@maarnio1 made a summary post of all the previous trading predictions and asks how the current month will turn out:

[How will the crypto contests perform in July?](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@maarnio1/how-will-the-crypto-contests-perform-in-july/)

@deathcross wants to check the current sentiment about Steem ATL:

[What is your preferred solution to the Fermi Paradox?](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@demotruk/what-is-your-preferred-solution-to-the-fermi-paradox/)

Most of you think that intelligent life is very rare or doesn't exist at all.

------

@xplosive might be on a path to find one answer to the Fermi Paradox question:

[What is your opinion about chips implanted into the brain / human  brain - computer interface (for example Neuralink, Facebook brain mouse,  etc.)?](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@xplosive/what-is-your-opinion-about-chips-implanted-into-the-brain-human-brain-computer-interface-for-example-neuralink-facebook-brain-mouse-etc/)

Increasing fusion between brain and computer could lead to a virtualized society without the need to explore distant galaxies.

@hermannsol follows this with another approach of gauging economic sentiment:

[Is it easy to get a job in your home country?](https://dpoll.xyz/detail/@hermannsol/is-it-easy-to-get-a-job-in-your-home-country/)

79% say that it is easy to find a new job.
