it's not exclusive or special at all to get to post to the chain, it costs approximately nothing-- it's hard work to type as much as a cent's worth

but it still feels exclusive, somehow, strangely

i guess what you need is knowledge, we're the people who know how to be here on the chain

who know how to recognize whether they are-- that's the main conversation i've provoked on twetch by telling people there to please switch, is they're informing me that of course twetch is an open system, of course it's not a silo, they would never, and linking to transactions that do have some plaintext in them, then noticing other ones that don't, and rationalizing and denying

these just look like websites, you have to know how to check what's actually on the chain & think about whether it's an open protocol

so still a special place for a special few of us, a few people falling all the way down the rabbit hole while others have climbed carefully down a single story

yeah i've noticed that too, how there's a lot of people who are very vocal about BSV in the old information channels but completely silent on the chain,, Kurt's the most prominent spokesperson who does show up onchain too, but not really that much, there's really hardly anyone in BSV who's onchain more than they're on twitter

You would think the chain of the original unbounded trustless system would have more people interested in expanding on the concept.

but it's maybe 50 to 100 of us lol.

one would also think the utility coin would have leaders with names like Craig, Calvin and Jimmy who openly transacted on the network with its apps, yet we don't have that either.

What is the gatekeeper system??

Wow fast forward a few months and we learn that 80% of BSV'ers love the gatekeeper system over at Rare Candy as long as it helps them make a $.

they don't have a problem with existing systems. They're upset they not the ones running it, so they build their own like-control system.

I don't like what I see from bullishart

Where is the line between curators and gatekeepers?

its one thing to curate at the marketplace . It's a whole other level of wrong to have get through a "verified" art collaborative group to get into marketplace .

I thought people in bsv had distain for systems of gatekeepers.

Bsv is recently invaded by people erecting new gatekeepers and it turns my stomach.

Artists stay independent.

Thanks, there must be the different logic I am not aware of. Average Tx fee is like much smaller than 1 cent I presume, so the fact revenue is much higher is a bit surprising info.

ㅅThen, tx fee should be increased much higher to survive?

Goat is in my BSV family tree since he was an Ema referral to twetch

I keep them both going enough so they got traction and followers, which they did better than I.

Last spring goat was always top 5 on leaderboard, and Ema was a few notches below. I was usually around 15-20.

I floated early funds to other new users who were in and out of the top. I recruited and on-boarded pol tweeter J Song, tho she didn't stick around long.

In early last year probably 1/4 of the activity there related back to me.

who is in your bsv family tree that others would be surprised to know?
