That's not the only reason. When a noob comes in and sees these 50 word + image posts getting hundreds of dollars while their posts that are actual quality might get .003 cents in upvotes, that is a

Good post. As a low level contributor, your points about not focusing on steem as a source of revenue are well taken. Though, this does ignore much of human psychology where seeing those who are best at

I agree with your conclusion, but IQ, maybe is just a simplistic definition. IQ is more like a persons ability to conceptualize topics. It will flow throughout, if their focus is math they will have an

Thanks for the chance.

I am not quite so confident that the price will explode in quite the same way. There's a larger pool of bitcoin now, and the adoption curve is more steady and cautious, so, I suspect that it will get better,

Windows itself is essentially spyware now. With Cortana listening to everything that the computer mic can pick up and sending that data whenever it phones home. (A hidden feature that cannot be turned

IMO, the challenge to get to that point would be that the crypto currency be used for more than building up steem to sell it for currency. If there was more of a market where people could buy 'stuff' more

Nice work. How was that made? Did you use perlin noise to generate these?
