Is pure Altruism possible on Steemit?
Altruism is a behavior that comes from nature, a behavior seen with insects and some other creatures who are completely selfless and are acting for the greater good of their colony. Can altruistic behavior be implemented here on steemit? Selfvote would be a thing of the past and you would be able to cast votes everywhere else and boost your fellow steemians (voting on an alt accounts would be a tough nut to crack though). Naturally the value for yourself would still come from curation rewards and from alturistic behavior of other people. Can steemit become a place where you provide value without selfvote, or will selfvote be a forever prevalent constant on here?
Can you make it on Steemit with a Lone Wolf mentality?
People feel the need to network and make contacts on steemit in order to improve their rewards via different channels like steem chat, discord and other ways of communication. My question is can you make it here without a need to network? I personally don't like to bother people with my issues and payouts, and most certainly I wouldn't like to be constantly bothered by anyone if I used any of those channels. I did ok on steemit without using networking, I only used steemit and the comment section, so anyone wondering can you do the same, you probably can, but it will take time and effort, it is probably easier to network around. What I'm trying to say, both ways will take time and effort. What do you prefer to do?
Is true freedom possible with the blockhain technology like Steem?
I'm sure many of you are asking yourself the same question. By true freedom I mean complete financial freedom without the need for 9-5 job some of you love, but most of you absolutely hate. Spending your short life on some meaningless day job to feed yourself and your family is something Blockchain technology is trying to eradicate. Steemit is the prime example of that. While we do suffer from startup issues and extreme volatility of the markets, the time will soon come when we don't need to worry about those things and just be a part of a new revolution. Will you become an Arbiter of Change, or will you just leave this place and forget about all the benefits it can provide for you in the future?
