This space is moving fast...really fast. We have a new ICO hour upon hour, companies that I thought were long thought dead are being resurrected by saying that they will incorporate "Blockchain" into their business model and I swear I have at least 5 friends of mine who are sooooo close to being internet millionaires.
To be honest I am sick of the comparison to the current cyber-currency market being compared to the internet boom of the 90's I get it already. Instead lets look at it like this........
Teenage mutha *uckin Turtles
These Turtles where frickin everywhere in the 90's! I mean if you spit on someone in San Francisco chances are someone wearing a Ninja turtles hat in Orlando felt it. This was happening around the same time Bart Simpson was saying Cowabunga on a T-Shirt in 1990. This was nothing new for TMNT cartoon fans because they were already saying it since Mikey had been saying it since '87.
Yea...It's been that long
How are TMNT like Alt Coins?
Ninja Turtles were everywhere. Now here's what I want you to consider, back then parents knew a little about TMNT and they didn't "get" it until their kids were demanding the toy, wanting the VHS or wanting to see the movie.
Cyber-currencies aren't understood by some of the 'smartest' people in business. Yet they have pivoted on their views, and some have even become backers of these same currencies that they shunned. These Alt-Coins have been popping out of the woodwork and for a respectable portion they had quality ideas. Then I saw Trumpcoin....wtf
Here's what happened to TMNT. They got stale, they became "old product" Companies tried to bootleg them
The whole idea got bastardized with less-than-decent product. I respect the good stuff that is out there, but damn there is a lot of garbage!
So lets learn from each of the Turtles:
Leonardo Lead and be level headed- You have a strategy to stay away from #crapcoins, stick to it!
Raphael Know when to break the rules- If you see that Unicorn in the making GET IN ON IT that is not to be confused with getting on the next hype train. Its easy to get the two confused, trust me
Mikey This stuff is fun! Have fun!! Don't go overboard dude.....COWABUNGA
Donatello Be smart do your research and don't step in crap. If you're not smart yourself then....
Splinter Find someone whose market philosophy meets your own. I know they usually charge to be mentors, but dig deep around #Steemit as they have a great community.
Okay I'm tired....Thanks and full Steem ahead!
