That is the difference between those driven to produce and everyone else. No amount of money will stop someone who wants to change the world. My prize isn't money, it is making the world a better place for everyone and taking a small cut off the top.
My efforts with BitShares and Steem created the foundation for systems that have produced almost $1B of value distributed among tens of thousands of people around the world. I get huge satisfaction making everyone else's life better.
I believe in you @dan. Thank you for everything that you've done and continue to do.

Reading the first couple sentences reminds me immediately of Ayn Rand's philosophy.
The next sentence is the part that I think Ayn Rand failed to grasp or acknowledge and what all her haters love to cling to. It's spot on though
The producers shape the world and find satisfaction in the very act of creation, there's a value in the core of that act that's worth more than the realized physical results that come as an outcome of the effort.
Is there anything more valuable than living a life where your daily actions align with your values and your work fulfills the purpose of seeing those values realized?
Congrats for living your values at such a level that the impact IS changing the world we live in. Well done.

Thank you Dan! You got my attention with your meticulous explanations of the EOS vision but you really gained my support when I read your steemit introduction post. I think you shared very personal and painful information about your life story... that in itself is a rarity and I am grateful for you sharing. It's also the single most important piece of information to understanding where your fuel comes from. I have been exposed to much hurt in my own life and cannot even begin to express the level of passion that is has created in me for turning world upside down and helping others. I am not a coder but am a quick study in many things and would help you in any way if need be. I know that's a very generic statement but I absolutely mean it. Don't hesitate to ask. Keep up the great work! -Josh

I agree with your view point and know that its about changing the system for the better. This was analysed on my latest steemit blog post.Issue is that, those of us promoting the great projects do not get noticed, only those promoting lies and fear.
Feel free to see my latest post about how I exposed @dan ´s secret plan to take over the world. More success to you and I want to be 100% part of it...fired up and ready to go.

@dan , really, anyone that has seen your interview w/Jeff Berwick on decoupling violence from government knows how deep your values go. You are succeeding. You will inevitably make both Ethereum et al better along the way because they will have to strive to compete. Thank you for keeping your moral compass intact and allowing nothing to deter you.
