RE: Grumpy middle-seat flight blog
This is outrageous. How dare you express such opinions? ;0)
I saw that big account. It's a bit shit but it does seem that in ways it's becoming a vehicle for big investors to claim their ROI. One of the things I have always had issue with is this argument. The ROI thing, it's not as black and white as big investor types paint it. What they are making is profit as their original stake is not lost and can be powered down and sold anytime.
But it doesn't sound as good if you claim you invested to plunder unending profits on your invested stake. Lol
Anyway, you're right grumpy since turning 40 ;0)
I have been a bad lad 😏 40 and British soil did it I'm sure.
I can't fathom how the network can survive with this rent-seeking, but it has so far and so maybe I'm in a huff about nothing. Or maybe it's only cause there is 50% not voting, and some people doing a bit of sharing (and losing out).
Gah! Is it pale ale summertime yet boom?
It won't be long and then it will be pale ale summertime forever!!!
Oops that sounded a bit dark.
It's the fact that more and more people seem to be using bidbots and thinking it is normal and the only way to be seen and make money. Heck, it might be soon if everyone ties their money up in them but then as you say that way is doom. It's so short sighted. I wish they would change the reward curve so that bid bots were disadvantaged or those mysterious* big accounts that hire out delegation would stop it.
not mysterious*
Dark/pale/alabaster?
Yeah it's where we are, large stakes want ROI. Hopefully other options will be forthcoming, although I've given up holding my breath.
I'm in the UK, going to seek out decent pint out tomorrow - hard work in Spain!
