"(...) producing quality content matters" and that is the #1 reason why I pay attention and set myself into the proper mind frame to write my articles as well as my comments and replies. It helps us all on the long-run!

I very strongly believe that trust in the quality "content is the product that is being offered by Steemit.com in order to give value to the token STEEM.", thus the quality of information shared becomes paramount in the success of our common venture on Steemit.com

as much as I would love to like the physical currencies, history shows over and over that because its physicality, it can be stollen. On the other hand, a cryptocurrency of the strain found through Bitshares and Steem allows no one the potential of stealing it from you, in itself, the #1 reason why I would opt for digital currency over the physical one. The situation we find ourselves in right now in relation to the build up of an hegemonic centralized governance widely corrupted convinces me once and for all and, with the advent of Bitcoin, I couldn't help myself but to move in that direction. When finally Bitcoin found itself decentralized through Bitshares, I was totally and entirely taken in till governance becomes once more true to the law of nature's ways.

Thanks again for a magnificent post of such high quality. All for one and one for all! Namaste :)

P.S.: I figured that the sentence where you wrote "I have since lessened by distaste for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies" actually must have meant to say : "I have since lessened MY distaste for bitcoin and cryptocurrencies"...
