Hey @lloyddavis, that was another ace session - too many thoughts running around my head as usual now though!
Seriously though, you’ve kickstarted some really great debate and discussion here at Gloucestershire Uni around monetisation, value and what this particular form of blockchain tech can offer to creatives and business-minded individuals.
Like I was saying last week, I think blockchain can get one into a bit of a Fukuyama / end of history mindset - where everything is just totally brilliant and anyone who isn’t part of the success story and doesn’t realise just how brilliant everything is just needs to get over themselves - but there’s something intriguing about the Steemit platform in that it opens out the entrails of a particular political economic way of thinking and lets you have a good poke around inside.
Plus I find myself getting quite drawn to @haejin and all of his ‘THAT'S 810.5% in PROFIT!!! IN LESS THAN TWO MONTHS!!!! 810.5%!!!!!’ vibe, and thinking about the value of way too many exclamation marks... and I’m totally loving having a whole bunch of new stuff to get my head around!
Hope the train journey was a good one 🚂
This is the first post and reader reply I have read and voted for on Steemit. I'm lucky to know Lloyd, so when I read the post I could hear him. Lovely, always.
Your reply was a very interesting read Math, I'm grateful for your perspective as a new Steemian. Lloyd's mind seeds are very special aren't they.
I've been trying to come up with something witty about 'steem trains' for a couple of mins, you know, to sign off with a giggle, but I've failed (this time) :-)
Onward.
thank you @mathlovett it's been really interesting working with you, I look forward to expanding a bit on what else you might do next. Let's talk soon :)
