Weird, I was just thinking of you, and several other interesting people who are no longer around, poof you appeared.
Steem had potential, and Hive still does.. but the mine was a terrible idea for the distribution of tokens.
The skill set it takes to mine tokens with broken instructions and the skill set it takes to be a visionary with purpose are very different things. In addition, they had way too much arrogance to hire any consultants or even listen to those with organizational backgrounds, so here we are. Some still writing plastic essays. :)
What a ride though, I'm happy for it just the same.
