The BLURT, STEEM, HIVE Trifecta (and then some)

[Tokenista]

Here is a Simple Method you could use without too much effort.

First, Buy BLURT now. Sell BLURT at $0.50-$1.00+ (it could go as high as $5.00-$20.00) or just keep it as BLURT Power and earn Curation Rewards until Sell time.

Then Sell and use proceeds to Buy STEEM or HIVE at near $0.15. Wait for BLURT to drop, Buy more BLURT. Sell BLURT at Market spike,
Repeat

I was around when Bitcoin was $5, I saw Litecoin, Feathercoin and DOGE happen, Peercoin, etc. Then Bitshares, Ethereum and Steemit. So I want to announce a Bubble, a Moon Ramp, for everyone because this coin has no presence on Bitcointalk apart from a thread I made here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5283079.0

I am not the Developer, just an account holder.

Here is how we are going to be creating Earnings that are not like Wages, but like an Oil Well

1.Blurt, Hive, Steemit + Minnow Support + Canna-Curate + Steemit Communities (APPICS, DLIKER, PunicWax, etc) + Hive Communities

2. SBD + HBD ---> Blurt

3. Blurt + Steemit + Hive + Canna-Curate on Bitcointalk

4. Steem-Engine Tokens + Hive-Engine Tokens + Steemit Communities + Hive Communities + Scot Bots

5. TRON TRC20 Tokens + Bounty0x

6. Blurt ---> STEEM Power

7. STEEM Power to Steem-Engine and Hive Engine, back and forth continuously selling Tokens and STEEM as needed for Liquid, or buying BLURT, etc..

8. DTube Clones

9. Blurt Forks

10. Several other Blockchains

We can also start trading Gold and Silver for Currencies, once a few people do that the value will basically be backed by Gold, and the person selling Gold for Blurt at $0.02 makes tons of earnings on the Blurt Moon Ramp.

SBD & HBD ---> Blurt Power
Curate and Continue until Blurt is $0.50 or $1.00

Cash out 1/3 Blurt at $0.50-$1.00

Buy STEEM Power at $0.15 or so

Be a Steemit Whale. Help new people earn SBD to buy BLURT.

It is like Built-In Buy Support, we just suggest to everyone "Hey, you know you can buy BLURT with your SBD/HBD earnings?"

I have been going around telling people they have BLURT on their STEEM accounts from March 2020. If we can get the word out that BLURT is a STEEM Fork, and help everyone understand what that means:

We can bring in new users who will be active BP upvotes, or they will dump on the market and we will be active BP upvotes after we buy their BLURT

It will give a jumpstart to the recruitment effort, and people that have no idea what any Crypto is but Steemit and BTC, will be telling people about BLURT.

People will be prepared to create their own Forks when the SocialGraph project is done.

Everyone should understand what BLURT being a STEEM Fork means.

People are afraid of Change.

So when someone is watching a Bull Market, and see it fall, they think it is bad.

Market Fluctuation is not bad.

I just want to point something out. While telling people to Sell SBD and HBD, the Steemians and... Bees? They call me's? might think that their economy will suffer. And sure, the STEEM and HIVE Cashout economy suffers short term.

But how long does it take your community to realize they can buy a $1.00 Coin for $0.50 or $0.75, the SBD and HBD will stabilize, and the same way SBD and HBD are being sold for BLURT which will bring profit, that now allows SBD and HBD to be bought for a profit.

A purely upward Market is not necessarily the best Market for the person who is trying to make money, and can see what is happening.

There is no Announcement thread, so I thought I would discuss it here.

"The Blurt blockchain was created using a prototype of the SocialGraph generator. A platform that, once refined, will be able to churn out turnkey blockchains based on any Blurt snapshot, just add witnesses! The SocialGraph team are the founders of Blurt, which is one of many niche chains intended to be launched via SocialGraph technology. You may have heard Zapata for example will be launching once the Blurt bugs have and best practices have been ironed out."

Anyone who invests now will have a stake in several future Blockchains that have yet to be forked.

Blurt is about to Moon Ramp. There are 400,000,000 coins in Circulation today, at 10% inflation, the whole thing started this August. But only like 600 Active Blurt Bloggers & Curators/Voters. As there are 1,000 active users, and 5,000 active users, and 50 people holding 1,000,000 Blurt each refusing to put it on the Market, and actively multiplying their funds by Voting/Curating, the rewards go up and the platform grows.

What is coming is a Bubble, like the Housing Bubble, where these currently $0.01-$0.02 may be as expensive as $20.00 as people around the World start to flood the platform. 100,000 active users is not a long shot for a place that pays you to be there. It will then Stabilize probably at a few Dollars. Then, finally, once there is a Stable Ecosystem and Stable rate of growth instead of a big influx. Then at that time we will still be earning, but there will be the inflation slowly bringing the value of each one down like the U.S. Dollar's inflation. But that will be from the higher stable value.

This all happened with STEEM, which stabilized at a few Dollars after starting at fractions of a Penny. Then Justin Sun bought Steemit, and all those people that had it locked in earning on their accounts, took it out and dumped it on the market. That is the only reason STEEM is as low as $0.15, but even if Blurt were capped at $0.15, and it isn't, that would be a 700% increase if you bought to today.

Hello friends,

Apparently in a post like this, we are supposed to include information about listings in a prominent position.


Blurt is listed on:

• Ionomy
• Beldex
• Steem Engine
• Hive Engine
• Stex

There, I have listed our exchanges. We anticipate a probit listing very soon, as well. A number of large exchanges are in posession of user funds, largest of which is Upbit.  Learn more here:

https://blocks.blurtwallet.com/#/richlist

We figure that those larger exchanges will list eventually or hopefully at the very least ensure that users get their BLURT.



What is Blurt?

there are many ways of looking at this question and I intend to get into most of them in this post, which I anticipate will be rather long.

My recent learnings and research have shown me that Blurt is first and foremost a governance change to the steem blockchain, available at the option of users. We sent a special node into the steem Network, That was programmed to dump state, specifically account names, public keys, and balances. Since we were getting rid of the SBD concept, SBD was converted too BLURT at the price reported by the steem network's price feeds at that time. So when this special node synced to block 43,526,969 It stopped syncing and wrote to a file called snapshot.json.

Even today, that file is required to start a node on Blurt, and you may review it here:

https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/QmPrwVpwe4Ya46CN9LXNnrUdWvaDLMwFetMUdpcdpjFbyu

If you hold one of the 1.4 million steem accounts that existed in block 43,526,969 then you can actually log into blurt and begin using it exactly the way that you used steem.

https://blurt.world

I would like to tell you about some of the things we have changed and our future plans because in fact we don't really see ourselves as competition to steem or hive but instead another path.

I titled this post with the phrase economically rational because I think that most likely Dan baked some irrationality into steem to increase pumpability.

The irrationality was of course that there are no transaction fees. Without transaction fees, a chain is doomed to certain forms of spam and unbounded state growth. Both of these are very unhealthy to the blockchain organism.

https://blurt.world/blurt/@jacobgadikian/blockchain-application-tco

The ideal blockchain organism has a symbiotic relationship with its user community. It pays its users to fulfill its needs, basically machines, upgrades, network service.Users advocate for the blockchain organism in meat space. Users ensure that The blockchain organism is well recognized and well understood.  In turn, the blockchain organism benefits them through its continued operation.

So one thing that Blurt is: a weakly intelligent form of life.

I'll also argue that chains that exhibit excessive centralization may be alive but are effectively slaves.

We have gone to great lengths to increase blurt's bus factor. Now the ideal bus factor for anything is zero. That means that the entire project team can get hit by a bus or die in a fiery crash and the project will continue to run smoothly.

Initially we had a bus factor of two, and currently I would say we have a bus factor of between five and 10. There is no company or other centralized entity although we have at times referred to a foundation. Generally these days, we are calling it by its accurate name, the shart.

In order to execute the needed changes to governance, I personally entered the accounts held by Stinc, Tron, and friends into a purpose-built ventilation system written in C++, designed to clear the fart smell from the air.  The ventilation system did not ventilate any personal accounts, as was the case with Hive when they created their continuation of the steem chain of cryptographically linked blocks.  Notably, Blurt is not a continuation.  We are a fresh chain with no cryptographic link to Steem or Hive, but we did use balances from Steem's block 43,526,969 to populate our genesis state.

Essentially, they chose to curate in a different fashion. We felt that the real problem was excessive centralization and that the solution was temporary centralization.

Blurt kind of sort of has dictators at this time. I am one of them, and my partner is the other. We have what are called regent capabilities on the chain. This is what enabled us to give funds to all individuals, whether or not they wanted our chain to even exist.  For the next 20 months, the regent allows us to curate the witness set, and that ability weakens each month. We actually don't need to use it much, here are our witnesses:

https://blocks.blurtwallet.com/#/witnesses

This is actually a radical simplification of the past situation. In the past situation, you had an organization that was effectively in control of the chain, while stating that users were in control of the chain. I can assure any reader that given the weight of the shart and the power enhancement provided by the regent, if it were necessary, we could dictate the entire witness set.

This probably opens up lots and lots of questions and I'm happy to discuss it but the basic idea here is to allow us to react and protect the chain while it is still a baby.

Would you send your 15-year-old kid to Chicago's South side without at least an AK-47?

I wouldn't.  So we also gave the chain an AK-47: transaction fees.

That's why blurt has the regent and transaction fees that are determined by the witnesses. If troubling activity occurs, witnesses can always increase transaction fees. If someone comes after the witness set, for the next 20 months, my partner and I can curate the witness set. We launched into an environment where we knew that both economic and infrastructural attacks would occur. Both have occurred, and blurt is now stronger because they have occurred.

Okay I realize that is a fairly hyperbolic example, but the base point about protection remains. In fact a blockchain especially a proof-of-stake blockchain requires multiple layers of active protection and as time goes on, that protection certainly does not require the sort of centralization that the regent implies. That is why the regent is programmed to get weaker and weaker each month for the next 20 months until it has no vote weight.

Cock fault tolerance

If you're building a blockchain that includes a media element, you had better ensure that it is cock fault tolerant. Cockfault intolerance can kill your blockchain. I actually saw that happen on another chain where nodes stopped operating because there was a sudden influx of a very certain cock that was posted all over steem by some gentleman NGC / Bernie Sanders.

That cock then flooded whaleshares and blurt.

And what a mighty cock it was!

This cock was so powerful It managed to get whaleshares witnesses to quit, causing the chain to fail. They had proven cockfault intolerant. A cock was enough to make them run away. Luckily, our witnesses are a harder sort. The cock motivated them to find a solutions to 2 gigabytes a day of cock spam in the form of links to an enormous, swinging  cock.

During this time, We at blurt, in particular, one engineer who I have an undying gratitude to, worked frantically to implement a feature that we had discussed pre-launch, transaction fees. These fees quickly served as a very effective cock block.

Trajectory

So what do we have?

We have a new way to execute governance changes on blockchains, which has received great validation because it has already been copied by the NewBitShares project.

We have a rapidly growing community of fairly fervent supporters.

We have skills and a human network that bridges several blockchain ecosystems.

We have the ability to export our own state, if we so choose.

So in the long run you should expect us to continue our hydra strategy, where our community build more and more front ends.  Expect language and topic flavored front end interfaces, and expect the most popular ones to end up becoming new chains so that we never run out of capacity or experience runaway state growth.

If our chain should become full in terms of transaction capacity, you should expect that we execute a fork upon the willing, which is different from what we did to start Blurt. The fork upon the willing involves users posting the public key to the original And then The Genesis state of the new chain will reflect only the current balances of the willing.  This prune stuff down to only active users who are interested in the new chain.

New chains will likely be based on Cosmos / Starport. It is an incredibly ergonomic tool for building new blockchains and I suggest that any engineers here check it out.  It even automatically generates raspberry pi images.  In our case, these new chains will be launched either to scale blurt or to allow a specific content vertical to have their own chain.

thank you for reading and learning about blurt.

[Tokenista]

If you want, once BLURT "finds its price", you can use BLURT, STEEM & HIVE like a Bank.

1. Live on the Interest

2. Earn Rewards

3. Only do Big Power Downs when you really need something, and try to always keep your balance high enough to continue with 1. and 2.

Something everyone should know. This applies to BLURT because BLURT is a STEEM Fork, meaning it is an exact copy of STEEM from March 2020, but everything after that is independent from what happens on Steemit.

When I joined Steemit in 2016, it took 104 weeks, which is 2 years, to take your funds out. I am fully in support of that, but it is not a well understood position. Most people think STEEM or BLURT should be able to be withdrawn in 4 weeks.

So I want to explain this for everyone.

Anarcho-Capitalists took over Steemit, and I left. STEEM was topping at like $20 and sitting at like $5 when I left because the platform became useless. Dan and Ned are the Developers, then the Bitshares people were the Witnesses and early adopters. So when they all got Anarchy Fever, no one could get an upvote unless they were saying "Taxation is Theft", and being proud Anti-Statists who literally think anyone who believes in a State is wrong.

You may think "that's democracy" or Majority Rule or whatever, but that is not good business for a Social Media Blogging site trying to be a real universal platform.

Apparently these Anarchists voted for a 13 week STEEM Power Down, so people could withdraw all their money. I started my Power Down during the 104 week rule, and never came back, so I literally had no idea this happened. I spoke to someone today and they said "it was always 13 weeks on Steemit", so that means that most people don't even understand how this works.

So, everyone wants their money when they need it, but that is why Steemit had a 50/50 Payout in Liquid and STEEM Power. So half is saved, half is held.

And you are supposed to use this like a Bank.

STEEM Power has 4% interest. So it makes money like a Bank, actually better than most Banks. Plus, you get Curation and Author Rewards. So if you think of STEEM Power as Money held in your Bank account, you can actually live on the Interest and Rewards.

And the fact that it took 102 weeks to pull it out meant that people had to be in it for the long haul. People couldn't just pull all the STEEM being used for Curation and dump it.

If that isn't obviously clear, you can look at what happened when they changed to 4 week withdrawals. It is $0.15 now and everyone is gone.

This could be resolved if we all just started coming in, buying it up, and holding it ourselves. But you can see how the 4 weeks was not really a good move. And really 13 weeks was too quick.

But, in order to raise the prices of these currencies, we can collectively do this ourselves.

BLURT is on STEX now
https://app.stex.com/en/basic-trade/pair/BTC/BLURT/1D

[Tokenista]

BLURT is on Probit and getting good volume, Buy now and you can then use your BLURT earnings to fund earnings on Steemit snd Hive. This way you have 3 accounts earning money on different platforms, where you can shift between them Selling one as it goes up, to then purchase more of one that is low, always gaining and gaining earning power.

Then you can earn Tokens also, and make your own Tokens and Blockchains, which you can announce on these platforms where you have been helping people earn money by Voting on their posts.

[Tokenista]

I just wrote this the other day, but think about while reading it that now Steemit gives TRX rewards, and is connected to TRON Link. So they just did what I was saying would raise the price.

And since Steemit is TRON Link connected now, it is almost positive that Steemit will support TRC10/TRC20 soon, and we may see Just Swap or Poloni DEX, or all of TRON Link, in Steemit and Vice Versa, since TRON Link is a browser.

It depends on how full the TRON Link wallet becomes with useful Tools for people to use, as more people make dApps.

This ROI focus, with everyone trying to give a higher % back than everyone else, and basing that on new users funds coming in are Ponzi schemes.

Just so everyone knows, you want to prove 3rd party revenue you are generating goes into it to make it work, and have real ways of new money coming in.

If a TRC10 is on Steemit you can trust it more, because there is a 3rd party source of revenue which is Steemit, it is not just you putting money from your pocket in to pull it out when 5 others put money in, there is new money being generated by the program.

Steemit needs Curation trails, bots, etc. This could all be accomplished with TRC20 and found right in your TRON Link Wallet.

A TRC20 Scot Bot like DTube for Steemit, maybe DLiker or UPVU, would be very interesting if it could be put in the TRON Link Wallet. It would actually be interesting to see any part of Steemit appear in the TRON Link Wallet.

[Tokenista]

The TRON Link price will of course go down at first now. This is an Airdrop.

But in the long term, this brings more users. Someone who sells their TRX for $0.02 maybe then buys, after selling, with STEEM but at $0.05 or more because they missed out.

And you can probably get TRX at $0.01 or $0.005 soon, because of the Airdrop.

But as Steemit users make TRC10 and TRC20 Tokens, they lock up more.

As they learn to Stake TRX and vote for SRs, they lock up more.

So then the price goes up. The first step is the more Holders. And since TRX and STEEM are both Justin Sun, if someone sells TRX and buys STEEM with it, that doesn't hurt TRON. And both will benefit from this.

Steemit is about to get big boost from TRON and vice versa, I can't wait until I can tip Steemit users with TRC10 Tokens or everyone have the ability to pay some TRON Dev to run a Scot Bot type TRC20 for them.

This is like a whole new Steem-Engine+

That was to be expected I guess,,, Justin Sun buys something and generally gives away TRX with it, but with the token and all related airdrops all so poor in value I do not think even giving double the TRX for Steemit would convince us to go back to it.

The principle problem here is TRON is now a reputation risk in my opinion:)
