For the vast majority of people, it is unfortunate that the only reason why they are honest, is because they are kept honest. Some people are indeed honest because they want to be, but those are few and far between.

I just got baffled with what these guys have just done:
https://steemit.com.
The site funds blog post authors by redirecting part of their steem currency mining fee to them, based on user upvotes. You would probably think that this is totally ridiculous? It probably is, and I also at first thought that it was, until I looked at the 84 million dollars of their capitalization (
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem). They have created almost 100 million dollars in value in less than 3 months time. They have done what
reddit.com never managed to do. In fact, if
reddit.com still don't get it now, they will never get it.
Imagine creating an "islamit" blogging site, where the authors would get paid by the "islamit" cryptocurrency? In 6 months time, it would probably have 1+ billion dollars in capitalization. It would be the biggest publishing powerhouse in Islam ...
With Islam's 1.5+ billion head count, I keep dancing in circles around it, without knowing what exactly to do, but at the same time I just know that there must be some very big stuff that you can do with that. It should be possible to preside over something absolutely spectacular. The steemit guys pulled it off with only 70 000 users. Can you imagine what would be possible with the kind of numbers in Islam?
