No I don't think steem will over take FB unfortunately, if it continues it's current path. Steem encourages longer blog like posts where as FB mostly consist of quick snippets, usually many a day. I think this is where the average FB user would find that STEEM requires too much attention to detail and professionalism to be a real disrupter.
However in saying all that, I still think STEEM will be hugely successful. But it's kinda like comparing Bitcoin to Ethereum. They both have their place and attempt to resolve different problems and both can be successful.
Very thoughtful reply, thanks! I think your intuition is right.
It could over take it once the there are enough different platforms over the steem blockchain... They alread are and i see no reason why not building one similar to facebook... Steemit.com as a site must transform it self in order to grow...
I share your opinion. Numerous services for video sharing, tweets, bloging, etc. based on steemit reward platform will be available in future. This will challenge google, facebook and other enterprises sitting on the market.
Sure of course. Anything is possible.
Exactly, Facebook is a platform to connect people we know of while STEEM is currently based on growing public attention and using it to earn money. Its very different to facebook, we normally talk here to people we don't really know of.
I completely agree with this
