I wonder when/if communities and SMTs (Smart Media Tokens) finally get rolled out the possibility of individual members being able to build a genuine business on top of the Steem blockchain will become feasible? Under the current model, I think that it is quite clear that replication of success found on other top social media platforms will be a quite talk order. Time, productions costs, and the profitability potential will be prime considerations of someone considering building a business presence via Steemit. Unless and until there is a clear trend of non-whales being to build sustainable businesses, it would seem to reason that few people will have an interest in engaging in such an endeavor.
