Bitcoin: The Ultimate Hedge Against a Disastrous Brexit?
Even as an unapologetic leave voter myself, I'll be the first to admit that Brexit negotiations haven't been going too well so far, and that in the short-medium term leaving the EU might have a negative impact on the British economy.
That being said, with the advent of worldwide decentralised cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, this presents an opportunity for British Bitcoin HODLers to benefit if the value of Pound Sterling were to crash.
The pound has been doing well since the UK agreed on the "divorce bill" with the EU, but still a long climb to pre-Brexit levels.
@Louisthomas, I have an idea for you. With your popularity and audience you have an opportunity to run an experiment that others cannot which could help Steemit grow, hear me out.
What if you took future videos like this one, which touch on politics and risk demonetization on Youtube, and you post them both on Youtube and Steemit, and then track demonetization and earnings on those videos for each platform.
This would give you data to run a video series where you delve into your findings. I suspect the process would garner evidence that once packaged in your usual high quality way, would excite a lot of Youtubers who either: 1) have not heard of Steemit, or... 2) have heard of it but haven't tried it.
Certainly monetization is just one facet of Steemit's potential but in terms of incentivizing new comers to join, monetization is certainly an important consideration.
I really think such a series, done by you specifically, would garner a lot of attention from Youtubers not on Steemit, and perhaps growth for the Steemit platform.
I know I owe my involvement on Steemit to you, and I bet many more do, and hopefully many more to come, will as well.
Love this! Will definitely make such a video. Thank you for the excellent idea :)
Nice! I can't imagine what will happen as steemit gets better and better. Accumulate steem power while it's cheap!
It's a great idea, I upvoted you with 25 cents, hope Louis Thoma sees your comment
This is a great idea, would be really interesting to see the data results from this experiment.
Nice video, keep up the good work!
Your very correct our Politicians are weak at the moment, but I’d choose them over that bunch of unelected dictators in the eu any day, thanks for your great video. Cheers mike
I haven't played Monopoly in a long time. would be cool to play with Thomas. Maybe someone should create a Bitcoin board game
That's a great idea!
Bitcoin is good, but it is backing itself into a corner.

And will make it even worst when most people selling their ponds
It's mainly the fault of those Irish rascals!
Good post and nice video I like that thank you.
That Monopoly board is cool!
Nice post....
