I was wondering how many people are still active on a daily basis on Steemit and in general? 

Since Bitcoin dropped pretty bad and most of the altcoins as well, it got really quiet and not many people aren’t active anymore. For example, platforms like Steemit or crypto-related discord, Youtube channels or even forums. Basically platforms that talk about crypto, these are the ones that are now getting really quiet but as soon as the market change, there back at it again…

I mean, I get it because of the money, right? If lots of coins are bringing in massive amounts of money, then people are active because they (we) didn’t really do a lot for it (yeah trading) but you just buy it to make more profit out of it but not because you’re loving and supporting the project? Or do you? 

I could be wrong, and I’m not saying that all of the people are like that, but that’s just the feeling that I’m getting from being on Steemit, Youtube, Exchanges, Forums, etc. 

Don’t forget that you always get rewards at some point if you’re doing something to get it so don’t give up on it and believe in it what’s right for you. You could see this as believing in the right coins and supporting them where you feel it’s worth it or in your own life if you just started a business on your own. 

You can’t just walk away because it’s a bad time at the moment and then come back when it reached a better time, do you know how rude this is? I do not understand that type of behavior in any situation. It’s like someone is talking really lovely about you because you’re standing next to them and when they turn their back, they are just going behind your back.

<h4>Anyway.</h4>

My point is that if you have trust in yourself and believing in achieving your goal, then you have to work for it! Try to see your life from a different perspective and ask yourself if you want that this would happen to you. For example, having friends ‘who are always there for you’ and are there because you’re feeling good and so on…but if you really need their help or support then all of a sudden, you’re standing there alone!

This is the point where you need to handle the situation on your own, or if you have real friends, they will always support you doesn’t matter in what way. 

Since I do my best to work from home, grow my own business, making a living out of my passion and knowledge that I have and learn over the past years, I get rewarded for it! Why? Because I believe that I can do it and that I have the strength to do it! Of course, it would be much easier if I would have friends that would support my vision and share my videos and articles, but this isn’t the case, so I need to deal with the situation and move on! 

I can imagine that this is a similar situation for (good/real) coins, who want to change the world, but we do not share the same vision with them because we are just coming back for the good times. This must be hard for them to make the change happen really!

You know what’s strange? Every time I watch a Sci-Fi film, it’s always so far in future, but at some point, I think we could have already reached that technology or lifestyle if we would work together and support and love each other more! But this isn’t really the case…instead the government continues to brainwash us, and we are kind of getting stuck in time, because every time something unusual happens that could destroy the government or the idiots above them, they are trying to get rid of it or try to influence us with ‘’bad media’’ so that we won’t support that idea. 

Great!

Thank you,
