RE: "You're not even successful on Steemit!" - A Personal Short Story.
Thanks for sharing this experience. It truly is amazing that so many millions of people continue to give away their content for free. A good portion of the individuals I share @steemit with always ask fairly quickly into the conversation, "Can I spend my earnings online, or at my local store"? After going through the various procedures to be able to "spend" your earned winnings here, it is usually just too complicated for them to grasp, and they just move on. One thing is for certain, to make this mainstream, the ease in which one can convert to spendable units in whatever country they live, will be key in bringing millions on board.
I couldn't agree with you more actually. Very well said. - I've had a fair share of questions regarding that too, and even though I always try to give them the best possible answer I can.. And even though I offer to help them with the withdrawals, some of them still won't bother.
Well maybe we don't want millions on board? Wouldn't that deflate the value of steem...? And bury quality content?
Also sorry but if someone doesn't wanna take the time to learn it that's on them.
I'm sure there are at least several million people on this planet that would contribute excellent content to the community.
I agree. There's always more to learn. Diversity is good. :) I was just referring more to those who get frustrated with the conversion to spendable $ and don't wish to learn a new skill
Most people are trying to bring more users to Steemit. I guess it would increase the value in general but it would definitely bury content too. As long as the current system are in place.
I think this concept should be common knowledge. You try to explain this stuff to people and get the "that's a scam" or other general lack of acknowledgement. Just bevause they don't understand it. Others say crypto is "too volatile" well ok but so is the stock market rolls eyes
