Cryptowriter - EOS Popcorn Ep. No Idea
Welcome back to another jaw-dropping episode of EOS “mudda-fuggin” Popcorn, a show starring the many fascinating characters of the EOS community. A show that might make you laugh, or make you cry, or might even make you shart. An exemplary contribution to the world of crypto journalism held to the highest of Cryptowriter standards. EOS Popcorn is kind of like 60 Minutes on good crack laced with fentanyl. If this is your first time tuning in, buckle up and prepare to be amused. Over the last year, there had been sporadic calls for EOS Popcorn, but it wasn’t until our dear friend and Voice CEO @salafel made the ultimate gaff……that I got a bit of an itch to make a return. You see, I’m a man of the people.@seanwriterio @Salafel @matthew_borish @tequilaeos @B1 @EOSpopcorn @RUDEMUDCRAB @rektkid_ @Douglas_Horn Bring on the PopCorn... the #EOSDRAMA Must be Documented! Here’s another @PomeloGrants proposal I intend to support. Rumour has it they might bring back #eos 🍿. Check it out:
@RUDEMUDCRAB @EOSpopcorn @cryptowriter_
pomelo.io/grants/cryptow… It definitely didn’t hurt that some former stars were ready to rejoin the party.@seanwriterio @Salafel @matthew_borish @tequilaeos @B1 @EOSpopcorn @RUDEMUDCRAB @rektkid_ @Douglas_Horn Fred likes his popcorn with extra butter.@seanwriterio @Salafel @matthew_borish @tequilaeos @B1 @EOSpopcorn @RUDEMUDCRAB @rektkid_ @Douglas_Horn i might have to join in for old times sake I found myself sitting there, emersed in the nostalgia of:
My heart yearned for the many faces of Rami.I started coming to the realization that Popcorn had actually touched the lives of many people within the EOS community. It helped them feel desired. It helped them feel a sense of community. It helped them understand their emotions and release their inner demons. EOS popcorn is therapy. ACT 2When rumors first began swirling surrounding the halting of B1’s vested tokens, former child actor, billionaire entrepreneur, politician, and best buddy of B1 CEO Brendan Bloomer, Brock Pierce swooped down in what was perceived by many as a reactionary attempt to “help” the EOS community.Too little, too late. After over a month of discussions, the EOS community had already reached a consensus that B1 had failed to amply deliver and urged the ENF and BPs to shut off the faucet to B1’s vested tokens and a deadline was set.While the clock was ticking, BPs signed a proposed multisig to remove the vesting of B1’s tokens.TickTockTickTen years of development for EOSIO.
Without that, the most basic premise of the ICO is unfulfilled.
Give us the IP. Nothing less will do.
Better pick up the phone, only one day left.
13/15 https://t.co/bCFVFN7DRw B1 @B1 Today we are pleased to announce our intentions to offer EOS token grants to #ENF, @PomeloGrants, and #EdenOS. https://t.co/npPyoITWkmTockI’m working with Yves and the ENF on a mutually beneficial proposal for B1 and Bullish’s consideration that would allow the ENF and the EOS community to take a leadership role in the future of EOSIO’s development and intellectual property. @EosNFoundation (wink, wink)@brockpierce @EosNFoundation Congrats on Helios Brock! We’re always keen to explore creative ideas that can maximize ecosystem growth. Brendan and Brock had been in cahoots for quite some time.Interesting article here which goes into some detail on the early relationship between @BrendanBlumer and @brockpierce
It goes back much further than B1.
You really have to question Brock's intentions given this context.
mixergy.com/interviews/bre… B1 failed to deliver what was required by the deadline and the contract was executed.Through a super majority consensus, the EOS network has taken its future in its own hands. This begins a new era for #EOS and highlights the power of the blockchain to enable a community to stand up against corporate interests that don’t align with theirs. The Block @TheBlock__ EOS community halts payments worth $250 million in EOS to https://t.co/ldAr2vmNm0 and Brock Pierce (via @timccopeland) https://t.co/5D0ZtEk0Dh https://t.co/wCBgfORWjF“Gimmie that back boy!”Brock’s panties were suddenly in a bunch and finger-pointing ensued. Claims of “no consensus” after over a month of community discussions.@FurkanEngin @StuardoDev @thefishone @Jesta187 @davidnoname102 @ArtofExitScam @YCisbullish @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 I’m a man of principal. This is mutiny. Rouge, no consensus, no democracy, no respect for agreements, no trust and more. This is like the insurrection at the capital on January 6th when peace was had. Who pulls the trigger when peace is possible? Let’s give @Jesta187 a warm welcome to Cryptopopcorn in what may or may not officially be his first appearance.@brockpierce @FurkanEngin @StuardoDev @thefishone @davidnoname102 @ArtofExitScam @YCisbullish @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 I don't doubt you are a man of principal, but today your words don't reflect that. You issue threats, walk back on promises, and jeopardize the future of the companies you just announced you'd help build.
I understand the frustration - but IMHO you're lost on the wrong path. @Jesta187 @davidnoname102 @ArtofExitScam @YCisbullish @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 The argument that the time-bound tokens were subject to a non-existent contract is a convenient excuse for undermining the integrity of the network. @brockpierce @davidnoname102 @ArtofExitScam @YCisbullish @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 Those tokens were never in the hands of @B1. The entire concept that they own them is false. Those tokens existed in the eosio.stake account with a promise that @B1 could vest them over 10 years.
No integrity here is lost and I'm happy to debate you or anyone on this subject. @EosJeez @Jesta187 @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 The BPs fired the bullet when everything was happening. Ball is in their court to release that a cartel is not a proper form of governance especially if it’s non-consensus based with a group of dictators deciding they are the judge, jury, and executioners. System capture. @brockpierce @EosJeez @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 As an alternative view, @B1 fired the first bullet with you in its path as they made a promise to you for an asset they didn't own.
It's unfortunate that you're stuck in the middle and refuse to see the potential paths forward. Still waitingOh snappity-snap! Big Brock sell-off incoming?@StuardoDev @thefishone @Jesta187 @davidnoname102 @ArtofExitScam @YCisbullish @BrendanBlumer @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 Wait until you see the mass unstaking for sale. Congrats to @brockpierce for officially completing his community initiation proceedings.@BrendanBlumer @Jesta187 @brockpierce @EosJeez @darkaudio123 @EosNFoundation @B1 So your lawyers screwed Brock? Welcome to the community @brockpierce Speaking of screwed, does anyone remember that time when B1 planned to penetrate Africa?B1 accuses exchanges of neglect, but let’s remember Scatter was the most used EOS wallet for years and received zero support from B1.Sounds like a job for the recently dissolved Public Blockchain Engagement division. Welp.The most ridiculous thing about all of this is that neither @B1 nor @brockpierce updated their proxy votes.
They voted for active BPs who signed the MSIG. Many of whom did so days before it was executed.
They had plenty of time to participate in DPOS and chose not to. Meanwhile in EOS GOV…“…the new history of ‘confiscation’” “How do I take that to Bullish?” I mean you’re like the CEO bruh. Don’t be a pussy, walk the walk.Speaking of “Bullish,” here’s a classic. I ❤️ “Stache”Oh no he didn’t! You can’t block the fuggin’ "Stache,” Blumer. Big mistake.🥰I love when the crab shows his sensitive side. 🥰And hot off the press from the Helios Lobby on discord, cooler heads prevail. Discussions with BPs and B1, etc. are still underway.Say it with me people.Brock, Brock, Brock, Brock, Brock, Brock, Brock, Brock, Goooooooo Brock!Thanks for tuning into this episode of EOS Popcorn. I hope you enjoyed all the drama. This is an incredibly important moment in time in the history of EOS. Since ICO I can’t remember a time when the community has been as aligned and has had such clear paths towards funding. It’s truly amazing that so many of you had enough belief to stick around after being dragged through the muck for the last couple of years. Now that the battle-tested EOS community is standing on its own two feet it’s time to make something of the opportunity that sits before us. Side note: As I’m sure all of you know, Crypto can be incredibly consuming. I just want to remind people of what I often have to remind myself and that is how important it is that we make a serious attempt to find a balance and prioritize our relationships with our kids, wives, family, and friends. Take a break every once in a while. There’s no reason crypto can’t be fun and we all can’t laugh at ourselves from time to time. Slanging tokens and NFTs around and living in a space where you can be a part of a community and at times make crypto magic money out of thin air is fucking dope. Be grateful for it and take a break when you’re not. Cheers -S If you liked this post from Cryptowriter, why not share it? |
