Technical stuff is great always, but these two are just killing it :D

Although, in the name of Science I defer to articles with most hits.

This one was very interesting to me, but I wasn't sure if it could be considered "advice" that might turn out to cause problems for BM.  I want to try to help AND protect at the same time...if that makes sense.

Good point on the ones in terms of views.  I just wonder if people think of any of them as hidden gems that are underseen :)

Though I think we should always be open about how we feel when there are competitors who could potentially hurt investors (was it wrong for people to warn about 2008? Mt Gox?), I do also agree that the majority of our time should be spent focusing on how we can change the world with this technology.  I am going to begin looking at those blog entries more and more.

Is-Fractional-Reserve-Banking-a-Ponzi-Scheme

These ones are my favorite---because they help us connect with the audience who doesn't yet understand cryptocurrency but understands that they are being screwed by the current system.  This is a great primer for people who are looking for alternatives, while also enabling them to later use the site as a resource for legitimate investments in cryptocurrency that are not outright scams or that could hurt them. 

I would prefer to see BM start focusing on technologies he finds promising so we can start using the blog posts to make connections.  I know for a fact that if I could go to a certain coin's community and "sharedrop" a positive review on their technology along with the audio-format version, that it would be far more likely that we could bring them in as guest speakers for hangouts, and get them interested in possibly adopting DPoS or finding ways to add new protocol layers to it when needed.
