I read most of the famous people in here, that are posting very very trendy posts. I call them famous because I constantly see them with high valued posts.
There are travel bloggers.
There are crypto bloggers.
There are pretty glamorous bloggers.
There are even elite grouped bloggers.
Each of the four of these types I read their posts and some I have to agree deserve the value of their blog posts. Then I see some that I am kinda left scratching my head because frankly all I see is the same thing that they have posted about over and over with nothing really new to add. Other than the fact that there is an increase in the number of voters.
It's like an echo chamber of self fulfilling increase in upvotes just because of the consistent posting of the **same thing.** Some are small celebrations with frankly I think are just being voted by a select few whales that have fallen into a loop. An easily forgotten automatic action that is just a mob following the proverbial **tail**.
*But don't get me wrong there are good content on trending, but some, I just don't know. And I know you will say, oh but that is their vote they can do what they want. But then again I am looking at the voters and start to wonder. Are they really consciously voting on them or is **something** else there...*
Life is better when you start **gaming a system**. Heck if I had a piece of the pie I would probably keep this post out of here and just let things be. I mean, from the looks of the accounts their stake do not grow, in fact there is a constant movement of the hive from within their account to exchanges. Heck if that is how they live their lives with the earnings then so be it. But when I read what are posted it all amounts, **again**, to just the same thing they have said many a times before. But. Said with different words. **The message are all the same.**
Then you have those that are all about the raising of hype with being bullish about this and that block chain. Promoting what is the next big thing that is here. I mean when I say this. I like to just a good laugh and just let things be. But when I see that it's about another ship when we are all riding and being in this ship. Why try to pull people off this ship to join another one. **Competition is great** but your ship does not win the race when the people paddling are being taken off the ship you are on.
I read also the posts about governments not being able to stop crypto because it's decentralised and the "governments" cannot stop this revolution. The thought comes to mind. *Have we forgotten the "Jackal"?* The days when governments went out of their way to pursue an individual. Servers are not dynamic. We cannot move nodes without detection. Especially when its a very busy one. There is an inexhaustible resources that legitimate governments control. So I just worry that all this talk will eventually piss the wrong powers that be and next thing you know the whole thing could be either tightly controlled or all together deemed as not beneficial for the whole.
When I think about all the posts about this crypto being unstoppable. The one major thought comes to mind is, maybe we shouldn't have this mentality that we are breaking the system, as opposed to ensuring that the system embraces this new paradigm by instead posting about the benefits it has for it, like transparency, non fungibility and security of information.
I know this posts is a jumble of ideas but heck when I read the posts here and notice these things I am left to my own devices and start to wonder and think. I won't say or tag names because what is the point. We can see them on the trending page.
**Gaming the system.**
