"why should i buy blurt & powerup?"
I don't have a good answer for you, sorry. If I had not done that when I started here (April and May), I would have enough today to buy 25 million BLURT, which would make me the person with the most tokens on the blockchain. But I bought right away, so I could power up, and reward my commenters. It turned out to be a terrible mistake. Ever since, BLURT has fallen in price, sometimes by a little, and sometimes by a lot (like -75% in a single week). Maybe at some point, that will turn around. If there's a crypto bull market, perhaps Blurt will ride that to success? We can only hope. But another option is the losses just keep coming. It seems the insiders have a way to print (create out of thin air) more tokens, as needed, to pay themselves to cover hosting costs and their own salary. They always win no matter what, even if that means the investors get destroyed. I don't know if that will ever end. When we get a bull market, it's possible they could just absorb the gains for themselves, leaving the price stagnant (or dropping). So please, do your own research into this before you get financially involved. It is not an organic token that merely rides on supply and demand forces, unfortunately.
"at the bottom of the post I see that there is some kind of advertisement, but I ask where will the advertising money go?"
If you mean this, "Posted from https://blurtlatam.intinte.org", it is advertising added by the front end I am using, called BlurtLatAm (it stands for Blurt Latin America, but it is not owned by Latin American people anymore). It appears on every post and comment I make, and I don't like it. I am looking for a different front end to use, but I don't like blurt.blog either, because it is not as censorship-resistant as I would like, and I don't agree with the actions of its owners.
Thanks for your comment :))
This I mean,, does this just show up for me?
I've never seen that advertisement. I don't know who put it on your screen, but my instinct is to ignore it. Maybe try adding "AdBlock" to your browser?
i have to find out & thanks your response
This is advert on the frontend: blurt.blog... The advertisment brings in Blurt core a few quid per month... Nothing worth mentioning... No one getting rich....
Thanks, but some pound it would be useful to burn tokens or whatever it
He refers to this advertising, where does the money from this advertising go? They could use that money to add Blurt to an exchange.
I believe you meant to direct your comment to @outofthematrix? And I think he already said that those ads don't generate enough income to do anything with. But that begs the question, if the ads don't generate income, why bother every user with them, all over the platform? It also looks bad to outsiders who are considering joining. If there's no advantage, maybe we should just get rid of it.
No mate, you slipped a comma there... You might have 2.4 million tokens, but NEVER 24 million.
ctime owns 14 million and his wallet has a value of 45 thousand bucks... At 24 million it would be around 70 thousand! You never had 70K USD !?!?
PS: I curated your wifes post with curationcoconut... I wanted to comment my usual message and I saw she has block the account curationcoconut... Is there a reason for this? I mean the account gives her a nice curation reward and gets blocked for doing so?
Hmmm sounds like you misunderstood me.
"I was holding 17,000+ HIVE at the very top (about $60000 USD), but did not yet have a mechanism to trade/sell it, and held on through the collapse... I now have 534,300 BLURT (worth 1335 USD). But just for fun (or is it torture), what would my holdings be if I had held my HIVE earnings in a fiat currency like USD (or a stablecoin) until today, when BLURT is so much cheaper? Turns out, I could buy over 24 million BLURT with that amount, if I had only waited."

If I had held on to my HIVE earnings ($60k) from the top until the time of that post, I could have bought almost 25 million BLURT, check the math yourself. It's just a hypothetical scenario, a "what if".
"she has block the account curationcoconut"
I can ask her when she's up in the morning, or you can. But I did not even know we could block accounts. I personally use the mute feature all the time, especially on pointless "I voted on this post" accounts and bots, but that does not block anything.
Ok, bro I understand... but there is a German saying:
Hätte, hätte, Fahrradkette. 😜
It means as much as not to chase the missed opportunities of the past, but to look forward in positivity...🍀🤙
Nice saying :)
This is funny... my computer translated that phrase literally to "would have, would have, bicycle chain" LOL
I think it's useful to understand the past, or we are doomed to repeat its mistakes. This allows us to be optimistic about making better decisions in the future.
Hehe, yepp, the bicycle chain is used because in German hätte rhymes with Kette... 😜
That's right, learning is the only thing the past is good for 👍
