RE: The FreeBorn Society is getting on it's horse to ride!

Not maximizing profits is encouraging spam.
They try to maximize their profits and so do I.
Another idea is to power down, and convert to another currency, because what do you prefer?
Being more influential here, which you do not care about as it is, while not having internet, or being less influential and having internet, which paradoxically can help in increasing your influence.

You make no sense. Your argument is false: not everyone only wants money. Being driven by money alone is unlikely to make you happy, it tends to lead to depression and a poor sense of mental health. I can't force the spammers to stop spamming, I can only encourage people to visit my blog instead, by constantly creating good content. @stimilati, it's primarily a blogging platform. Not a financial market.

Your comprehension of what I wrote and perception of me are wrong.

I can't force the spammers to stop spamming

If you had a lot more money you could.

I can only encourage people to visit my blog instead, by constantly creating good content.

And if you had a lot more money it would have encouraged them even much more.

it's primarily a blogging platform. Not a financial market.

Bandwidth here is garnered with STEEM, the local currency.
The ability to defend your content from being downvoted to negative value and to retaliate is bought mainly with STEEM.

It is both a blogging platform and a financial market.

No. If I had 50.1% of all the steem on the market, I could project my own will onto everybody else. I believe in the right to free speech and thus cannot stop the spammers from spamming. But if I publish really good content, I'd attract more viewers – and people would move away from the spam posts, and upvote them less. If I resteem other good content, then more people will read that to. By becoming known as a publisher, and resteemer of good content I can deny the spammers.

You were wrong even this time.

However, as far as war against spam is concerned, much less than 50% of all STEEM in existence can suffice.

I believe in the right to free speech and thus cannot stop the spammers from spamming.

And this is why I believe STEEM will not last until 2024.
A recent discussion I found can make it last longer, but in the end it is still not scalable to FB dimensions even if for this reason alone.

Another example of extreme naivety and cluelessness.
Spammers need no authentic people's votes, their mastery of bidbots fueled and reinforced by self votes are enough to let them grow.

Im hodling, waiting for the moon shot.

The moon shot already happened.
I predict doom for steemit almost since I joined it.
I experienced too many long periods of dysfunction.

If you waited for a moon shot, you would have powered down like I do, keeping yourself liquid.
Being liquid also allows me to trade in the internal market.

Yeah, I got sbd tied up in the internal market, too.

I don't really see steem dying, too many true beliebers to let it go idle.
They were here when steem was .07, and they will be here if it goes back.
Nobody likes fedbook any better,....

Thank you for all them upvotes, but are you really coming out ahead?
I keep hearing that folks loose money on them.
