RE: Only 20 Days Left For Utopian Colony on IndieGogo! Share It Among The Open-Source Community!!
I am really shocked that this hasn't been picked up on more. I might go off on a little rant here, but I can't fathom how this is not getting more support. I feel like there are literally hundreds of users submitting stuff to @utopian-io each day. I have made submissions to Utopian three times in my life and two of them netted me little if no rewards while the other one got me only about $20. I still believe in what Utopian is doing so I gladly donated $25 to the Indegogo campaign. A quick look at Steemworld shows the Utopian-io account has given out numerous votes in the past hour ranging from $2 to even $50 in some cases. With hundreds of people contributing and benefiting from the services and upvotes that Utopian provides on a daily basis, why are not more people giving a little of those rewards back to make Utopian even better?
Yeah, I don't understand it either. I think there are at least 100 people who've received rewards from Utopian in the past month or so. Really weird that contributions to the IndieGogo are still sitting at $2.000 with only 40 backers.
I feel people only want to reap and not sow. Personally, I know the advantages I'd get when the colony is finally in place, but I contributed not only because of future advantages. Since August last year, or thereabout, all my publications on the blockchain has been contributions on Utopian. I can say that it is my home on the blockchain. I wouldn't want to lose my home.
I don't know how else to ginger people to back the campaign. But, I know for sure that, if Utopian or any other person makes this a contest, it would get reasonable backings, or maybe not. Oracle-d tried a contest, and from what we've seen recently, people would only talk or contribute just to get the gains in it.
