My mother worked in donor relations for a private school. Her job was to find rich parents in the school and ask them to donate money. If they did she would write thank you notes and/or get the head of school to write thank you notes. She was very successful. There are awards for public donor relations professionals that are named after her.
I started on Steem back in 2016. I started operating a witness several months later. SO, I've been doing this nearly a decade. I would like to share a little wisdom of running a validator/witness/HE-Witness and hopefully this helps the new people both on Hive, but more specifically towards those folks starting their journey as a Splinterlands Validator.
So, financially accounting for crypto is hard. Getting ready for taxes isn't easy. One problem is figuring out how to interpret the IRS guidelines can be tricky, but more fundamental than that is gathering all the transactions you need is hard in part because real degens use lots of tools.
Alright, it's been a minute since I've done any kind of politicin'. I'm inviting and asking you to vote for my Splinterlands validator node. Why Vote for Aggroed?My skillset helps me build community, grow ecosystems, facilitate trade, and when the time is right add an enormous amount of fomo to fuel growth. There's no one better on Hive to attract people to projects than me and as we're already in the beginning stages of an altcoin season
I've had my eyes on bitcoin for a while. Sentiment is awful on crypto twitter. So many people burned out of pump.fun and sol. NFT twitter has been obliterated. Countries are now rug pulling memecoins. I think there will be a rotation back to utility tokens and all the "shitcoins from 2017."
So, recently an account by the name of shaggroed created an account, leased RC, leased some servers from privex and decided to spam 300,000 market order transactions in the span of 35 minutes.By doing this the amount of time to process a block went from under three seconds to over a minute each and the witnesses quickly fell behind on blocks.
