RE: Part 3 of Our Plan to Onboard the Masses: Smart Media Tokens
"Steem began as.. people who were passionate about the platform. But that is an inherently limited group.
The STEEM token can be thought of as the currency of that community. Most people aren’t interested in Steem and never will be."
Wow, whose side are you guy son? Sounds like you've given up on STEEM as a currency. Is that part of the reason it keeps crashing in value, causing devastation to the community? 0.167 USD today.
"To get those people using Steem, we have to take the lessons we’ve learned from using this technology to give people ownership over their social information and align their incentivizes, and scale these solutions to satisfy the needs of every community."
Do you even read your own nonsense? Listen to the corporate bullshit nonsense you're copypasting and asking us to eat up! It has zero meaning, zero purpose, you're just wasting our time with babble.
The owners of Steemit (and those writing these posts) are not listening to the content-creators or other average users of the site. No fake onboarding plans will have any effect until that changes.
Steem or any other crypto are not likely to be used as a currency any time soon. How can you use something that fluctuates 10% on a daily basis? That isn't a currency, it's an investment. The coins that have use cases as currencies are stable coins. Perhaps eventually some coin can be used as a currency but not until the volatility drops significantly. And this doesn't even take into account the tax issues trying to use one as a currency... as they are written now in most places, it makes it very difficult if not impossible to use one as a widely adopted currency. For now, it is best not to focus on the currency aspects, but instead focus on the utility/speculation side.
well said. I had the same impression.
