In recent downtime Steemit lost my post that took me hours to write...

Here is what I could re write from the post that steemit deleted during the recent possible DDOS attack or unscheduled downtime .... I know it sounds impossible but I am perhaps the only person who can say they had their Steemit Post deleted. I had my post in my Submit.html page, I hit submit and the possible DOS attack on steemit happened and Steemit went down, it just came back up and my post was still there saved, but not posted, so i hit submit ( I should have copied it first but how was I to know? Apparently it was because I submitted the post before the nodes had fully come up online and there even might be a chance the post is lost somewhere in the nether world but it won't happen again after this problem will be prevented in the future) and it showed up on my blog, even gave me a link https://steemit.com/steemit/@ackza/my-idea-to-delivery-packages-paid-for-in-steem-sbd-using-the-seacharger-solar-powered-ocean-going-drone-which-can-go-2400-miles and now its gone :( so I will try to speed through the post and try to get as much as I can from memory:

So here was a Video of the Drone in question, solar powered, cheap parts, GPS, etc and we can use it to launch from one beach in Florida for example and send packages to Africa and @tj4real or @xpency or @richforever in Ghana or Nigeria can go to the beach and pick up the drone and walk out to the beach, open the drone with a QR code or phone app using wifi to unlock it and get the package and send the drone off to its next location, and we could have a whole system for steem blockchain to have a peer to peer delivery system decentralized where the builders of the drones can launch them and make dividends off the money the drone will get to make off people scheduling to come and then go delivery items to any coastal city in the world

here is a diagram

And then i had thi whole clever thing where I surprised my readers with some blockchain education:

I write this for any new readers: DPOS or Delegated proof of Stake is the technological basis for Steem blockchain and is how new steem is mined (But it is NOT mined the same way Bitcoin, Reuther and other Proof of Work (POW) coins are mined ) , it is based on a proof of stake system but with votes hence DELEGATED Proof of Stake , ( and "proof of stake" are the coins where you mine for new coins by simply buying the coins and holding large amounts of the coin in a staking wallet and a certain amount of new coins is allowed to be created this way, while Proof of Work (POW) coins like Bitcoin or Ethereum, litecoin and many many more use the CPU/GPU processing power to actually create new Bitcoin out of Math, the more processing power you have the more complex of a math problem you can create/solve and the faster you can turn electricity into Bitcoin! It takes up much more electricity to use Proof of Work coins than Proof of Stake and Ethereum is actually transitioning from proof of Work to Proof of Stake soon. The proof of Stake model was limited and then @dan came along and made Steemit and the Steem Blockchain with his creation of Delegated proof of Stake with a Blogging social media system so people can either make money by buying the coin and holding it (waiting for the price to go up in price) and up voting good content (curation rewards) BUT ALSO if you have no money at all Steemit still let's anyone with an internet connection and computer/smartphone access to signup free and start from $0 without holding ANY steem coins and yet still earn some steem by POSTING or even commenting!

(GREAT infographic from @stellabelle which i think we might want to expand and show like examples of proof of work and proof of stake on, and then delegated proof of stake separated as really a third system. So many math and computer science based people will get much more interested into Steemit when they actually understand how it works visually!)

When you first come here and you don't know anyone here you will probably have a healthy skepticism but once you start earning followers and you are making a few dollars in steem per post or comment then you start to get excited. And then you REALLY feel evangelical about Steemit as soon as you start cashing out your first $100 in steem to bitcoin then cash and actually spend money you made off your steemit, THEN you start to really appreciate this thing! When you start to earn from steemit you start to accept just how unique and interesting this blockchain is with the way it mixes the social media with the cryptocurrency in such an elegant way! And you would never know how advanced Steemit really is because the creators are super humble! Steemit even seems to attract people who appreciate this sort of elegance and I feel sorry for anyone who does not understand the gracefulness and complexity and simplicity of steemit, it is probably closer to a living organism more so than most any other website.... Steem blockchain with its witness nodes are like mitochondria in a cell or the blockchain is the DNA maybe, well those analogies are always slippery but I am sure many biological bio-mimicry analogies can be made with Steemit network! And hey i just googled it and I actually found this great article on ether direct first published on Medium's Consensus X the crypto section of medium, and It's titled "Biological parallelisms inside blockchains: Homeostasis, hormesis and blooming/migration in Bitcoin" https://ether.direct/2017/08/24/biological-parallelisms-inside-blockchains-homeostasis-hormesis-and-bloomingmigration-in-bitcoin/

(As you can see they compare the bitcoin network to things like firefly synchronization, fungus mycelium networks and even make comparisons between bitcoin and bitcoin cash miners and Algae blooms discussing opportunistic migration, and how bitcoin miners inevitably migrate physically to whichever country and city has the cheapest electricity costs (I wonder why Oil rich states who don't really pay much for electricity don't build diesel power plants to run Bitcoin mining off their Oil supplies XD hah I'm sure plenty of people are thinking about it in venezuela and if the venezuelan government just embraced the bitcoin miners and worked with them they would do a lot more to help venezuela and I am sure there must be some government workers in Venezuela who still want their people to be wealthy even if they also happen to be socialists, and who would also be willing to ditch the socialism once they realize where it gets them...so we should really reach out to actual government workers in places like Venezuela and Zimbabwe who actually have the ears of the politicians and people in power, and their own self interest can be our vehicle to entice and tempt the governments of these nations to not only allow and fully legalize but encourage and accelerate widespread adoption of Steemit and bitcoin to their entire populations as a plan to make everyone in their country wealthy and become heroes for their people.

( screenshot of recent story about Bitcoin prices going past $7000 in Zimbabwe, https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-prices-skyrocket-on-zimbabwean-exchange-during-economic-turmoil/ we realy need to help them get cheaper bitcoin! There has to be many ways to electronicaly send money to people in Zimbabwe like amazon gift cards, prepaid debit cards, etc or a way to allow people in zimbabwe to send us money so we can send them bitcoin, and see it is hard for me to think of ways that can actually work and the same with vnezuela and so this is another reason why Steemit is hat they need the most so they can trade their time and brain power to get steem and thus Bitcoin for themselves! )

Zimbabwe's government could even make up for all of its mistakes and teach the world that things can get better no matter how bad it looks and no matter how bad the zimbabwe dollar gets because as soon as zimbabwe switches to using Bitcoin as their national currency with some sort of new bitcoin backed zimbabwe dollar for people without smartphones but maybe the zimbabwe banks could allow some sort of bitcoin balances, we need a solution for people without smartphones and the zimbabwe government would need to just keep printing fiat money until they could buy enough bitcoin miners to gte create enough bitcoin to start paying their government budget so they can ween themselves off addictive paper money, same with venezuela who is also just printing money like crazy. But in Venezuela and Zimbabwe the problem of sending people items in the mail via shipping is huge and it is very expensive and takes forever, and so imagine if we could use a fleet of solar powered drone boats and semi submersibles to go through the worlds oceans delivering packages for us all on a steem blockchain, allowing someone to pick up their item at the beach as they wade into the water and open the compartment on the boat by scanning the barcode on their phone they would receive!

(Image of the SeaCharger solar powered drone that made it's first voyage earlier this year, nearly 2413 miles from California to Hawaii and then almost made it to new Zealand but the rudder broke 300 miles short of the goal which is not a big deal and is still a major success for one guy and his children building this thing! check it out at http://seacharger.com and check the article here http://newatlas.com/seacharger-solar-power-boat-ocean/43548/ )

The Ocean is the nation of steemit since the ocean borders almost all nations on Earth and the ocean can allow us, through shipping, to reach almost everyone else via the coastlines of the world and ports. I hope to one day build a fleet of solar powered drone ships or drone submarines with solar panels, lithium ion batteries and small motors and GPS like the seacharger shown in the images above and below, to let steemit users ship things CHEAP and FAST using steem from beach to beach! Just imagine going to a beach and just launching a solar powered semi submersible with solar panels into the water and it just starts swimming through the waves and goes out into the ocean and it would just use GPS and go from California to Nigeria and it would just go around south america and across the atlantic so i can send extra cheap android smartphones and battery chargers to my friends in Africa without waiting months! Still waiting to hear from @ortigas100 if he ever got the two USB solar chargers i sent him, but he warned me it might take a few months and it is because there is not that much shipments like that to Africa yet but SOOn that will change either with more traditional shipping or solar powered drones like this below:

A decentralized shipping service (maybe even for steemit??) would be one of the missing links here and allow us to create a physical bridge between the digital and physical worlds and I am surprised drug dealers haven't found a way to replace the legal postal system and fedex UPS DHL with some sort of black market courier delivery system, or maybe it exists and I just am not aware of it! I bet a decentralized courier system to bid on allowing people top transport packages around the world would be HUGE. I know they already have a website to allow you to rent out space in your luggage to transport packages around the world and I am sure people secretly use that for drugs! I mean the App is even called "AirMule" App lol just kidding I am sure people check the packages and dont risk carrying drugs for others! Anyway the service it IS cheaper than shipping conventionally and it is genius to allow travelers to register and accept packages to take with them (that they can inspect of course to avoid drug trafficking) and then the recipient can pick up the package as soon as the traveler arrives at the airport allowing people to get Air Mail package delivery speed at super cheap rates and allowing travelers to make extra money taking extra items with them.

Anyway I hope we can start building steem blockchain connected hardware and drone vehicles like this to create a sort of physicality to back up the steem network! A simple drone ship like that could allow two steemit users across the world to send and receive packages and even food aid smartphones and solar powered batteries, it can land on the beach and be sent back to another part of the world and the person receiving the boat can then get PAID to place a new package in the boat or to simply push the boat off and send it on its way to the next location where it will pickup whatever and then deliver! It could even provide a sort of low cost delivery system for all Coastal Steemit users making the Ocean the great common denominator for all of Earth's Peoples!

(Here is the Map of Global Shipping Routes and very little goes top Africa so we need to help Africans to get cheaper shipping and we can allow people to ship things via steemit!
I know there might be some regulatory restrictions but I believe this project can literally fly under the radar and since it has already made its voyage across the pacific I know it will be able to go from Florida where we will order cheap smartphones from China, and then send the drone to Ghana and in 41 days it can go 2400 miles so yes over a month is a long time but it will end up being very cheap or free even.

We will all be able to live on a Steem Island!

I had more info but because steemit lost my post during the DDOS attack I had to rewrite everything so I will now just hit submit and hope i was able to remember everything i wrote!

Thanks to @tytran for the steemit swag and we have some cool stuff planned! I had to rewrite this entire post but I did have a lot of stuff down here, man whatever it sucks having to rewrite a whole post!

If you are in San Diego come to the san diego steemit meetup by @captainobvious here is the post https://steemit.com/steemdiego/@captainobviou3/i-got-a-package-from-papa-pepper-or-steemdiego-meet-up-is-around-the-corner-or-video-included And if not many peopel come we will just create a new meetup! eventually we will have a large San Diego steemit group

Steem is going to $10 soon, then $100 then $1000 and I have been very entertained by the Discord Steemspeak.com chat and please check out the new @curiosity bot by @gyzimo and @frystikken and you can now send and receive tips for SBD live in the chat!
