RE: Is Steem Blockchain dead

in #steem7 years ago

Well the Facebook adoption started in dorm rooms probably Steem would be written from developing countries, once folks see value in the story they share and want to support these authors it would give the token some speculative value, what Steem has to manage is rewarding these upcoming bloggers, word of mouth is still the most powerful tool.... I wait for the day when election strategist use this platform to get their message across and support those who support their agenda's.... As with any social media platform, these are the most lucrative times.... we have to see how this platforms develop over time and what crowd it manages to retain but for now, there is work to be done and efforts at maintaining the enthusiasm, the speculative value of its token like Steem and SBD would help maintain enthusiasm... When SBD was trading at 10 and 15 dollars folks are pumping out some fairly quality post looking for upvotes, but now bidbots have taken over so its difficult to get that kind of support and SBD has lost that value so there is some balance and measure of traction to find again but now its just the same old faces getting the 200+ upvotes because most can afford the luxury of bots, so some balance has to take place sometime....

Agree with you . Also many people own Steem in the exchanges and keep it there “liquid” because they don’t even know they can transfer it to Steemit and earn on there Steem . If everyone in the exchanges came over to Steemit and powered it up things would be different . I also wish on one of these forks they found a way for us to be able to change user name 1 time. I’m sure the community would like that.

This is an interesting discussion. I am new, so unsure what’s going on, but I hope more people come into Steemit and they buy Steem to power up. As a newbie I am saving my money to buy Steem each payday because I think its at a low price. I don’t have a crystal ball and it certainly could go lower. I was encouraged by my friends to join Steemit and I am sure this word of mouth introduction to Steemit is taking place on many continents right now, such as South America and Africa, as one of you mentioned. The world is hungry for a better deal then trading time for money and for some this is the better deal.
