It's the end of an exciting week with the price of Bitcoin hitting all-time highs. The industry has been receiving a lot of positive attention lately with coverage on mainstream media.

No doubt, it's an exciting time with new wealth being created for many people in the space. While reading STEEMIT today, I discovered a post by “fulltimegeek” that took me back and made me realize how generous people can be and how much good there is in the world.

This user on STEEMIT noticed the balance in Crypt0's wallet was unusually high, as he was the recipient of a record breaking donation of 29,671 STEEM which is about $30,000 USD at the time of this post. Attached to the donation was a kind, heartfelt, and inspiring message from the user “justbone”.

Amazing stuff! Crypt0 (Omar Bham) is an advocate of the industry and shares his knowledge daily across social media with the flagship account being his YouTube channel.

Real Recognize Real

While it's important to recognize the contributions Crypt0 has made to the industry, it's equally important to recognize the generosity of “justbone” who made the donation and focus on that. By bringing attention to this random act of kindness the likelihood of more generous acts happening as a result is strong.

OMG, not sure who steemian JustBone is … but GOD BLESS HIM! I just saw the fat donation (~$30,000) he sent you. @crypt0snews pic.twitter.com/LIYkO1VAyb — SaltyMashedPotatoes (@SaltMashPotatoe) October 13, 2017

Utilizing cryptocurrency makes it easy to pay it forward to people who have helped you along the way, especially content creators like Crypt0. What's most exciting is this recent example of extreme generosity has the power to influence future acts of kindness through the use of cryptocurrency, and STEEM in particular.

Paying It Forward With STEEM

In the tradition and spirit of paying it forward using STEEM, I've done the same for both “justbone” and “Crypt0” by donating from my personal STEEM account.

What's awesome about STEEM is the ability to include a personal note attached to your donation. It's a wonderful way to get your message across to a recipient and with transparency where anyone can view the transaction and message.
