Just last month there was a major issue and it took some witnesses a week to get back online. They are rare events though in which every witness will need to patch their version.
Hey @kevinwong all the best on your witness journey! I am so glad that you finally decided to do this! Thank you for all the you do behind the scenes for STEEM and the TM community! Yay! Another witness in sunny Malaysia! You got my vote!
Hi @kevinwong, I'm waiting to see your fully witness category and 01 hour ago you done it. I already voted your witness. I see kevinwong no.75 level in the my witness category. I think you start new journey of your second steemit life. Congrats and go ahead.
You got my vote!
Man, I think we just birthed our witnesses on the same day...
I launched last night.
Congrats.
I took some time off for the crypto winter for some introspection. What do I really want out of all this?
Conclusions:
I want stability with the ability to work on my passions in the crypto space. The roller coaster ride is fun, but I'm looking longer term.
I'm investing in property. Somewhere like, Austin, Singapore, Montana, or a coastal surf spot.
I consolidated my outrageous coin collection down to 3. Steem, BTC, and a platform. I decided I want to be invested in projects I can directly add value to.
I'm also advising one fitness related project bc it will keep me healthy so it fits with the lifestyle.
Then I launched a witness node to put my time and effort where my heart is.
Now my crypto time is consolidated. My life feels more simple. I'm down to grind without the worries of wen moon.
In reading your last few blogs, I felt some interesting synchronicities with my path.
PS. I also read the Alchemist twice last month, which gives nice perspective on the journey of our souls. It made me start hatching crazy plans like taking a cargo ship to steemfest this year. haha
Anyway, cheers to you and your merry Witnesshood.
Your mind and philosophy are a great addition.
lol happened to most of us in the game last year i think.. yeah feels good to wind down to a couple few now. a lot of waiting, but the grind is the grind..
You got a 93.54% upvote from @upme thanks to @kevinwong! Send at least 3 SBD or 3 STEEM to get upvote for next round. Delegate STEEM POWER and start earning 100% daily payouts ( no commission ).
I've read your words in the past pertaining to misaligned incentives on Steemit, and I know you care deeply about growing the platform, and that such thinking will inform your witness, especially vis-a-vis future hard fork voting, so I just voted for you. Good luck. :)
With the great things that you have done to the steem community, you surely got my support. Thank you for constantly building communities along with @donkeypong.
Voted you and with @steemph.cebu, our communal account.
hello friend apology will be that you can help me I need your help will be that you can help me with 2 or 1 steem please I need it, thank you and apologize for the inconvenience
Hey @kevinwong , i would like to hear from you what you think about platforms like Bitmex. How much of an problem are they for the entire crypto space? It seems like everyone is just shorting & longing since months and there is no real chance for other coins to make any moves as long as this platforms excist. Really would like to hear what u think about it.
Hello, what an interesting experience you have shared with us in the Steem community. You're very versatile. I also want to study system or software, I am currently a Mechanical Engineer, and I am very interested in this world of steemit... Greetings from Venezuela!
Congratulations for this great step and to have become a witness, you have my vote of support, keep it that way and always good luck with every decision
I applaud you on you move to become a witness. Reading over your witness introduction post really allowed me to get to know you and your intentions with and for steem.
"dev-to-dev communications about Steem-related technicalities" With a focus on Steem development and preparing for SMT and gathering knowledge and planning prior to deployment is a solid strategy as opposed to waiting for it to drop and then start working. I really like this idea.
I am working to become a developer and have what I would like to think is a great idea to launch the Dev community within and around blockchain to a new level using the Steem platform and developer community as the base. Lets just say school and development would change forever. If you would be interested in hearing more look me up. You have my vote of confidence and I wish you all the luck on your journey as a Witness.
even if that may entail waiting for the painfully long developments.
Yeah, but Tau's development is worth waiting for. I like that you include Tau in this post. Goodluck then, in regards with your witness campaign. Definitely worth supporting!
I actually really enjoyed this platform, before I only heard from my friends that blockchain has many advantages that facilitate trading and digital assets in doing business, after I tried it I could no longer leave it in my life. this really helped me in doing business.
I'm really curious to see how things will work out with you running as witness?
As I know you already have lots of influencing friends on the blockchain. So I expect you have a good chance to end up high. Let's see
So lots of people just love you as you are, while you don't put any effort in 😀
That sounds great. Especially the financial part in terms of Steem rewards. You should teach all of us. That helps to improve the churn rates (I think it's called that)!
@kevinwong Awesome article and detailed information, thanks for share this, interesting to see the journey going forward. I wish you all the best for all your projects and Witness endeavour here and soon having a Whale of a time!
More then happy to vote for you as witness @kevinwong , I have one spot left, and have always had you on my auto voter since I got it set up! I have also been on this roller coaster ride for 2 years and know where your coming from. Best of luck to you! You Have My Vote! Upped and resteemed to spread the word!I just set you up on my auto voter @momskitchen account as my main auto voter is full @karenmckersie👌👍✌😀☑
I stumbled across a resteem on my feed about your post.
In the last two days I have dealt with the topics "complexity" and "quality" and read some scientific contributions. As a balance, I read those of philosophers, historians, systemists and people working on environmental issues.
From the respective perspective of these people and views, there are urgent and important topics that all want to be dealt with and observed.
When I focus on complexity theory and what mathematicians and computer scientists say, I read that ...
The complex interdependencies of computational ecologies violate the traditional requirements for a hierarchical decomposition into technical, industrial, or administrative modules as used in traditional management. Modern technical communication networks are growing open systems which must be used without central control, synchronicity, or consistent data from other agents like machines or humans.
Thus, the dynamic theory of informational and computational ecologies, which incorporates the features of incomplete knowledge and delayed information, will provide well known evolutionary patterns like fixed points, oscillations, or chaos.
Under the conditions of complexity more and more control functions and human activities must be ceded and replaced by artificial intelligent systems. Human responsibility is not abolished, but restricted by collective and nonlinear effects of complex systems which cannot be forecast or controlled in the long run. Thus, we do not promote any kind of biologism or reductionism. But, under the conditions of complexity, it is not enough to have good individual intentions. We have to consider the nonlinear dynamic effects of computer technology, Artificial Life, and Artificial Intelligence for the future of human society.
You're talking about Avoiding Turing completeness and
a self-defining and decidable non-Turing-complete meta-language based on FO[PFP] with PSPACE-complexity that will support an internet of languages; thus enabling the scaling of discussions, consensus, collaboration, and production of knowledge worldwide.
I looked up the definitions, but I can't make sense of them. Can you explain a little more? I am a systemic consultant by profession and have been a supporter of the systemic view of life and interaction of systems.
Do you think that future human communities will no longer be able to cope with the tasks that await us according to the theory of complexity? If I understand it correctly, the conclusion is that we cannot predict the machine-controlled work, i.e. the communication from machine to man and machine to machine.
I had anxieties when reading and I'm afraid of this kind of technology. Do you have an opinion on that?
In any case, I read your article with interest. It's good to see that you give some of your personal thoughts on your decision.
I looked up the definitions, but I can't make sense of them. Can you explain a little more? I am a systemic consultant by profession and have been a supporter of the systemic view of life and interaction of systems.
It's quite a new thing so it's hard to find elsewhere, although the gist of it is actually the Semantic Web by Tim Berners-Lee, but of course, with some somewhat serendipitous twists enabled by a blockchain that stores the rules of the network.

If I understand it correctly, the conclusion is that we cannot predict the machine-controlled work, i.e. the communication from machine to man and machine to machine.
Just avoiding turing-completeness at the metalanguage, in which an internet of languages can be supported with semantics preserved, including turing-complete ones. It's just that this class of language wouldn't be able to enjoy the benefits of decidability and all the other good stuff offered by using FO[PFP].
Btw, Tau is actually not an AI per se, at least not in the form we know in mainstream industries which are mostly essentially statistical-based AIs. Tau is purely logic-based and I have not found it being romanticised in popular novels and such, which is for me, quite a good sign. Will be waiting for the demo hitting by end of this year and see how it pans out. Try to go through the website and blogposts - you'll get more answered by the developer himself :)
Though I have troubles to understand your used expressions. Which is either because I am not a native English speaker and/or used to a non technical language. Let's see what I can make out of going to the Tau side and the blog-posts.
P vs NP paradox is a paradox as stated only in the past (or future past), it was once a computer science problem needing a proof, but has now grown beyond.
in "Easy Words", we can say this:
P is what we call know problems we can solve (find answer) and if we have answer(s) we can easily verify (check that our answers are true)
and
NP are problems we can't easily solve (can't find answers), but ironically we know ways to easily verify (we can easily check if the answer are correct)
So the challenge here is that for problems that we know how to easily check the answer but don't yet know an easy way (in time and with finite resources) to find answer (NP), could we someday prove that it could also be easy to solve these answer? (P)
That by definition IS acceptable as a current (or past current) paradox.
Extra info:
Being a paradox does not mean something is infinitely unsolvable, it's just a paradox "for now".
SAT ( Boolean satisfiability problem) is the hardest know NP-complete scenario. SAT has became the NP goto test (in the constrain of time) to show that almost all (so far) know NP-complete problems can be expresses mechanically into SAT.
So solving SAT=P will prove that P=SAT=NP, there are in fact been a number of new theories now that have propose solutions to prove SAT=P, but it's outside the pure Computer Science Math, and has moved to Quantum Physics, or even new fields like Logical Physics, aka into the realm of Quantum computers, the future killer of many cryptographic keys, and possibly the demise of current Cryto-Currency (cryptography is currently the fastest growing use case using the unique nature of NP problems).
Now I saw another answer that I like to elaborate on, the Twin Paradox and the
Theseus Paradox. Both are or shall we say were paradoxes, but are no longer (or no longer complete paradoxes)
Twin Paradox (a math paradox - observation of fast moving object slowing down in time as observed by a twin moving away at very high speeds per Albert Einstein's formulas) - This one is actually solved by further proof of Special Relativity (in easy words - going very-very fast will slow time down for a person being observer relative to another at rest observing that person), so you could say time-dilation physics has solved this naive twin paradox.
Thesueus Paradox (a philosophical paradox of identically replacing all parts of a body/item would still defines that as the same person/item) - This one has actually partially been solved by Biology, believe it or not, every existing soft cell in a body of a person >10 years has been replaced, most if not all the soft cells have been duplicated a new even though the position or the mass of that person stayed somewhat static. By the very nature of long life organism changing cells, the biological definition is that if you change everything exactly the same in the cellular level at least (even thought the molecular level might have recycled some of the same atoms at different location), it is accepted as the being the same - hence paradox partially solved.
In simple terms - think of paradox like magic, or until it becomes knowledge or science that we still do not know till the future arrives with new answer, once we know them, it's no longer a paradox
I like your way of thinking. I often like to think outside the box though like schrodinger's cat for instance saying that there is a cat in a box but it is alive or dead? It is in theory both right up untill you open the box and then it is sealed in. Thinking outside the box could mean that if you figured out time travel you may go back in time to live the same moment but in that timeline the cat is acually alive in this time line and dead in another time line thus proving that not only time travel is possible but we are actually living in only one of uncountable timelines. and everything we do is the oposite on a diferent timeline.
<<For example: really knowing what's in the real world around us, from legal ownership to the things that I'm saying here in this post. Blockchains or any records of anything in life would rely on sensors (or oracles, human-beings, etc) to sense. But sensors ultimately require input, which is something that can be trusted 100% since we can just provide kind of signals, true or false, as input. So relationships and social networks still matter in the end even if we are to use the blockchain as a trust protocol for meta-information.>> -- BUT, yet the truth is cheaper. Cause it is easier to just let the mutual entropy between ... things, to reach its maximum. 'Faking' signals takes. Takes exponentially more than truth. Lie is like rowing against the flow of the entropic explosion which any system, incl. the universe is. Maybe this is the secret of the successful internal trust (enforcement) manufacturing which the PoW is. The processes within the network are sooooo reliably isolated from the general flow of the world.
Who if not you, Kevin? :-)
Congratulations on your decision.
I had to take away a vote from another witness in order to vote yours, but that's my way of showing appreciation for your contribution to the Steem community...
This is the second time I'm hearing about Tau. The first time being early this year and I think I promised myself to look into it. Well, this might just be a sign to get into something revolutionary with Tau. At least, for once, I will settle down and do something good.
I wish you good luck in your witness journey. Voted you, sir.
We need human, passionate, bright, challenging and active minds like Kevin, feeding the path of Steemit's Vision.
It's unquestionable the constant added value in the content and high-quality insights for the community in this last 2 years(it seems like 5 years to me hehe).
My best wishes and support, and thanks a lot for the inspiration and motivation to keep me writing on Steemit.
Thanks a lot @charlie777pt, it certainly feels like it's been forever. This year itself feels like 2 years lol. I guess we're just trying to make good content!
Hey @kevinwong all the best on your witness journey! I am so glad that you finally decided to do this! Thank you for all the you do behind the scenes for STEEM and the TM community! Yay! Another witness in sunny Malaysia! You got my vote!e
i agree with you that blockchain is still in its baby stage and i am sure it will capture the world soon , but again it comes with its own chanllenges.Most of the people do not beleive in this technology.They are still happy with their old ways, lets wait and watch , the game with change and all crypto lovers will be winners.
I just voted for your witness @kevinwong after I saw your name in the list. I believe that you are one of those individuals that have something to offer for the betterment of the steem technicals and its community.
I think the Blockchain technology is not a simple platform. Everyone can't understand this technology Initially. After a large experince lost of people know about this technology deeply.
I really don't quite follow your explanations here...but it seems interesting. Make it vivid in your subsequent post for novice like me, who might be interested in making money from crypto. Thanks
Please maintain the 0 missed blocks record forever. I actually hate when it delay and get error especially 504 gateway issue. I believe you can do it well since you are pioneer in Steemit. Keep it up! 😁
@kevinwong - shameless as I am I will rape the reward pool by upvoting my own comment with my massive SP to confirm i am voting for your witness. A MUST for 3 reasons: 1 - You DJ, 2 - You been one of the first 5 on Steemit to engage with me, 3 - You take care of the community. Will vote tomorrow!
@uwelang, If you ever visit KL, Malaysia, you should definitely meet up with Kevin. He is one awesome cool guy who willingly support the community and doesn't want to be in the spotlight area. As one of Team Malaysia member, I am super grateful we have Kevin here. I have met him a couple of times, but I didn't dare to talk to him because he is THE Kevin Wong. But deep down inside, I am really thankful. And totally support him as witness. Voted! And confirm voted!
My vote goes to you as you have shared best of your knowledge your post is greatly appreciated by me as most of people wants to know about these points as I.. And you help us alot
You certainly have my vote! I am actually @mother2chicks🐓 this is my 2nd account where I mostly resteem others interesting posts. You’d be a great witness😉
It is, I actually wonder what will happen when Bithumb fixes the wallet (currently Steem is worth 3.84$ in Bithumb with a +80% of the volume). All rewards from this comment will go to charity
I thought I may be too opinionated to be an adviser for entrepreneurs looking into the blockchain hypetrain… It certainly has affected and limited my opportunities as a wannabe adviser and content producer in the space, since my investment thesis now mainly resides in these underdogs.
While you’ve framed this as a potential drawback, I see it as a strength.
Sometimes limitations serve well to refine focus where it can be most effective.
Any entrepreneurs serious about bridging into blockchain realms would greatly benefit from your “opinionated” perspective, as there’s already enough B.S. hype. Yes, there might be a limitation of opportunities - but it’s one that will serve you well to filter out those who wouldn’t place proper value on the expertise you’ve invested in developing. Quality over quantity.
The space doesn’t need more cheerleaders on the hypetrain. The constructive criticisms you bring are priceless, for they address very significant issues that others may be ignoring due to over-enthusiasm and biases of their own which fail to factor in key systematic weakness of other projects. You’ve made a commitment to upholding an integrity and quality in what you offer - that is a foundational key to success which shall serve all you do business with extraordinarily well.
Should there be opportunities that pass because someone wanted to develop on other platforms they thought would suit their needs better, oh well. There are certainly plenty of other advisors who may assist them. Meanwhile, your commitment to focusing in on Steem and Tau provides a huge deal of strength for any clients/partners who do align and shall enable you to serve them to a degree of excellence that would not be possible otherwise - while also serving Steem & Tau.
Ethereum (and others) already have thousands of others in its service. Your insight, intellect, and skillsets can likely be far better leveraged and have a much greater impact focused towards Steem & Tau, two projects with outstanding potential that need your service much more than those on the hypetrain loop. While the focus might limit your opportunities, it’s also likely to ensure those you do create are of a higher calibre - and you are likely to create outstanding opportunities for others in the process that could not come had your focus been on maximizing the quantity of your own.
As for being “opinionated…” there are very valid reasons for the opinions you present. Should anyone not respect and value them, they’re probably not people you’d want to work with anyways.
There's no conflict of interest running as a Steem witness in massive support of Tau. Both of these projects can greatly benefit each other.
Absolutely.
May take a while to build the bridges, though there’s great value in the network & culture that have been growing here. Certainly, there’ll be much to tend to in both the conceptual and technical designs of how to integrate, though what’s been developing via Steemit could certainly be a huge leverage point for Tau, and what capabilities Tau could enable for Steemit’s communities may create massive opportunities for leveraging the value collaboratively generated via Steemit.
Still so early on in the game, yet fascinating possibilities ahead… 🙏
I guess I got a bit FOMOed by letting go of some big projects, but just can't bring myself to recommend something I can't anymore, which seems to be 99% of whatever's out there now. It's somewhat risky and definitely quite a bet to place it on just a couple of horses. Eggs in a few baskets vs eggs in many many baskets situation.
Still so early on in the game, yet fascinating possibilities ahead… 🙏
If you noticed ever since we joined Steem back then, we've seen a lot of energy and enthusiasm, ideas floating around and all. Then it slowly fades off like the rest of the crypto market. I think connecting the dots is something decentralized networks are still pretty bad at. It's not centralised like iOS / Android appstores or Facebook communities where people can find what they want to use easily and safely. But at least Steem has been able to do it fairly better than the rest of the market. I think Tau is when "connecting the dots" is taken to the next level in bringing the thinkers and doers.
Thanks a lot for the pick-up by the way :) - is that the right word? lol
Eggs in a few baskets vs eggs in many many baskets situation.
Perhaps. Though then again, consider it as a relationship. Yeah, some people might be able to juggle multiple girlfriends and that can work for everyone involved. But generally, you'll probably be able to build alot more deeper, intimate relationship with one person, focusing on growing and nurturing with them, versus trying to sleep with every hot chick on the block. (Or raising one or two kids properly, rather than adopt a whole village of orphans). [Weird metaphors, coming out at 1am after a beer. lol.]
I think connecting the dots is something decentralized networks are still pretty bad at.
Perhaps. But then again, being able to connect the dots in regards to complex systems is somewhat of a rare skill. Most education systems train people well in specialization - focusing in on isolated systems, rather than exploring and understanding the interconnections between them. i.e. health.What are the interconnections between biology, chemistry, physics of brainwaves, genetics, psychology, "spirituality," and how all that internal stuff relates to the external of relationship dynamics, cultural programming & memetic trends, societal crises & evolutions, economics, etc, etc...? Not too many people could answer that question. We might have some great specialists that are well-versed in sanctioned components of those systems - but when it comes to the skill of connecting the dots to domains of knowledge outside of their experience... 🤯
And bear in mind: we're still in the primitive days of blockchain. (As has been compared to the Netscape era of the internet). Being right at the beginning, this is unchartered territory. Not all can be expected to see what creative possibilities ahead - such may be more a somewhat shamanistic task for those whose learning and experience has reached across & down a breadth and depth of dimensions enabling them to understand the dynamics of complex systems - from the technical to societal, cultural, economic, and beyond. "Connecting the dots" is a rather rare skill exclusive to the few visionaries who can see the bigger picture of future potentials.
And even then, there's a gap to be bridged, as the visionaries aren't always the ones with the technical capabilities to get into effective action into turning those possibilities into realities. (For example, I can see the potentials - but am rather fucking clueless on how to really manage the communication of those visions and organize competent entrepreneurial teams in such a way that they could be brought to life, perhaps just getting a sneak preview and doing my best to share pieces of the puzzle, in hopes some readers might take parts and do something with them.)
I agree that Tau could be a massive game-changer in those regards, though - where contributions to discussions like these could be connected into others thinking & working in the same direction, leveraging off eachothers' input and having the AI element fill in the gaps and facilitate certain executions of ideas. I also sometimes wonder if I'm one of the handful of crazies who may be too far ahead of the times, the full visions not to be realized under after we're gone. lol.
Thanks a lot for the pick-up by the way :) - is that the right word?
Wouldn't be a pick-up, in terms of a car ride, flirtation/date, or upper-drug-buzz, though I know what you're referring to, perhaps as a morale-boost or simple encouragement... :-)
Very interesting post, i upvoted. If i may ask, do you think cryptocurrency are overvalued at this moment? What are interesting projects worth investing into?
Interesting take on the blockchain. The hype is all over, and everyone is rushing to embrace the blockchain as the cure for all the ills in modern computing.
Best of luck on your journey!
Welcome to Steem Community @kevinwong! As a gentle reminder, please keep your master password safe. The best practise is to use your private posting key to login to Steemit when posting; and the private active key for wallet related transactions.
I don't know if you're currently top witness material, but you surely have the potential to get there. I'll always remember how you took my recommendations for complete strangers I was curating before I even knew that Curie existe, and how you were the first whale who came by to upvote an unknown startup community like @comedyopenmic so generously and putting your faith in us experimenting with a volunteer base community with rotational leadership of international jokers trying to disrupt the blockchain with a little humor.
I've always seen your devotion the the little peeps....the heart beat of Steem, aka the minnows, I've seen your passion to curate and bring reward to the talented, but most of all, your joy of giving of yourself to others, in art, music, philosophy, positive inspiration, and even with your mouth covering bandanna mystique 😁.....that kind of sharing, that's your passion.
I'm honored to give you my witness vote, I've been asked by a fellow COMer for my witness proxy, nevertheless in the interest of supporting big hearted witness who I believe will help take us to a new generation here on Steem, I will ask him to support you, I'm hopeful he will, either way, you will surely have my vote sooner than later.
Welcome to the witness club, I don't know what you have planned as you climb the ranks, but I'm confident it will be exciting and will be looking forward to seeing your creative ways to disrupt the blockchain. Do us all a favor and raise the bar for all witnesses. Also when you do come up with something cool, let us know if we can help!
Will get the word out to the the community of @comedyopenmic, we got your back!
Steem On!
dj
Drop by discord, let me introduce you to everyone who haven't yet had the opportunity to get to know you <3
Many yap. Few act. Kevinwong doesn't talk much but he does a whole freaking lot. Add to the mindset of never overselling or overpromising aka shilling. It's called honesty and that is more scarce than "good coins" in this cryptosphere filled with greedy b*rstards.
You also have a supporter here :) ! I like your honest and straight to the point way of putting things @kevinwong and while I don't understand much (or about nothing) on tech and programming specifics I can agree on how we need to build communities that create points of interest for new and potential users. As a musician I've been finding a great joy networking around here and building new relationships , also it has allowed me to have some sort of revenue for my own art , also helping others is a possibility for me here , even as a minnow account I've been able to push and support initiatives that I like . After being kidnapped and blackmailed ....ahem....invited by @diebitch and @dj123 to the COM family I've come to see one of the hardest working communities around here and am also grateful for your support over there :) ! Cheers!
I still remember how in my first weeks here, I'd always come to your posts for some insight, humor and of course, upvotes. lol Also I've seen how you're always supporting the little guy, educating, and inspiring steemians in general to let loose every once in a while so, of course you have my vote.
P.S I still listen to "the girl from ipanema" from time to time so cheers for that too.
This is awesome, He's not much of a talker but I always know he's in the background, lurking and searching for quality to curate. Thanx for the smiles, the nudes the upvotes and supporting comedyopenmic community.
Kevin had my vote at Running. All the best in this journey @kevinwong. Thanks a lot for your effort in helping bring up Steem and Steemers.
Keep going, we gotcho back~
Eh that's too much good words lol. really I don't do much at all, just autovote all day long here most of the time now. Got no plans to climb other than what I've already offered on the table here on this post. Up the community dedice and share it out if they like it. Just want write stuff here and keep building SP.
ah you're too modest, you probably come from a culture who exemplify humility (ironically it's often not attain by most in such a culture).......your generosity, optimism for the future, and belief there is still space for altruism in humanity brings balance to our current world of so many who are over-focus on just resources, monetary value, and being self-centrict
you don't know yet, but this is just a first step for you into another journey.....you're an elected official of Steem now, be it by popularity, by good vibes, by old-school big fishes, or by calling....it doesn't matter. What matters is that you can start shaping the direction of where you want Steem to steer as we journey together.
Come say hello in COM Discord.....we need leaders like you to drop by even if it's just to visit our rabbit hole, it will greatly encourages the peeps!
I've always seen your devotion the the little peeps....the heart beat of Steem, aka the minnows, I've seen your passion to curate and bring reward to the talented, but most of all, your joy of giving of yourself to others, in art, music, philosophy, positive inspiration, and even with your mouth covering bandanna mystique 😁.....that kind of sharing, that's your passion.
Ditto that from me. I have kept up with this guy and he seems perfect as a Witness. Look forward to that :)
Hey @kevinwong! You inspired me to keep steeming way back when, and you gave me one of my first "heavier" upvotes. It felt good seeing someone with your rep and SP give me those words of encouragement! I believe you will make a great witness, and I thank you for all the support you give throughout the steemit community! You got my vote for sure!
EDIT
So after about 10 attempts to cast the witness vote and steemit not showing me any indication, I realized the added/removed spam via steemworld. Sorry for the vote spam if you noticed it :P
Oh my! Congratssssss!!!!Another big step for you on this fun and crazy steem world! I did vote as soon as I found out! You're prolly one of the funniest (most of the time #deep) witness on the blockchain!! LOLOL and to be honest, this post tl:dr but I get the concept! Though will give it more time when I get a chance so I truely understand! congrats again!
Will cast my vote after leaving this comment. I came here because of @dj123's advice, he does that more often put me (or someone else) in the right (witness) direction.. that's much appreciated though, because although I interact with a lot of Steemit members, and know quite a few names by now, I never have interacted with you during my steemit career. This would probably mean that I would never gave you my witness vote if he didn't do this... But I read your post, and I trust on dj's opinion (read his comment too) you seem to do a lot for the community, which I do appreciate a lot.. Plus two communities you support are close to my heart: curie and comedyopenmic..
So here you have my vote, and I'm looking forward to all the things you'll be doing for the community..
Welcome! Lol, maybe we should all make a collective post from the members @dj123 is commenting on or for :) lol you can send your entry for that post to my discord if you want to participate :)
I may be too opinionated to be an adviser for entrepreneurs looking into the blockchain hypetrain, as I couldn't even recommend anyone building on the popular platforms like Ethereum now. For fun, maybe, but I just can't recommend it anymore seeing that it's currently sitting at tens of billions in market cap, but only serving about 10,000 users a day in its decentralized applications. It's just still not good enough compared to our centralised counterparts.
Hello , i am working on steemit Platform, now with reputation of 36, looking to grow , if there is any strategy which i can follow and make my income $500 per month, kindly guide, also if there is some genuine online work, i am open for the same.
So my buddy's pat in the back made me think that I should now just continue to pursue my interests 100% in this space, wherever it takes me. So what's this Crypto Life™ about? It's just a clickbait and it really just means me being invested in my investments. That's how it all becomes currency I guess. I think it's a powerful idea.
I had a kind of dialogue with a client a while ago, but centred on bots, techs, cryptos, blockshains and other wizardry innovations doting the socialsphere of late!
Our conclusions in all these were :
Inasmuch as they are germane and welcomed; they can never provide absolute alternative to HUMAN NECESSITY !
2)They would so modify human existence to the extent of human regrets in the long run!
Nevertheless, the article by @ kevinwong is quite brevealing and should be appreciated by ALL . THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORT IN AVAILING US THE OPPORTUNITY

I had never heard of Tau before, but I think you're right about being on the mark re: language integration. Steemit was my first introduction to any kind of crypto and I've only been on Steemit for just on 6 months now, so still on a massive learning curve, will have a look into tau though, plus i like the name :P haha
Peace.
Man, you really shouldn't waited for so long to run for witness. Casted my vote happily. And great to know you are one of the earliest adopters of BTC back in 2009. Great write-up once again!
Been reading and learning as much as I can and this is the first truly engaging post that I can identify with. Great reading and I'm looking forward to going through more of your work as I figure things out myself.
Just voted for Witness, Good Times.
@kevinwong It is always good to establish contacts with people trained and responsible for disseminating high level information, where we can all become blues, and establish ourselves as great exemplary users of this magnificent platform, in this case I follow their advice and teachings and I am proud of being able to comment here in this great blog where the great make the great, thank you very much and continue to grow to support all the people who want to reach their level and to cross borders that if, without losing humility, thank you and will continue to be and faithful follower and reader of their publications. @raybull
@kevinwong my friend, you know I enjoy our regular banter, and I'm very happy to back your campaign to become a top 20 witness here on Steemit. In the end, I'm glad to have someone who cares running to become a witness and I'd be happy to give you my vote.
The only condition I have is that once you break into the top 20, no posts on self-fellation. Other than that, I'm all good.
Thanks a lot, this is very informative. There are humans in this platform pretending to provide information and click on-baiting customers. But this put up honestly packs a punch with all this information. well played sir.

@kevinwong I will try my best to vote you in witnesses every day you are great worker on steemit writing great blogs persons like you deserve top 20 in witnesses and I am sure you will be there soon good luck we are with you.
I can't let go steemit because of posts like yours! Go for witness with my support!
TAU estas la nova, nuntempa universala lingvo kiel estis iam Esperanto?
you're the one who gave the big shot in my first post, then I often visit your blog, get knowledge about blockchain in a language that is simple and easy to understand, thank you @kevinwong, good luck in your next step, running for witness
I am a bit new in steem and this tale has helped me to apprehend a chunk like this platform was earlier than, I simply noticed all the help you give to the users because I have been working on it for a few days now could be high-quality, I would love someday to be one of these folks that obtain your assist, I will constantly be helping you within the comments, my buddy, I am hoping you have got a pleasant afternoon.
You have my vote and I am very enthusiastic about your witness. Over the months (years?) that I've known you, I've come to understand there is nobody better in terms of understanding this community. And you have a great passion for making a better world through the blockchain. I encourage everyone to vote for @kevinwong.
I thought this was a post about crypts that were decorated all cool and shit like that show that shows off celebrity homes. FYI i'm going to be wallpapering my crypt and putting in parquet flooring. I know it's totally 70's but I think it will make people feel more at home.
While I start to do some research and try to wrap my head around what a witness actually is... I am starting to buy into everything everyone is saying about Tau on here. I still think I need to go back and try understand the fundamentals of blockchain before I start seriously getting into investing and understand exactly what the platform would provide for the world. In saying this though, I'd still like to know how I would do so and it seems like I cant buy any of the Agoras tokens anywhere? Where have they gone?
There's just no one single company dedicated to work on these platforms. Instead, everyone can and should take a part. But with the game as it is now, it has been difficult for users to connect with trustworthy applications, projects, and communities that are relevant. It's really a different ballgame when it comes to building a world of decentralized networks.. that work.
This is where I’ve seen ConsenSys as offering an immensely valuable service to the Ethereum ecosystem, for one example.
Might be interesting to see something be birthed and grow based on a similar modeling catering to Tau and other blockchain ecosystems in due time, as Lublin really seems to have done an excellent job developing the organization to support not only a thriving network of dapp development, but setting a fine example of how to bridge those innovations into existing realms of industry, enterprise, and governments...
Excelente blog. sigue produciendo temas de calidad.
Te recuerdo que para sin importar lo que pase, perseverancia y tenacidad es la clave para tu proposito.

Epic!... @kevinwong .... Perfect way to close out my night. Thanks for your solid read. As busy in life as I find myself, I enjoy this here social media platform of sorts as the one I enjoy and look forward to coming to visit. Especially when I get a heavy flow of gratitude for how things are playing out in my life. It’s pretty ironic in a multi faceted way that over the past couple years of me being a part of the Steemit Community I have come to find myself visiting this pocket of the web when I have the urge to reciprocate back to other solid folks whom I feel are like-minded. Tired of another long days work I realize unfortunately if I don’t cut myself off to a slim select number of intriguing ‘Posts’, I will find myself catching daylight as I can easily lose myself in all of the fine crafted material that has emerged here over the past couple years.
I love that I get to close my night on a perfect addition created by you that pretty much touched on what I do when I carve out whatever remaining time my eyes allow for me before I’m forced to abandon ship due to
unchallengeable wheights hung from my eye lids.
Times like this, as tired as I am, yet intrigued while filled with gratitude for life, I find myself just enjoying upvoting solid material and just simply satisfied giving from my bank, which is not too grand these days unfortunately. If I could I would throw a more large amount your way. I’m just afraid if I have another night of gratitude in the near future I wouldn’t be able to pass the ‘Goods’ to others as Id like. Hopefully the tides will turn where i soon may be able to do so.
For now, thanks from the good read and I appreciate the content and angle in which I feel you come from and aim for! Keep the vibe Alive!
Hi @kevingwong, I am so glad of your decision. As I already told you, you were one of the reason that made me sign in on Steemit, so you have my vote. I really hope to have a chat someday, somehow.
and most important... How was the Winner Taco icecream? That's the important one
Thanks for getting back to me Kevin. Wanted to talk you about:
What do you think of the current lack of "printing" of SBD?
How a Feb 2018 user can really grow? I'm struggling finding a proper growth without using bidbot with a 10% return. The whole system seems to be based on auto-vote right now, so I guess it's just having luck entering in some whale's list?
Following the point before, as much as I would love to be a super active member of steemit, it's extremely hard to be. The truth is that SP counts a lot in terms of being a Steemit "player", aside the content aspect.
The news tab is almost useless right now, it's just complete spam from people with -33 reputation.
I've a really strong idea/feature/app based on the sector I am studying, medicine. Have no developer skill to realize it, but if you want we can talk about it through Discord. Reach me out @bafi
🇮🇹
I just learned today that you've thrown your hat into the ring as a witness.
Based on your interactiveness with me in the past, and your obvious engagement with the platform that I've observed over the years, I have just now allocated one of my witness votes to you.
I wish you the best in that role, and expect that I will see more good things here on Steemit because of your involvement now as a witness.
Welcome to Steem @kevinwong.
Do read A thumb rule for steemit minnows - 50:100:200:25 for starter tips.
Spend time reading Steem Blue Paper to know how Steem blockchain works and if you still have any queries ask them on our Ask me anything about Steemit post and we will try to answer that.
All the Best!!!
Definitely giving you my vote friend

I think your second point at the beginning is something new crypto users are going to struggle with. Smart contracts aren’t that simple but some people that aren’t familiar with blockchain as us would trust it immediately!

Good luck with this and Tau - the secret is out!
I'm still quite slow at it tbh. The real challenge are the emergencies, if they happen..
Just last month there was a major issue and it took some witnesses a week to get back online. They are rare events though in which every witness will need to patch their version.
https://steemian.info/witnesses
A good start!
Supervisor ain't working that well for me, it somehow booted out my shared-file and i had to replay earlier
Beautiful post i appreciate your beautiful creativity thanks for sharing your beautiful blog post
Hi @kevinwong voted for you as witness, welcome to the family. I hope you checkout my witness profile also. Have a great day!!
Thanks for the vote of confidence! I'll need to grab some sleep first, the sun's up lol.
no thx, i hope you had a good sleep.
Thx for the vote on my post.. awesome.. I hope you also check if you want to vote for me as witness.. This can make dreams come true..
I am impressed with your post. But the block chain section is somehow unclear to me. I have learned alot from steemit. I love steemit.
I actually feel you'd make a decent witness; primarily due to the fact that you're particularly active in producing general content here on Steemit.
I find that many accounts running for witness don't necessarily bring much to the site, outside of bots and technical changes.
Perhaps you could point some interest in the direction of general content creation.
All the best with your witness journey, Kevin.
I'm so glad to see that you have finally made your move to become a witness.
I am solidly behind you and I wish you goodluck in all your endeavour.
Voted for you already😊
It’s about time you became a witness! Good luck bro! 😀👍😎
Thanks @rawdawg! Luck is definitely needed lol
Could not have said it any better @rawdawg!
One of the more interesting 'witness intro' reads in some time. Will be following with interest. ✌💛
I voted your witness now @kevinwong. My big congratulations to your new jump.
Hey @kevinwong all the best on your witness journey! I am so glad that you finally decided to do this! Thank you for all the you do behind the scenes for STEEM and the TM community! Yay! Another witness in sunny Malaysia! You got my vote!
How are you?
Thanks @khimgoh - appreciate it!
I wish you good luck with your Witness journey and I’m still new here but I’ll support you :)
Hi @kevinwong, I'm waiting to see your fully witness category and 01 hour ago you done it. I already voted your witness. I see kevinwong no.75 level in the my witness category. I think you start new journey of your second steemit life. Congrats and go ahead.
You got my vote!
Man, I think we just birthed our witnesses on the same day...
I launched last night.
Congrats.
I took some time off for the crypto winter for some introspection. What do I really want out of all this?
Conclusions:
I want stability with the ability to work on my passions in the crypto space. The roller coaster ride is fun, but I'm looking longer term.
I'm investing in property. Somewhere like, Austin, Singapore, Montana, or a coastal surf spot.
I consolidated my outrageous coin collection down to 3. Steem, BTC, and a platform. I decided I want to be invested in projects I can directly add value to.
I'm also advising one fitness related project bc it will keep me healthy so it fits with the lifestyle.
Then I launched a witness node to put my time and effort where my heart is.
Now my crypto time is consolidated. My life feels more simple. I'm down to grind without the worries of wen moon.
In reading your last few blogs, I felt some interesting synchronicities with my path.
PS. I also read the Alchemist twice last month, which gives nice perspective on the journey of our souls. It made me start hatching crazy plans like taking a cargo ship to steemfest this year. haha
Anyway, cheers to you and your merry Witnesshood.
Your mind and philosophy are a great addition.
Hey thanks @happymoneyman!
lol happened to most of us in the game last year i think.. yeah feels good to wind down to a couple few now. a lot of waiting, but the grind is the grind..
You got a 93.54% upvote from @upme thanks to @kevinwong! Send at least 3 SBD or 3 STEEM to get upvote for next round. Delegate STEEM POWER and start earning 100% daily payouts ( no commission ).
I've read your words in the past pertaining to misaligned incentives on Steemit, and I know you care deeply about growing the platform, and that such thinking will inform your witness, especially vis-a-vis future hard fork voting, so I just voted for you. Good luck. :)
Just voted, gladly, for you, Kevin 😀
Here’s to thinking differently, supporting underdogs, unpopular advice and good conversation. Onwards & Upwards ✌🏼
That sounds way too optimistic under current market conditions bro.. lol, thanks for the vote btw!
I’m an incurable optimist (aka Idealist)... and I believe in you ✌🏼
Voted for you, upvoted and resteemed!
You got my vote!
thanks @kevinwong for sharing this important information
You got a 37.05% upvote from @postpromoter courtesy of @kevinwong!

With the great things that you have done to the steem community, you surely got my support. Thank you for constantly building communities along with @donkeypong.
Voted you and with @steemph.cebu, our communal account.
FINALLY
Selamat bergabung as a witness! 👍
hello friend apology will be that you can help me I need your help will be that you can help me with 2 or 1 steem please I need it, thank you and apologize for the inconvenience
For what do you need it? @jose2002 ?
family problems I can not tell, but please only one or 2, I explain live in Venezuela that 2 months is like 6 months of work
Hey @kevinwong , i would like to hear from you what you think about platforms like Bitmex. How much of an problem are they for the entire crypto space? It seems like everyone is just shorting & longing since months and there is no real chance for other coins to make any moves as long as this platforms excist. Really would like to hear what u think about it.
family problems I can not tell, but please only one or 2, I explain live in Venezuela that 2 months is like 6 months of work
Good luck and Best wishes @kevinwong... Very well written post and I think we need witnesses like you.... Will follow your posts more often
Did you really put a trade mark on the term "Crypto Life"?
Anyways, Voted you as a witness! Good Luck!
Haha i put the trademark in the chain, it must be real! Thanks for your vote!
Hello, what an interesting experience you have shared with us in the Steem community. You're very versatile. I also want to study system or software, I am currently a Mechanical Engineer, and I am very interested in this world of steemit... Greetings from Venezuela!
Hey thanks. Check out the workings of the blockchain :) its fun
Hey, yeah! In fact, I'm pretty interested in the subject! You got some group in discord?
Oh sorry, no I don’t have a group. There’s some channels on steem.chat though :) not sure about discord
You've been a great person for all the community, I'd already voted for you, keep it up the good work!
I voted for you! :D Happy to support your efforts. I bought some more AGRS too.
Congratulations for this great step and to have become a witness, you have my vote of support, keep it that way and always good luck with every decision
@Kevinwong,
I applaud you on you move to become a witness. Reading over your witness introduction post really allowed me to get to know you and your intentions with and for steem.
"dev-to-dev communications about Steem-related technicalities" With a focus on Steem development and preparing for SMT and gathering knowledge and planning prior to deployment is a solid strategy as opposed to waiting for it to drop and then start working. I really like this idea.
I am working to become a developer and have what I would like to think is a great idea to launch the Dev community within and around blockchain to a new level using the Steem platform and developer community as the base. Lets just say school and development would change forever. If you would be interested in hearing more look me up. You have my vote of confidence and I wish you all the luck on your journey as a Witness.
Pax Vo Biscum
Really good questions. Lots to think about.
Good article, thank you for share it
thanks @phoneinf!
Dear @kevinwong,
You have my votes!!!
Posted using Partiko Android
just cool
Yeah, but Tau's development is worth waiting for. I like that you include Tau in this post. Goodluck then, in regards with your witness campaign. Definitely worth supporting!
Life hasn't been the same since getting to know Tau lol.. Good to know another supporter here! Thanks @themanualbot
I actually really enjoyed this platform, before I only heard from my friends that blockchain has many advantages that facilitate trading and digital assets in doing business, after I tried it I could no longer leave it in my life. this really helped me in doing business.
Good to know @rijalmahyud! Nice view by the way!
Hope you are a great witness server for Steem.
ye kya nangi-buchi ladki baitha di tumne samundar par
Thanks @mbj!
great photography with a beautiful writing
I'm really curious to see how things will work out with you running as witness?
As I know you already have lots of influencing friends on the blockchain. So I expect you have a good chance to end up high. Let's see
Nah i barely do any networking.. lol will see how it goes.
So lots of people just love you as you are, while you don't put any effort in 😀
That sounds great. Especially the financial part in terms of Steem rewards. You should teach all of us. That helps to improve the churn rates (I think it's called that)!
@kevinwong
Blockchain is an unknown world to many still.
But good work always pays off.
Keep going.
@kevinwong Awesome article and detailed information, thanks for share this, interesting to see the journey going forward. I wish you all the best for all your projects and Witness endeavour here and soon having a Whale of a time!
Thanks a lot @marcossman! Appreciate it.
Thank you for this gun fast fast. Because the decision you made is really good, hope your work will be successful. Try it one day.
More then happy to vote for you as witness @kevinwong , I have one spot left, and have always had you on my auto voter since I got it set up! I have also been on this roller coaster ride for 2 years and know where your coming from. Best of luck to you! You Have My Vote! Upped and resteemed to spread the word!I just set you up on my auto voter @momskitchen account as my main auto voter is full @karenmckersie👌👍✌😀☑
Good luck nice post
Right dear
I stumbled across a resteem on my feed about your post.
In the last two days I have dealt with the topics "complexity" and "quality" and read some scientific contributions. As a balance, I read those of philosophers, historians, systemists and people working on environmental issues.
From the respective perspective of these people and views, there are urgent and important topics that all want to be dealt with and observed.
When I focus on complexity theory and what mathematicians and computer scientists say, I read that ...
source: https://scholar.lib.vt.edu/ejournals/SPT/v4n1/pdf/MAINZER.PDF
You're talking about Avoiding Turing completeness and
I looked up the definitions, but I can't make sense of them. Can you explain a little more? I am a systemic consultant by profession and have been a supporter of the systemic view of life and interaction of systems.
Do you think that future human communities will no longer be able to cope with the tasks that await us according to the theory of complexity? If I understand it correctly, the conclusion is that we cannot predict the machine-controlled work, i.e. the communication from machine to man and machine to machine.
I had anxieties when reading and I'm afraid of this kind of technology. Do you have an opinion on that?
In any case, I read your article with interest. It's good to see that you give some of your personal thoughts on your decision.
It's quite a new thing so it's hard to find elsewhere, although the gist of it is actually the Semantic Web by Tim Berners-Lee, but of course, with some somewhat serendipitous twists enabled by a blockchain that stores the rules of the network.
Just avoiding turing-completeness at the metalanguage, in which an internet of languages can be supported with semantics preserved, including turing-complete ones. It's just that this class of language wouldn't be able to enjoy the benefits of decidability and all the other good stuff offered by using FO[PFP].
Btw, Tau is actually not an AI per se, at least not in the form we know in mainstream industries which are mostly essentially statistical-based AIs. Tau is purely logic-based and I have not found it being romanticised in popular novels and such, which is for me, quite a good sign. Will be waiting for the demo hitting by end of this year and see how it pans out. Try to go through the website and blogposts - you'll get more answered by the developer himself :)
Thanks for your feedback.
Though I have troubles to understand your used expressions. Which is either because I am not a native English speaker and/or used to a non technical language. Let's see what I can make out of going to the Tau side and the blog-posts.
Have a good Sunday, Greetings from Hamburg.
somewhat related (to understand what PSPACE is under finite complexity), interesting vid too :)
Hahahah.....here is my simple explanation i answered in musing.io (hopes it enriches this post and not confuse people even more)
https://steemit.com/musing-threads/@dj123/pk4uma4w5
P vs NP paradox is a paradox as stated only in the past (or future past), it was once a computer science problem needing a proof, but has now grown beyond.
in "Easy Words", we can say this:
P is what we call know problems we can solve (find answer) and if we have answer(s) we can easily verify (check that our answers are true)
and
NP are problems we can't easily solve (can't find answers), but ironically we know ways to easily verify (we can easily check if the answer are correct)
So the challenge here is that for problems that we know how to easily check the answer but don't yet know an easy way (in time and with finite resources) to find answer (NP), could we someday prove that it could also be easy to solve these answer? (P)
That by definition IS acceptable as a current (or past current) paradox.
Extra info:
Being a paradox does not mean something is infinitely unsolvable, it's just a paradox "for now".
SAT ( Boolean satisfiability problem) is the hardest know NP-complete scenario. SAT has became the NP goto test (in the constrain of time) to show that almost all (so far) know NP-complete problems can be expresses mechanically into SAT.
So solving SAT=P will prove that P=SAT=NP, there are in fact been a number of new theories now that have propose solutions to prove SAT=P, but it's outside the pure Computer Science Math, and has moved to Quantum Physics, or even new fields like Logical Physics, aka into the realm of Quantum computers, the future killer of many cryptographic keys, and possibly the demise of current Cryto-Currency (cryptography is currently the fastest growing use case using the unique nature of NP problems).
Some emerging P=SAT=NP solutions:
https://medium.com/the-physics-arxiv-blog/the-astounding-link-between-the-p-np-problem-and-the-quantum-nature-of-universe-7ef5eea6fd7a
http://recursed.blogspot.com/2012/05/yet-another-p-vs-np-proof.html
Answering Wrong Paradox Assumptions:
Now I saw another answer that I like to elaborate on, the Twin Paradox and the
Theseus Paradox. Both are or shall we say were paradoxes, but are no longer (or no longer complete paradoxes)
Twin Paradox (a math paradox - observation of fast moving object slowing down in time as observed by a twin moving away at very high speeds per Albert Einstein's formulas) - This one is actually solved by further proof of Special Relativity (in easy words - going very-very fast will slow time down for a person being observer relative to another at rest observing that person), so you could say time-dilation physics has solved this naive twin paradox.
Thesueus Paradox (a philosophical paradox of identically replacing all parts of a body/item would still defines that as the same person/item) - This one has actually partially been solved by Biology, believe it or not, every existing soft cell in a body of a person >10 years has been replaced, most if not all the soft cells have been duplicated a new even though the position or the mass of that person stayed somewhat static. By the very nature of long life organism changing cells, the biological definition is that if you change everything exactly the same in the cellular level at least (even thought the molecular level might have recycled some of the same atoms at different location), it is accepted as the being the same - hence paradox partially solved.
In simple terms - think of paradox like magic, or until it becomes knowledge or science that we still do not know till the future arrives with new answer, once we know them, it's no longer a paradox
I like your way of thinking. I often like to think outside the box though like schrodinger's cat for instance saying that there is a cat in a box but it is alive or dead? It is in theory both right up untill you open the box and then it is sealed in. Thinking outside the box could mean that if you figured out time travel you may go back in time to live the same moment but in that timeline the cat is acually alive in this time line and dead in another time line thus proving that not only time travel is possible but we are actually living in only one of uncountable timelines. and everything we do is the oposite on a diferent timeline.
Thank you @etherpunk for the courtesy & video.
I watched it one time and will watch it again. This guy talks really fast! :)
It's an interesting topic but I want to find out where it relates to the world I live in and how I can make connections.
Awesome video. Thanks for taking me to oatmeal school.
Upvoted your post and voted you as a witness. I really hope you can bring the best out of our platform. You seem like you genuinely care.
crypto is one of the biggest opportunities since the invention of the internet itseif....Great times to be around..............
I am upcoming you for your great article. I am also thinking to consider some of your ideas in my upcoming business opportunity.
I think blockchain will be our future. But, there are few problems With it like Security from hackers.
massive IT requirements.
<<For example: really knowing what's in the real world around us, from legal ownership to the things that I'm saying here in this post. Blockchains or any records of anything in life would rely on sensors (or oracles, human-beings, etc) to sense. But sensors ultimately require input, which is something that can be trusted 100% since we can just provide kind of signals, true or false, as input. So relationships and social networks still matter in the end even if we are to use the blockchain as a trust protocol for meta-information.>> -- BUT, yet the truth is cheaper. Cause it is easier to just let the mutual entropy between ... things, to reach its maximum. 'Faking' signals takes. Takes exponentially more than truth. Lie is like rowing against the flow of the entropic explosion which any system, incl. the universe is. Maybe this is the secret of the successful internal trust (enforcement) manufacturing which the PoW is. The processes within the network are sooooo reliably isolated from the general flow of the world.
ABILITY IN DISABILITY
no such thing as too late. happy to support your efforts... maybe we can move the convo forward really soon (your ideas on ROI for investors)
i think you are natural lover of beach and sea
Who if not you, Kevin? :-)
Congratulations on your decision.
I had to take away a vote from another witness in order to vote yours, but that's my way of showing appreciation for your contribution to the Steem community...
All the best for that new endeavor!
Hey thanks a lot for the vote and well wishes @surfermarly!
outstanding,man clicks on the above are just awesome.all the best and carry on
Amazing post. upvoted, resteemed and followed.
Met you two years ago bro. Our paths are obviously different as hell.
But, we here man. We here.
Very glad to know a legit dude among all the weirdos in this space.
Never doubted less info in your own witness thread. No hype, that's for sure.
Love ya man! With you all the way.
What? i thought we're the weirdos lol. Thanks dude <3
This is the second time I'm hearing about Tau. The first time being early this year and I think I promised myself to look into it. Well, this might just be a sign to get into something revolutionary with Tau. At least, for once, I will settle down and do something good.
I wish you good luck in your witness journey. Voted you, sir.
We need human, passionate, bright, challenging and active minds like Kevin, feeding the path of Steemit's Vision.
It's unquestionable the constant added value in the content and high-quality insights for the community in this last 2 years(it seems like 5 years to me hehe).
My best wishes and support, and thanks a lot for the inspiration and motivation to keep me writing on Steemit.
Thanks a lot @charlie777pt, it certainly feels like it's been forever. This year itself feels like 2 years lol. I guess we're just trying to make good content!
Agreed, my first year on Steemit feels like many moons and yes, humanity is as fundamental as oatmeal.
Hey @kevinwong all the best on your witness journey! I am so glad that you finally decided to do this! Thank you for all the you do behind the scenes for STEEM and the TM community! Yay! Another witness in sunny Malaysia! You got my vote!e
i agree with you that blockchain is still in its baby stage and i am sure it will capture the world soon , but again it comes with its own chanllenges.Most of the people do not beleive in this technology.They are still happy with their old ways, lets wait and watch , the game with change and all crypto lovers will be winners.
I approved @kevinwong as witness. I resteemed this article for #japanese community.
Thank you @yasu24!
Ok I voted for you for witness
This is a well written, comprehensive, and insightful post. Thanks for taking the time to compile your thoughts.
Very nice,,, You are very valuable to the community !! I love reading it !!!
I just voted for your witness @kevinwong after I saw your name in the list. I believe that you are one of those individuals that have something to offer for the betterment of the steem technicals and its community.
There is no such thing as too late. happy to support your efforts... maybe we can move the convo forward really soon

are you doing a ritual?
very nice article....your second point at the beginning is something new crypto users are going to struggle with.
Very detailed article, great work @kevinwong!
just checked my vote for witness and you moved up a lot great going keep up the good work all the best :D
welcome to the world of witnessing
Nice read!
Congrats! Will vote for your witness! ❤️
thanks @karensuestudios! <3 am i doing this right? haha
Hehe finally got to it yesterday and added you!! You are doing great already! ❤️❤️ Best of luck!
I think the Blockchain technology is not a simple platform. Everyone can't understand this technology Initially. After a large experince lost of people know about this technology deeply.
I really don't quite follow your explanations here...but it seems interesting. Make it vivid in your subsequent post for novice like me, who might be interested in making money from crypto. Thanks
sure @asaha! i'll try to, it'll take a bit of time!
Alright then, thank you!
Good Luck, it's good to see diverse people are willing to become a witness, we need more people as witness who thinks differently.
Don't worry sir @kevinwong, i will vote you as a witness,
Im really glad that you are now on a witness category
Really enjoyed your post. I think you're capturing the state of things in a sober and knowledgable way. Thanks again...I'll be re-reading this.
Glad it is so, i will talk about these things in the next posts :)
Interesting article i'm your witness kevinwong ! o.Ob
thanks for motivation @kevinwong
I was actually auditing my witness votes and seen you on there. Voted before I even saw this. I remember your posting about self-voting.
From what I have observed, you are a good community dude so you got my vote. Best of luck to you.
Excellent reach to the concept and well explained. Liked your way to do it. Great work @kevinwong
Very good information, thanks for sharing.
all the best on your witness journey!
Awesome post. Very Great introduction. Happy to see the.. :)
Great post dear friend
Congratulations @kevinwong!
Your post was mentioned in the Steemit Hit Parade in the following categories:
Was waiting for your witness setup and finally, you did it! Witness voted.
thanks @legendchew! i hope i can keep a record of 0 missed blocks, but it'll surely not be so one day.. lol
Please maintain the 0 missed blocks record forever. I actually hate when it delay and get error especially 504 gateway issue. I believe you can do it well since you are pioneer in Steemit. Keep it up! 😁
@kevinwong - shameless as I am I will rape the reward pool by upvoting my own comment with my massive SP to confirm i am voting for your witness. A MUST for 3 reasons: 1 - You DJ, 2 - You been one of the first 5 on Steemit to engage with me, 3 - You take care of the community. Will vote tomorrow!
hahahah....i like your style @uwelang <3, when you run for witness I will do the same for you :D
This is the beginning! Super!
nice
R
thanks @uwelang lol funny as ever *off to go engage more for more votes*
:D Thank you for your post and for all you do here on Steem!
@uwelang, If you ever visit KL, Malaysia, you should definitely meet up with Kevin. He is one awesome cool guy who willingly support the community and doesn't want to be in the spotlight area. As one of Team Malaysia member, I am super grateful we have Kevin here. I have met him a couple of times, but I didn't dare to talk to him because he is THE Kevin Wong. But deep down inside, I am really thankful. And totally support him as witness. Voted! And confirm voted!

good luck and best wishes from me @kevinwong
post!
I have been telling all my retail friends about SMT's.
Voted for you as a witness. I have faith in you always doing the right thing.
Hey thanks!!
No worries Kevin.
I know you will do a great job as a witness.
Do you want to go to Anarchapulco 2019 ? if so, you can stay at my place and hangout for as long as you want.
@modprobe let me stay at his Mansion last year. He worked on Steemit, Bitshares and EOS.
You will like him, great guy.
@kevinwong Can I do an interview like this?
@kevinwong excellent work for the community well done.
You got my vote! I always valued your attitude as a free thinker. Steem needs more people like you. I wish you much success as a witness!
Thanks for the vote and encouragement @atmosblack!
I like Your style in writing.
Great post.!
@kevinwong
My vote goes to you as you have shared best of your knowledge your post is greatly appreciated by me as most of people wants to know about these points as I.. And you help us alot
Nice approach of girl, front of sea
Voted for you.
Carry on! 😄
You certainly have my vote! I am actually @mother2chicks🐓 this is my 2nd account where I mostly resteem others interesting posts. You’d be a great witness😉
@kevinwong your blogs are so amazing
you are one of my inspiration on steemit
Thanks , for your amazing contribution on this community
It is awesome seeing you as a witness @kevinwong, why didn't you become one earlier?
All rewards from this comment will go to charity
Because Steem seems to be working..
It is, I actually wonder what will happen when Bithumb fixes the wallet (currently Steem is worth 3.84$ in Bithumb with a +80% of the volume).
All rewards from this comment will go to charity
Thank you for sharing this with us, I will definitely vote for you as a witness and I wish you the best of luck

Without question, you've got my vote.
While you’ve framed this as a potential drawback, I see it as a strength.
Sometimes limitations serve well to refine focus where it can be most effective.
Any entrepreneurs serious about bridging into blockchain realms would greatly benefit from your “opinionated” perspective, as there’s already enough B.S. hype. Yes, there might be a limitation of opportunities - but it’s one that will serve you well to filter out those who wouldn’t place proper value on the expertise you’ve invested in developing. Quality over quantity.
The space doesn’t need more cheerleaders on the hypetrain. The constructive criticisms you bring are priceless, for they address very significant issues that others may be ignoring due to over-enthusiasm and biases of their own which fail to factor in key systematic weakness of other projects. You’ve made a commitment to upholding an integrity and quality in what you offer - that is a foundational key to success which shall serve all you do business with extraordinarily well.
Should there be opportunities that pass because someone wanted to develop on other platforms they thought would suit their needs better, oh well. There are certainly plenty of other advisors who may assist them. Meanwhile, your commitment to focusing in on Steem and Tau provides a huge deal of strength for any clients/partners who do align and shall enable you to serve them to a degree of excellence that would not be possible otherwise - while also serving Steem & Tau.
Ethereum (and others) already have thousands of others in its service. Your insight, intellect, and skillsets can likely be far better leveraged and have a much greater impact focused towards Steem & Tau, two projects with outstanding potential that need your service much more than those on the hypetrain loop. While the focus might limit your opportunities, it’s also likely to ensure those you do create are of a higher calibre - and you are likely to create outstanding opportunities for others in the process that could not come had your focus been on maximizing the quantity of your own.
As for being “opinionated…” there are very valid reasons for the opinions you present. Should anyone not respect and value them, they’re probably not people you’d want to work with anyways.
Absolutely.
May take a while to build the bridges, though there’s great value in the network & culture that have been growing here. Certainly, there’ll be much to tend to in both the conceptual and technical designs of how to integrate, though what’s been developing via Steemit could certainly be a huge leverage point for Tau, and what capabilities Tau could enable for Steemit’s communities may create massive opportunities for leveraging the value collaboratively generated via Steemit.
Still so early on in the game, yet fascinating possibilities ahead… 🙏
I guess I got a bit FOMOed by letting go of some big projects, but just can't bring myself to recommend something I can't anymore, which seems to be 99% of whatever's out there now. It's somewhat risky and definitely quite a bet to place it on just a couple of horses. Eggs in a few baskets vs eggs in many many baskets situation.
If you noticed ever since we joined Steem back then, we've seen a lot of energy and enthusiasm, ideas floating around and all. Then it slowly fades off like the rest of the crypto market. I think connecting the dots is something decentralized networks are still pretty bad at. It's not centralised like iOS / Android appstores or Facebook communities where people can find what they want to use easily and safely. But at least Steem has been able to do it fairly better than the rest of the market. I think Tau is when "connecting the dots" is taken to the next level in bringing the thinkers and doers.
Thanks a lot for the pick-up by the way :) - is that the right word? lol
Perhaps. Though then again, consider it as a relationship. Yeah, some people might be able to juggle multiple girlfriends and that can work for everyone involved. But generally, you'll probably be able to build alot more deeper, intimate relationship with one person, focusing on growing and nurturing with them, versus trying to sleep with every hot chick on the block. (Or raising one or two kids properly, rather than adopt a whole village of orphans). [Weird metaphors, coming out at 1am after a beer. lol.]
Perhaps. But then again, being able to connect the dots in regards to complex systems is somewhat of a rare skill. Most education systems train people well in specialization - focusing in on isolated systems, rather than exploring and understanding the interconnections between them. i.e. health. What are the interconnections between biology, chemistry, physics of brainwaves, genetics, psychology, "spirituality," and how all that internal stuff relates to the external of relationship dynamics, cultural programming & memetic trends, societal crises & evolutions, economics, etc, etc...? Not too many people could answer that question. We might have some great specialists that are well-versed in sanctioned components of those systems - but when it comes to the skill of connecting the dots to domains of knowledge outside of their experience... 🤯
And bear in mind: we're still in the primitive days of blockchain. (As has been compared to the Netscape era of the internet). Being right at the beginning, this is unchartered territory. Not all can be expected to see what creative possibilities ahead - such may be more a somewhat shamanistic task for those whose learning and experience has reached across & down a breadth and depth of dimensions enabling them to understand the dynamics of complex systems - from the technical to societal, cultural, economic, and beyond. "Connecting the dots" is a rather rare skill exclusive to the few visionaries who can see the bigger picture of future potentials.
And even then, there's a gap to be bridged, as the visionaries aren't always the ones with the technical capabilities to get into effective action into turning those possibilities into realities. (For example, I can see the potentials - but am rather fucking clueless on how to really manage the communication of those visions and organize competent entrepreneurial teams in such a way that they could be brought to life, perhaps just getting a sneak preview and doing my best to share pieces of the puzzle, in hopes some readers might take parts and do something with them.)
I agree that Tau could be a massive game-changer in those regards, though - where contributions to discussions like these could be connected into others thinking & working in the same direction, leveraging off eachothers' input and having the AI element fill in the gaps and facilitate certain executions of ideas. I also sometimes wonder if I'm one of the handful of crazies who may be too far ahead of the times, the full visions not to be realized under after we're gone. lol.
Wouldn't be a pick-up, in terms of a car ride, flirtation/date, or upper-drug-buzz, though I know what you're referring to, perhaps as a morale-boost or simple encouragement... :-)
Very interesting post, i upvoted. If i may ask, do you think cryptocurrency are overvalued at this moment? What are interesting projects worth investing into?
Great post. Will be following your journey from here and consider voting for you as witness. Keep it up!
I will most certainly vote you as a witness @kevingwong for I know you will never go wrong
Dante is here No Fear
Cheers
Interesting take on the blockchain. The hype is all over, and everyone is rushing to embrace the blockchain as the cure for all the ills in modern computing.
Best of luck on your journey!

Wow! I just want to be a node and mine a bit
We wish you all the best as a witness @kevinwong, after 2 years on Steem you surely have the experience.
Hey Kev,
I don't know if you're currently top witness material, but you surely have the potential to get there. I'll always remember how you took my recommendations for complete strangers I was curating before I even knew that Curie existe, and how you were the first whale who came by to upvote an unknown startup community like @comedyopenmic so generously and putting your faith in us experimenting with a volunteer base community with rotational leadership of international jokers trying to disrupt the blockchain with a little humor.
I've always seen your devotion the the little peeps....the heart beat of Steem, aka the minnows, I've seen your passion to curate and bring reward to the talented, but most of all, your joy of giving of yourself to others, in art, music, philosophy, positive inspiration, and even with your mouth covering bandanna mystique 😁.....that kind of sharing, that's your passion.
I'm honored to give you my witness vote, I've been asked by a fellow COMer for my witness proxy, nevertheless in the interest of supporting big hearted witness who I believe will help take us to a new generation here on Steem, I will ask him to support you, I'm hopeful he will, either way, you will surely have my vote sooner than later.
Welcome to the witness club, I don't know what you have planned as you climb the ranks, but I'm confident it will be exciting and will be looking forward to seeing your creative ways to disrupt the blockchain. Do us all a favor and raise the bar for all witnesses. Also when you do come up with something cool, let us know if we can help!
Will get the word out to the the community of @comedyopenmic, we got your back!
Steem On!

Drop by discord, let me introduce you to everyone who haven't yet had the opportunity to get to know you <3
COM Discord: https://discord.gg/6BHYqVB
There's my vote, @kevinwong. Thanks for everything you've done for COM and for Steemit in general.
Many yap. Few act. Kevinwong doesn't talk much but he does a whole freaking lot. Add to the mindset of never overselling or overpromising aka shilling. It's called honesty and that is more scarce than "good coins" in this cryptosphere filled with greedy b*rstards.
Give him the votes people!
You also have a supporter here :) ! I like your honest and straight to the point way of putting things @kevinwong and while I don't understand much (or about nothing) on tech and programming specifics I can agree on how we need to build communities that create points of interest for new and potential users. As a musician I've been finding a great joy networking around here and building new relationships , also it has allowed me to have some sort of revenue for my own art , also helping others is a possibility for me here , even as a minnow account I've been able to push and support initiatives that I like . After being kidnapped and blackmailed ....ahem....invited by @diebitch and @dj123 to the COM family I've come to see one of the hardest working communities around here and am also grateful for your support over there :) ! Cheers!
invited
spellonazi
I still remember how in my first weeks here, I'd always come to your posts for some insight, humor and of course, upvotes. lol Also I've seen how you're always supporting the little guy, educating, and inspiring steemians in general to let loose every once in a while so, of course you have my vote.
P.S I still listen to "the girl from ipanema" from time to time so cheers for that too.
Steemon!
I also join the wave of support. I trust Dj's eye. We wish the best for the platform and we will support any initiative that ensures the good of it.
This is awesome, He's not much of a talker but I always know he's in the background, lurking and searching for quality to curate. Thanx for the smiles,
the nudesthe upvotes and supporting comedyopenmic community.happy to plonk a vote down on a Wong. I have noticed your name often and always in support. Hope you crash into that top 20 and shake shit up my man!!
Kevin had my vote at Running. All the best in this journey @kevinwong. Thanks a lot for your effort in helping bring up Steem and Steemers.
Keep going, we gotcho back~
PS: Dope avy.
@kevinwong has my vote as well!
Kevin easily got my vote. Good luck.
Eh that's too much good words lol. really I don't do much at all, just autovote all day long here most of the time now. Got no plans to climb other than what I've already offered on the table here on this post. Up the community dedice and share it out if they like it. Just want write stuff here and keep building SP.
ah you're too modest, you probably come from a culture who exemplify humility (ironically it's often not attain by most in such a culture).......your generosity, optimism for the future, and belief there is still space for altruism in humanity brings balance to our current world of so many who are over-focus on just resources, monetary value, and being self-centrict
you don't know yet, but this is just a first step for you into another journey.....you're an elected official of Steem now, be it by popularity, by good vibes, by old-school big fishes, or by calling....it doesn't matter. What matters is that you can start shaping the direction of where you want Steem to steer as we journey together.
Come say hello in COM Discord.....we need leaders like you to drop by even if it's just to visit our rabbit hole, it will greatly encourages the peeps!
Hey @kevinwong, 加油 (jia you)!

Ditto that from me. I have kept up with this guy and he seems perfect as a Witness. Look forward to that :)
Hi Kevin,
When I think of Steemit you are one of the first names that come to mind. I'm on my way over to support you as a witness.
加油 (jia you)!
Or as we say in Korea,
힘내세요!!
You rock!!
Hey thanks for the support! I really appreciate it. Will try to write more content frequently.
Hey @kevinwong! You inspired me to keep steeming way back when, and you gave me one of my first "heavier" upvotes. It felt good seeing someone with your rep and SP give me those words of encouragement! I believe you will make a great witness, and I thank you for all the support you give throughout the steemit community! You got my vote for sure!
EDIT
So after about 10 attempts to cast the witness vote and steemit not showing me any indication, I realized the added/removed spam via steemworld. Sorry for the vote spam if you noticed it :P
Hey thanks! I don't think I noticed btw :)
@kevinwong Best of luck :)
Oh my! Congratssssss!!!!Another big step for you on this fun and crazy steem world! I did vote as soon as I found out! You're prolly one of the funniest (most of the time #deep) witness on the blockchain!! LOLOL and to be honest, this post tl:dr but I get the concept! Though will give it more time when I get a chance so I truely understand! congrats again!
hehe..... a true KW fan!
Hey thanks @waybeyondpadthai, appreciate it. Btw i'm not funny at all, I have a textbook on how to be funny everytime i go online lol
hahah.....so tomyam!
Reversed Kiss? Taking it back? Kind of funny.
this is the same look of an antifa.
You have my vote! Good luck.
If you have time, I would like you to see my post here
Will cast my vote after leaving this comment. I came here because of @dj123's advice, he does that more often put me (or someone else) in the right (witness) direction.. that's much appreciated though, because although I interact with a lot of Steemit members, and know quite a few names by now, I never have interacted with you during my steemit career. This would probably mean that I would never gave you my witness vote if he didn't do this... But I read your post, and I trust on dj's opinion (read his comment too) you seem to do a lot for the community, which I do appreciate a lot.. Plus two communities you support are close to my heart: curie and comedyopenmic..
So here you have my vote, and I'm looking forward to all the things you'll be doing for the community..
Have a good sunday :)
Thanks @anouk.nox. Can someone get @dj123 to start posting his/her own posts already?? lol
Welcome! Lol, maybe we should all make a collective post from the members @dj123 is commenting on or for :) lol you can send your entry for that post to my discord if you want to participate :)

Very nice, long read.
@kevinwong : j'ai voté pour toi en tant que Witness. Bonne chance pour la suite.
I voted for you as a Witness. Good luck for the future.
I especially like this part, I feel the same:
Perfect
i just loving this community
Excellent post sir I upvoted and resteemed this post
Hello , i am working on steemit Platform, now with reputation of 36, looking to grow , if there is any strategy which i can follow and make my income $500 per month, kindly guide, also if there is some genuine online work, i am open for the same.
Embracing the Crypto Life™.
So my buddy's pat in the back made me think that I should now just continue to pursue my interests 100% in this space, wherever it takes me. So what's this Crypto Life™ about? It's just a clickbait and it really just means me being invested in my investments. That's how it all becomes currency I guess. I think it's a powerful idea.
I lolled, great job. Have a vote™.
I had a kind of dialogue with a client a while ago, but centred on bots, techs, cryptos, blockshains and other wizardry innovations doting the socialsphere of late!
Our conclusions in all these were :
2)They would so modify human existence to the extent of human regrets in the long run!
Nevertheless, the article by @ kevinwong is quite brevealing and should be appreciated by ALL .
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORT IN AVAILING US THE OPPORTUNITY

hello,
I notice your profile and i am with you and i support you
I had never heard of Tau before, but I think you're right about being on the mark re: language integration. Steemit was my first introduction to any kind of crypto and I've only been on Steemit for just on 6 months now, so still on a massive learning curve, will have a look into tau though, plus i like the name :P haha
Peace.
Thats the only way to be successful.
i like your articls! it's useful
Good luck! steemit needs some more good witnesses! :)

Man, you really shouldn't waited for so long to run for witness. Casted my vote happily. And great to know you are one of the earliest adopters of BTC back in 2009. Great write-up once again!
@kevinwong You have my support buddy, I remember your name since my very own first post. You are truly will become a very good witness
You got it buddy! Good luck! 😎👍
Congrats, you made the #steemitminute for today!

Nice piece here, would have my vote
Been reading and learning as much as I can and this is the first truly engaging post that I can identify with. Great reading and I'm looking forward to going through more of your work as I figure things out myself.
Just voted for Witness, Good Times.
Nice!
Hope You become witness, im new, will try to support You.
Way to go @kevinwong! I came here on @dj123's recommendation :)
I gave @abh12345 my proxy some time ago, and was going to call him over here, but I see he's already commented and voted for you as "our" witness! :)
@kevinwong It is always good to establish contacts with people trained and responsible for disseminating high level information, where we can all become blues, and establish ourselves as great exemplary users of this magnificent platform, in this case I follow their advice and teachings and I am proud of being able to comment here in this great blog where the great make the great, thank you very much and continue to grow to support all the people who want to reach their level and to cross borders that if, without losing humility, thank you and will continue to be and faithful follower and reader of their publications. @raybull
Excellent Post
@kevinwong my friend, you know I enjoy our regular banter, and I'm very happy to back your campaign to become a top 20 witness here on Steemit. In the end, I'm glad to have someone who cares running to become a witness and I'd be happy to give you my vote.
The only condition I have is that once you break into the top 20, no posts on self-fellation. Other than that, I'm all good.
You share powerful information in about of crypto currency . Thanks for your valuable information..
Thanks a lot, this is very informative. There are humans in this platform pretending to provide information and click on-baiting customers. But this put up honestly packs a punch with all this information. well played sir.
Nice photos. Hope u become a witness soon. Great posts.

nice post
I can't let go steemit because of posts like yours! Go for witness with my support!
TAU estas la nova, nuntempa universala lingvo kiel estis iam Esperanto?
Thank you!
My esperanto is not good, but yes, I think so. Check out their website under Tau's main features:- http://www.idni.org/
Thanks @kevinwong; I definitely will dive deeper into that subject. Looks already promising.

You have my vote and I am very enthusiastic about your witness. Over the months (years?) that I've known you, I've come to understand there is nobody better in terms of understanding this community. And you have a great passion for making a better world through the blockchain. I encourage everyone to vote for @kevinwong.
Thanks @donkeypong for your support as always!
@kevinwong omg your blog is sick! just love to walk trough all the posts
Witness vote allocated. A true Streemian mentor who I first had the privilege of hearing off through the @curie project when I curated for them.
Hey thanks a lot @zest!
will you guys support me in my hard phases? :( vote and comment please please please
Good luck! Upvote!!
I thought this was a post about crypts that were decorated all cool and shit like that show that shows off celebrity homes. FYI i'm going to be wallpapering my crypt and putting in parquet flooring. I know it's totally 70's but I think it will make people feel more at home.
LOL sorry to disappoint! Hopefully I'd get into what you're talking about once i get my life back returning from the rabbit hole hahah
You've got my vote! I'm brand new to steemit and I like your writing style--along with the content.
Hey thanks, and welcome to steem by the way!
Saludos desde Venezuela, ¡Muy buenas tus fotos!.
you can definitely count on my vote
Inspiring, have my vote!
This article was written so well and was a pleasure to read. Thank you!
Good way
While I start to do some research and try to wrap my head around what a witness actually is... I am starting to buy into everything everyone is saying about Tau on here. I still think I need to go back and try understand the fundamentals of blockchain before I start seriously getting into investing and understand exactly what the platform would provide for the world. In saying this though, I'd still like to know how I would do so and it seems like I cant buy any of the Agoras tokens anywhere? Where have they gone?
try bitshares, there are some there
Nothing much to say just that I always been your supporter from the start @kevinwong Thanks
You have my votes. no questions asked.
Support you to be a witness
This is where I’ve seen ConsenSys as offering an immensely valuable service to the Ethereum ecosystem, for one example.
Might be interesting to see something be birthed and grow based on a similar modeling catering to Tau and other blockchain ecosystems in due time, as Lublin really seems to have done an excellent job developing the organization to support not only a thriving network of dapp development, but setting a fine example of how to bridge those innovations into existing realms of industry, enterprise, and governments...
I wish you luck and hope you will be a great witness.
Thank you very much!
lovely pix

Te recuerdo que para sin importar lo que pase, perseverancia y tenacidad es la clave para tu proposito.

Saludos.
Weekend is about to get damm hot :D
Epic!... @kevinwong .... Perfect way to close out my night. Thanks for your solid read. As busy in life as I find myself, I enjoy this here social media platform of sorts as the one I enjoy and look forward to coming to visit. Especially when I get a heavy flow of gratitude for how things are playing out in my life. It’s pretty ironic in a multi faceted way that over the past couple years of me being a part of the Steemit Community I have come to find myself visiting this pocket of the web when I have the urge to reciprocate back to other solid folks whom I feel are like-minded. Tired of another long days work I realize unfortunately if I don’t cut myself off to a slim select number of intriguing ‘Posts’, I will find myself catching daylight as I can easily lose myself in all of the fine crafted material that has emerged here over the past couple years.
I love that I get to close my night on a perfect addition created by you that pretty much touched on what I do when I carve out whatever remaining time my eyes allow for me before I’m forced to abandon ship due to
unchallengeable wheights hung from my eye lids.
Times like this, as tired as I am, yet intrigued while filled with gratitude for life, I find myself just enjoying upvoting solid material and just simply satisfied giving from my bank, which is not too grand these days unfortunately. If I could I would throw a more large amount your way. I’m just afraid if I have another night of gratitude in the near future I wouldn’t be able to pass the ‘Goods’ to others as Id like. Hopefully the tides will turn where i soon may be able to do so.
For now, thanks from the good read and I appreciate the content and angle in which I feel you come from and aim for! Keep the vibe Alive!
nice blockchain promotion

It is great, witness.

Hi @kevingwong, I am so glad of your decision. As I already told you, you were one of the reason that made me sign in on Steemit, so you have my vote. I really hope to have a chat someday, somehow.

Hmm i like that suggestion, maybe a new post, shortened.
You have my witness vote @kevinwong. 👍
Thanks @future24, highly appreciate it man!
Mine too!
Hi, Kevin,
I just learned today that you've thrown your hat into the ring as a witness.
Based on your interactiveness with me in the past, and your obvious engagement with the platform that I've observed over the years, I have just now allocated one of my witness votes to you.
I wish you the best in that role, and expect that I will see more good things here on Steemit because of your involvement now as a witness.
😄😇😄
