RE: The Joy of flashing the STEEM account-value!!
great to see this addressed.
I've definitely debated Powering Down as Steem price increases, for this reason alone.
Should Steem moon at some point, I really don't want it publicly visible what my SP is worth.
That alone should be something to consider, if we're collectively wanting Steem value to rise. Both from the side that it may be a deterrent for large Steem holders to keep Powered Up, and that potential investors may not like the idea of having to keep their investment size publicly exposed.
I've rarely ever gotten involved in the the witness voting, but you've got my support for this issue alone.
Appreciated your service in bringing voice to this matter and initiating the change towards a solution that protects the privacy of Steem investors. 🙏
Exactly my point. Why would any big holder keep holding SP if the price goes to $100? $1000?
At that point it would make more sense to power down and start a company in the real world.
Yeah, a lot of people holding crypto even in Russia got robbed. But how do you think it is possible for someone to know what your account worth? If you haven't ever flashed your face or whatever?
If using a pseudo name and have kept identity secret a whole time, sure.
For others whose profile names match their real names or have revealed them along the way, it’s a different story...
They'll find out eventually after you post enough. Analytic techniques allow for it to be very difficult to not link your flesh identity to your pseudonym.
bernie is Zuckerberg's boyfriend. He's protecting Facebook's interests by making sure SteemIt becomes ShitIt. :-P
Look at his comments and you'll see how he uses 13 bots to keep rewarding his bullying comments, over and over again, thus scamming every Steemian out there.
