The law of attraction on New Years Eve/Day. Let's plant our wishes in the blockchain and see if any of us gets it granted! :)
Everything you want in life starts with you wanting it FIRST.
- So let's make a wish and share what we want together :)
I originally was going to ask YOU to make any type of wish for this year, and then I figured I'd get a bunch of "peace on earth" wishes... so I narrowed it down:
SHARE A WISH OF SOMETHING YOU'D LIKE TO SEE THIS YEAR IN CRYPTOCURRENCY
This year, I'd wish for some country, anywhere on earth, to fully support cryptocurrency and make it 100% legal to transact it, run a business, and for it to be taxed at only 1% when it is converted their national currency.
Imagine if they did...
The first country to do it would be massively rich as the millions and billions started transacting through them every single day.
Of course people would say "we'd have to worry about the criminal element" flowing money through this country.
Well listen.
When was the last time you had a driveby shooting with a gang full of bitcoin holders?
- Did they stick out a machine gun out of the car window, or did they spray bitcoin private keys at the victims?
- If you think for a moment you could stop them by cutting off bitoin funding, you're sadly mistaken. Gangs and driveby shootings were here BEFORE Bitcoin... so you can see how stupid it is to worry about it.
I was also going to mention about the obvious 9/11 "gang". But interestingly enough Bitcoin was created 2009 and that happened well before Bitcoin was even made.
So all this attention by media and government saying that new laws need to stop, regulate, control, and even ban the use of cryptocurrency is wrong.
When was the last time you heard of anyone getting attacked because if it wasn't for cryptocurrency, it never would have happened..
I think it is ridiculous to worry about the anonymity of financial transactions when it is the actual items they buy, or the travel the take, that can stop unethical people "with good financing" from doing bad things in the world.
Government needs to focus on the real problems plaguing the world, and not wasting time on virtual currency. There are so many other creative ways to watch those who need to be watched. I mean, what is the TSA doing for us these days?
....anyway, that's my New Years wish. For any country to make it 100% accepted and approved. To be the first safe zone for cryptocurrency transactions that is 100% a right of its citizens.
... Maybe you would just like to see Steem go up, or Bitshares, or even EOS. Those are all good safe bets too.
But this could be a time, when making a wish, to hope for something BIG AND HUGE to happen this year.
My wish is for more people to find ways to build bridges between compatible DPoS chains (BTS>STEEM>EOSIO) so we can have more options for creating like-minded communities that share content seemlessly between them, without the threat of downvote retaliation for it.
Dare to dream!
Thank you for your input, thoughts, and intelligent conversations you have shared with us all throughout the year.

At some point, we're going to have to re-invent these two things:
...because they are obviously out of wack if Dan Larimer doesn't make either of those.

I want for starters Steem to rocket! So many people will be benefiting from this, who normally wouldnt have access to this kind of money. Simple souls, people in 'poor' countries, hard working writers will benefit from their efforts.
Apart from that it would be fantastic if certain cryptocoins would get more mainstream, so people could get used to the idea of 'new' money!
Lets enjoy the rise and see what happens, Happy New Year to you @intelliguy

Happy new year to you too.
I want to do a toast to someone special like yourself. To explain, someone who is living in a place, many of us would love to try, but wouldn't try for one reason or another. Someone who had their vehicle flipped and destroyed by a massive storm, and by their own ingenuity made it functional. Someone who is new to steemit, but experienced in writing. Someone who constantly beats all odds and not only shows strength on getting past things publicly, but someone who admits she's finding her new abilities.
You are one of the great moments where I met someone special in 2017, and it all started by you leaving a comment on one of my blog posts and me visiting yours.
(listen for the glass klink)
Cheers to karinxxl!

Wauw @intelliguy, all these compliments. Im blushing in the New Year. Very sweet of you to say all of this, cool this little minnow is being noticed.
And about living here, yeah. True, so many people would want to make such a step, but see so many reasons not to. I think for me the step was easier, because my parents moved me around as a kid, and apparently it didnt kill me ;)
That changes your perspective on moving around . Actually it isnt that big of a deal. And yeah, this year had a huge learning curve in new stuff hahahah

I will like to wish for a mind boggling growth in Steem which will be beyond it recent growth last month.

I want a cryptocurrency that stays true to Satoshi's one-cpu-one-vote where everyone has an equal share in crpyto mining. These days its a monopoly of people with more ASICs .They are able to control the market. A crypto coin that is resistant to all these would be nice

I want people to be more honest in how to generate and use cryptocurrencies not only for their own benefit, but also for others.
I want to focus on the case of this platform. The idea of making money while helping others to generate profits is excellent, typical of a society that works as a team (as it should be, society is not under a concept of individualism). And as in everything that is created (or not) by the hand of man there will always be people who want to misuse that creation.
In the last few days, I have witnessed fights between whales or people with a considerable reputation (through posts that I've seen about spam and flags). Obviously, everything is for power, money ... I've to admit that I don't know many things about cryptocurrencies, but I'm sure that kind of behavior in Steemit won't come up with anything good in the future, if this continues.
I want to say that there should be certain adjustments in this platform in order to control (at least try) the abuse by the users. The rules exist to be fulfilled, they protect us from each other and from ourselves.
And for the end, the most important thing, happy new year @intelliguy! :D

My crypto wish is for it to provide as many people with the financial freedom as possible. Crypto is one opportunity that is available to everyone, even the common man, which may enable him to have a brighter future.
A side wish is for governments to allow the working class / poor people this opportunity. The working class and poor have very few opportunities to better their life once they are submerged in the rat race; crypto is a lifeline for those that are sinking.

I only wish someone with considerable SP will give me an up-goat in a daily basis so I can make a full-time living blogging on Steem. That is all!

I'm hopeful that DAG gets some more attention. I think lower power consumption than blockchain and faster/ more transactions gives it a strong upside potential!
IOTA looks great.. I'm interested in seeing what else comes up though ☺
