, reinvestment to new or existing structure.
- Rewards or benefits to consumers.
- The game plan would have to be discussed and merited on a different platform to a forum, where the conversation can move at a quicker pace. Then the results of the discussion can be brought to a wider audience, for further debate. (This can all be done while establishing some foundation capital).
- Given an agreement can be met on an initial investment and a direction to take. A body or representatives will need to be set up. This should be in my opinion be made of the persons who put their heads together to bash out a positive course to go.
- I would like to note that this is not something designed to make anyone rich, but has the potential to provide a passive income. The levels of which also an item would need to be agreed on.
- My own needs can be summed up in I need 75K debt paid and 300 euro per week. Where I would not expect to get that from this company at the start, I do believe it has the potential to pay out higher rewards. I would like to limit the amount these rewards offer to a passive income by a max payout of around 500 euro per week.
- Should anyone wish to invest their owned Steem to the project. Remuneration for these investments would also have to have defined returns.
- There is probably many more issues to a start up company, then I have listed here. I am sure any query out there can be answered with satisfaction to the user.
If all of that can come together we have a chance of doing more then just leave the FIAT. You can increase the power of your voice, leaving FIAT is one way, but unless it is backed up by more, It is there alone.
What are blogs worth?
- The value of posts/blogs, is a whole big topic and one which is openly been debated at the moment, I would encourage anyone with any opinion, no matter what side of the road you walk, to voice their opinion in one of those discussions. Please avoid an argument on the forum, Myself I go by a rule of. If you have to resort to name calling or insult's, you have already lost the debate. But do comment, an understanding of as many views as possible is needed to evaluate something and gain insight.
- Ridicules as it seem's from the rewards at time's, every post does hold value. The measurement of how the blog or post is evaluated may be flawed. This is where we are at now tho and it is a solution we seek. I think we can mostly agree the reward system is top heavy.Just in case that needs explaining, Imagine if the Eiffel Tower was top heavy. How long would it stay up. The thing been, we need to find a balance.
- There will always be some people who are just out to benefit themselves, This cannot be helped and we must accept it is there. There are ways in which plundering of the rewards can controlled to a certain degree. These methods would not have to have any impact with the current system and it could continue almost as usual. Obviously the payouts would change, But it can be worked that these payouts are changed to benefit the plankton minnow player. (this also leads to situation of multi accounting, one deterrent might be, a longer initial payout time, proof of ID).
- Ultimately Blogs and posts are worth nothing unless they are kept. This means keeping Steemit open, and a positive community provides the best foundation for this to happen. The valuation system is what we have right now, we must work within that. I am open to discuss the possible methods which can be employed to prevent what by some is considered abuse or misuse of the system for personal gain with little consideration for the community as a whole. If requested, or interest shown.
- The value of blogs are also determined by how many post at that time how and what strength vote for each blog and what time they vote at, On the value of a blog, I can only conclude, the Value a Blog offers cannot be determined by the curation view or upvotes. Those are more signs of coverage and popularity in most cases.
- Buying upvotes, what do you think of buying votes in politics is it swing and roundabouts.
Let's create a loop where certain things fund themselves and expand without reliance on future exterior investment. Grow this to do two things. Create an atmosphere where the voice of those in need can be heard. While reducing the control of debt and corporations hold us imprisoned within. Can the big fish take a 1/4 slice so the rest can have a taste of pie? I guess that really is what needs to be answered.
