I Don't Want to Pick a Side!

This vlog was partly inspired by the blog post of @bradleyarrow which you can find here, where he didn't write about exactly these things, but I've got moved by this sentence:

Our, mine and your, first priority should be looking after yourself and your family in these new times. The second priority should be your brand, your business, your online success.

This is very true as we are living hard moments in our lives and it will be even harder in the near future, but that doesn't mean that we have to go with a flow... We have to create directions and lead that flow in the way where we want to be...

Another thing is all this blockchain drama where we are... The STEEM blockchain split to 2 chains, the old one and the new chain named HIVE... There was a lot of drama in the last few months and it led to community split... There were people that weren't 100% for one side, others have their personal principles, others had too big ego...

You get the point... People react differently and that's completely normal... The problem is when certain entities trying to force others to do some things... In this particular moment, it is a pressure to decide which blockchain do YOU support?

I would like to go a bit back in my personal history, just to explain better my standings about this topic... I think that I cared about picking a side and go ALL IN was in my teenage days... When we want to "follow the trends"... buy sports shoes only by NIKE, FILA, ADIDAS, or whatever was popular... wear Levi's trousers and nothing else...

We would argue for hours about who is better: Intel or AMD? nVidia or ATI? LG or Samsung? Apple or PC? Linux or Windows?

It's just stupid... lol... (it looks that Bradley made that word viral... :) )

I don't want to divide the world into 2 sides... I don't want to divide my friends into 2 teams... I don't want to praise one side and curse the other one...

I don't want to choose between 3Speak and D.Tube... I don't want to choose between STEEM and HIVE... Between Ethereum and Bitcoin...

We are on the SAME SIDE all the time... There is a place for both, ETH and BTC, Hive and STEEM, D.Tube and 3 Speak...

People can't understand that we are getting BETTER when we have competency in the industry... We are lifting up each other in those moments and giving additional VALUE to the whole industry...

We WANT CRYPTOCURRENCIES to succeed! That's OUR side!

Recipe for keeping Coronavirus away...

• Avoid touching your face, mouth or nose,
• Keep distance when you are on the street (if you are not in a lockdown),
• Stay home if possible
• Wear masks if you have symptoms
