RE: How DARE YOU question my AUTHENTICITY on STEEM! - This one goes out to you @themarkymark and the rest of you that hopped on that ship!
I hear you - I'm only looking at this from the outside.
I feel you too though. When the man cave was born and we were making tracks, whaleshares officially claimed it as a scam coin and that people should burn it whenever they received it. People were then too afraid to connect with us and plummeted our discord into absolute silence - forever dooming it. Anything I did or announced was laughed at and criticized - so I had to pull out of bitshares and take us in a new direction.
I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it now. One thing is for sure -- no-one is going to pull us out of this mess apart from me. But for now, I build, collect, and inspire!
Never give up! I hear you own your own coin now. Awesome. And keep doing as you are doing - this may sound like empty platitudes but I assure you it's not. I'm doing the exact same thing haha.
