"We can either have a currency (Bitcoin) that has resulted in massive, polluting warehouses full of computers being needed to mine the next Bitcoin - effectively wasting electricity - or we can have a currency (Steem) that requires minimal computing power and where the result is both a direct payout for users based on their own creativity, PLUS where the energy used in the process is partially love itself, instead of coal/nuclear powered electricity!"
Given the fall in the price of STEEM, many people are selling it, without thinking that this currency has a huge value. We must trust STEEM. I am a faithful believer that this platform has a long way to go and will be a strong element in the world of cryptocurrencies. Very inspiring your post.
Aloha! Thanks for your comment - I agree, yes - there are a few hurdles to jump and then Steem's value will rise; how much depends to some extent on a long list of variables that are not all obvious presently!
