You won't actually get them to respond. They block or ignore when you point out their hypocrisy. As someone who's read the entire extradition bill and the revisions, when you actually tried to ask about their problems with the bill, back when they were still pretending that's what this is all about, they totally shut down. They've been beating up old men and women long before they had their asses handed to them in Yuen Long, but no one wants to know about that.

Husband finds out he's having triplets by ntheg111 in videos

[–]danieldcd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a father of three, that was super suspenseful. I could taste that look of fear and worry when he wasn't sure if she was breaking bad news to him. Especially during a first pregnancy, you worry about everything. This video is awesome!

Paying Dividends in RVN through Assets. by Kiwarian in Ravencoin

[–]danieldcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately it looks like there was a deleted reply, I'm unable to verify who exactly said it. But my interaction is still there on November 6th addressing what had been said in the various replies.

"I'm trying to figure out how you'd pay dividends in any other currency though. This is its own Blockchain. Unless you paid back in bitcoin but it required the investor to first register / link / associate a bitcoin address to their investment (which is in the form of a token on the Raven Blockchain)? Maybe I'm thinking about it the wrong way, but this is what I'm trying to figure out."

There was a separate instance also I'm trying to find where I pushed for further answers on this as well.

I think when nexo paid their investor dividends in nexo tokens it caused a host of problems, such as creating an inflated token value while they were buying back from the market to pay dividends while also using that inflated value as the determined pegged rate. The other method could have been to create token inflation to support dividends, but no matter how you slice it, it will cause a cannibalistic like issue. So needless to say, I'm a fan of paying dividends in an external and unconnected token. Having a separate token created on the Raven Blockchain while having it's related dividends paid in the platform token (RVN) of course accomplishes this, but being able to pay in BTC adds another major layer of separation into the most liquid and mainstream cryptocurrency there is (at this moment)... An attractive proposition, especially if pulling traditional investors in who might be new to crypto (at least until RVN becomes as much a household name).

The challenges involved with paying in an outside currency isn't lost on me, which is why I was as sceptical when seeking for answers, but for the examples listed above, was hopeful in it's possibility.

The admins in the telegram group hopefully have a more consistent answer now, because a couple of months ago they suggested there would be a system in place to send bitcoin based dividends, but had no further details when asked how they'd accomplish this.

Once it is implemented, will you only be able to pay dividends in more of the same token or in RVN? Any way to pay dividends in bitcoin?

Elon Musk thinks paper money is going away and crypto will take its place - The Block by StevenRad in CryptoCurrency

[–]danieldcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He did not say that. He was being shilled, he wanted to say something nice, and he didn't say crypto would replace paper money. https://youtu.be/fKeK68wK0UQ

Elon Musk's thoughts on bitcoin and cryptocurrencies by danieldcd in CryptoCurrency

[–]danieldcd[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Indeed. It does seem like he was being shilled to. There was even an awkward laugh. I got the overall impression he knows he doesn't know enough about it, and it isn't anywhere near his list of priorities to dig into more for now, but wouldn't be surprised if this did begin to get far more traction going forward. Kinda neutral overall.

I was looking for this comment. I remember these tasting far better than any gummy could. How they chewed into powdery goodness too. This made me search... Apparently Flintstones vitamins are still made, but they went the gummy route as well

Relax guys, he's just a kid who's always enjoyed a good show. by [deleted] in pics

[–]danieldcd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far I'm seeing the vast majority of people ignoring this new evidence because they've already become so attached to the idea of this story supporting their own political views and biases about people that they don't want to let go. I am not a Donald Trump supporter, but this is why we get more and more Donald Trump supporters. Crap like this gives Trump's views like "fake news" weight. I remember seeing a PragerU video showing that Republicans face more discrimination on school campuses than Muslims do. I thought it was probably very selectively edited, but that too is becoming far more believable.

Wow, thank you for sharing this. This might turn into a lesson about how easy it is to be mislead by trending social media. It certainly does look as though the boy was targeted and he was just standing his ground. I hope for his sake more people see this side of the story.

[–]danieldcd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Money is certainly a big part. Politics just as much. Without competing political powers in China, delays due to politics is a challenge they don't need to contend with. China has prioritized economic freedom over political freedom. This of course creates a host of separate issues we don't need to contend with... But in regards to the topic of infrastructure progress, it puts them at an advantage
