RE: Vice.org, Revolutionizing the Online Adult Streaming Sector with a Steem Smart Media Token

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

A lot of your points are spot on. But there's something else to consider. Most ICO's have to try desperately to "sell" themselves and their idea to people to get them to invest... They start with just an idea and try to paint a picture rosy enough to get people to invest...

Vice doesn't apply there. Vice was created by some of the biggest names in all of adult, look up 10 Network, Elegant Angel, 3rd World Media, Penthouse, etc.. And then look up the per year average generated income from porn, about $18,000,000,000. thats 18 BILLION.. What are the most visited sites on ALL of the internet? Porn. Hundreds of millions of visits per month..

Vice doesn't have to sell us anything. It sells itself. You just have to understand how STEEM operates to understand Vice. From there it all makes sense. Top executives in porn + top studios already on board + get paid to watch porn + hundreds of millions of views per month. They don't need to sell this as an idea, its already a billion dollar working model, and now Vice is going to corner the market in this space.

I believe their concept is rock solid, their audience is endless, the team of executives is solid and I end with this............ the team behind Vice is made up of people who made their fortunes already, innovators, people who changed production, changed how we view porn in hotels and at home. These guys are in this to make a major change again, to innovate, to add to their legacy JUST AS MUCH as they are in this for the financial gain. So to think they would have anything less than the top tech people behind this would be foolish.

I'm all in on Vice.

Thanks for your comment @icepc68.

I think I covered the importance of having an existing library and Rolodex in the original article.

I’m not one to diss Stuart’s and Kelly’s experience and network. I would be much more confident if they planned a vertical on steem, rather than go fork. I look at different things when it’s a startup vs. a blockchain operator.

Allow me to add that the presale took place after immediately after CES. Maybe that rings a bell with you, especially in matters of the next conference in Vegas.

Time will tell. Currently it’s presale, not even ICO yet. All options are still open. :)
