RE: WHY IS STEEM FAILING? BECAUSE YOU ALL BITCH AND WHINE ABOUT SELF-VOTING.

It certainly wasn't the allure of investing money in order to reward others. By the way, Steemit is not censorship resistant, ask @theshadowbrokers.

Sort:  

If there was a desire to publish on here, people would flock to here regardless of the price. That has proven not to be the case.

First of all I never said steemit was steem, you were talking about publishing on a platform, that platform being steemit.

And no, this is not the most used or active blockchain, it's not even in the top 5 depending on the day you look:

What drove people to join? Um the prices shooting up from $.07 to $2.83 in the spring of 2017.

The proof is in the activity levels man, c'mon:

That chart is a weekly chart of posts and comments, and it almost perfectly mirrors the price of steem chart.

It clearly shows there is a correlation between the price of steem and activity levels.

SMH

Spring 2017:

Prices went from $.07 to $2.83 just like I said.

If what you say is true the users and activity on here would continue to go up and up regardless of what the price of steem does. Looking at those numbers overlayed on a price of steem chart doesn't support your thesis.

BTW, curation rewards are why most people stake up, because most people recognize that there's no such thing as money trees and they want to get rewarded for rewarding others

Curious what your take is on curation snipers.

Almost but not sure what you mean by fellow low sp accounts. They often target popular accounts known to receive high payouts with a nominal vote and are more or less agnostic to the content itself.

It's going to be much more profitable post fork I imagine. I see it as undermining ideal functioning of content discovery via organic curation.
