This bullshit comment should be aggressively flagged.

Sure, but there's ONLY bullshit comments on this thread.
I seem to be the only one here actually holding Lumens.
I find myself increasingly muting people here already two of the Fuddists on this thread

I'm actually long on Lumens. They actually have a product that's being used. I'm new to Steemit and am wondering if its a place for deep thought or just something else
By the way this is my first post.

The intelligence level is on the whole mediocre here to say the least but as compared to other social networks, there's much, mostly tendential, talk about crypto - because a few pundits are earning money with their projections. They couldn't do that on Google, FB or Minds.

Deep thought about other issues, rather not - and keep away from politics. Steemit's self-regulated by the herd, therefore primate fascism is of the schoolyard sort rather than vertical, and taboos best not be touched upon.

"You are not the only one..." (with Lumens and -possibly- mixed emotions, about this self-regulated -by the herd- area. And to point: always the herd´s opinion/ decision is wrong)

Herd deliberations by definition have to be compromise... that gives herd animals an edge in their immediate ecological niche but it also manoeuvers them into a mental corner from which it's extremely hard to escape, evolution-wise. Maybe it cannot be done, which would explain why history repeats itself.

Btw I yesterday read someone commenting that steemit should force upvotes to be given in a "more egalitarian manner," and that the rewards pool should also be shared more equally. That is such cool herd animal thinking.

If we talk about herd - animals, I agree with you. When we talk about a big amount of people that is in the same boat (like this herd) the word is not compromise for me. We are growing as animals but not as Humans, it´s more like a livestock herd, maybe lams?

This ideas of democracy or egalitarian society works as grass for them.
as society we spend our time in front of a dark and cold glass screen, closing our real windows (eyes).

I don´t like to compare the human stupidity with the perfection of wild animals... livestock are just poor and dependent animals.

Maybe is just that, the result of a life of bad quality food, insufficient good quality pure water, zero nurture, without real love, real care or real attention. A life of blind slavery and fashion followers.

And here we are, as part of this.
Poetic.

I also have some Lumens, which I wish I dump a few days ago ;(

Yeah dump them now, we'll all be better off then

I also hold about 50,000 lumens. Maybe too late for me to dump them... all I can do is to hold on to them until the "soon to come" rebound

Last! :D

Stellar will always mimic XRP Ripple. Both have huge long term potential with REAL USE CASE.
