RE: The $100,000 question - to invest or NOT to invest in steemit?
Honestly, I'm not sure that I would... the first few days on here made me think it was a Ponzi scheme, and since then I've been trying hard to establish myself but it's so hard to heard against all the noise. There is so much junk in here, and places like Reddit have very obvious folders where you can find quality.
I think Steem has potential, but I also think it has a lot of problems that it needs to sort out before it has any hope of becoming mainstream.
That's what I'm feeling as well. Ponzi scheme has been mentioned way too many times from people all over to ignore it. I'm really not sure how to go about this as there's very little data available for investors on steem, its current state and its future.
I guess the other part of the equation is the opportunity cost... why invest in Steem when you can invest in other cryptocurrencies that are more obvious and less confusing to newbies. I'll often get people commenting on my posts, who make more money on their one comment than all of my posts combined. It really is confusing.
