Your math is wrong. 9,539,458,446 XLM plus 16 billion does not make 35,539,458,446. 9 plus 16 does not equal 35.

He looks like Woody Allen.

Viking craftsmanship FTW!

As Obama said in 2012, "One of the things about being president is you get better as time goes on". This no doubt applies to all presidents, prime ministers, and chancellors, including Merkel

I think that's correct. Dan said roughly the same thing in his post that I link at the bottom of my article, and I'm sure he knows better than me.

You have a point, to a certain extent. People who already have a high reputation seem able to post junk and still get it upvoted. Whereas those with low reputation can post quality and it'll be ignored.

Although the information can't be removed from the Steem blockchain, it could be filtered out by the Steemit website. So the government wouldn't need to shut down Steemit. Rather, they'd just enforce some

Although the Steem blockchain is decentralised, the Steemit website is unfortunately not. That means Steemit could be forced to not publish certain things that are in the blockchain. Another site could

And given that Bitcoin has now reached its transaction limit its almost a sure thing that Steem will exceed Bitcoin very soon!

The Steem blockchain is decentralised, so no content can be blocked there. But Steemit.com the website is centralised, so the admins could block at that level if required. The offending content would merely

Out of interest, how long were you expecting to survive on €6000, and in which city in Germany? Minimum cost of living is around €800 per month - - and that is for the cheaper cities. So with €6,000 total

Hello Mike! Greetings back to you from another south-Germany person! I'm in Munich.

I'd say the Bitcoin crash has already happened, and now comes the recovery. Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't still buy Steem. :-)

I think everything is going to change once sentient robots are built. There's no doubt that will happen eventually, it's just a question of when. If it happens within the next two or three decades then

I think it's more than "just neurons firing". I mean, what are neurons? OK, they're cells, made of biomolecules, which are made of atoms. But what are atoms? What is any matter? There's a theory

I'm in a similar situation to you, @perduta, born in England but now living a number of years in Germany. I even took German citizenship, but I don't feel at all German. And when I go back to England I

It turns out there was only one gunman, an 18-year-old German-Iranian. He killed eight people then killed himself. So pointless and sad.
