Someone told my CCN post and published it on Steemit. They earned $400 [Editor’s note: The payout did not occur after the article was found to be plagiarized]. I earned substantially less. Why don’t I care? Because I am realistic about the nature of the Internet, the economy – and most importantly, Bitcoiners.
I often hear people say that hard work pays off. This isn’t always the case. Many times, taking the easy route is the quickest way to make money. Dishonesty, theft and tearing others down. And isn’t that what the global economy has proved itself to be all about?
Bitcoiners love to tout “free markets.” Isn’t someone stealing another’s post and profiting to the tune of $400 the perfect example of “free market.”
Many people discuss the Bitcoin “Community.” But, the Bitcoin Community is a marketing angle in order to entice newcomers to feel at home while entering into what’s determinedly nothing more than industry – with self-interest and plenty of lawyers (looking at you, Santori).
