What Up Steemians,
I wasn't planning on doing a vlog this morning but I woke up to a sea of red. This obviously has everyone in a bad mood and negated all of the excitement that was felt when the markets were reaching all time highs. I feel that this is all by design though. As my man @geechidan once said the creeps from wall street are here now so what did we really except.
Sidenote: To all of the hip-hop heads @geechidan is doing a meet are greet on discord at 8 P.M. If you got some free time check it out.
Blood In The Streets
They are really thing as hard as they can to kill the spirit of this alternative market. It's to be expected as an institution that has been around for over a millennia and quite possibly even more knows all of the old tricks.
They are not going to take it lying down and make this financial revolution easy for the masses . What you are seeing right now is the banks fighting back and trying to ensure that they have a seat at the table.
Keeping it in Perspective
Now I know that not many people might not subscribe to astrology/astronomy but we just had a rare occurrence that happened with the moon two days ago. I did a vlog on it and I felt that things were going to get more topsy turvy as we start this new cycle.
Time is a funny thing in that it is only a relative measurement . You have to start from a specific point. It's the year 2018 but human civilization is much older than that. "They" started a cycle to usher in a new age and that is why we consider it the year 2018.
Another interesting fact is the the current western based zodiac astrology is based on the night sky as it was seen 2000 years ago. So if you were to use Google Sky and enter your birthdate and find the constellation that the sun was in when you were born that is your True astrological sign and not what is presented in supermarket tabloids.
Even if you don't believe in the zodiac you have to ask yourself why would this deception take place for over 2,000 years...
Moving Forward
These are part of the growing pains when it comes to cryptocurrency. If you were to look at this space it is only 9 years old . The last bitcoin block is expected to be mined in the year 2140.
We are only 9 years into a 131 year project!!
None of us will be here when the last bitcoin block is mined. What we are fighting for now will only begin the bare fruit long after we are gone. With all of the advancements in artificial intelligence and quantum computing I think cryptocurrency will end up playing an integral part in the next century and beyond.
So ask yourself what are your our personal goals outside of just making money. The currency in this current sea is only a tool to get you where you need to go. Stay Woke
