RE: Part 2 of Our Plan to Onboard the Masses
I think you are completely forgetting one big point. All these Dapps are not going to help anyone if there are no consumers. So you need to onboard masses to use those Dapps and bring FIAT to those Dapps which then reflects in a higher Steem price. People buying Steem to speculate on the price (investors) are not what we need to create a stable ecosystem. We need apps and we need users.
True, but I see the investor part is more important right now. The masses will come if they see fun or added value in DApps but as long as the price goes down and no one invests many will see it as a useless scam - the thing is we have great DApps, we also have a good bunch of users - another cooperation with corporates that could be part of this blockchain would be cool, say a Samsung incoporates a "Steem account" when selling their hardware.
Users don't care about the value of Steem, they care about the apps, and care about maybe getting paid in USD or Euro from the apps. As long as the blockchain is not abstracted people won't use the DApps. (Similarly, do you care about the value in games which add micro transactions via gems?).
Investors is what makes it look like a scam since they bring strong volatility.
some good points I ignored since i am maybe too long here lol!
I mean for the short term, investors is what we need if we want to sell off our Steem for a decent price. On the long term we want users and apps to sustain the eco system.
