Everyone had experienced the trouble logging in on some social media sites like Facebook and Instagram the past few days. Could it be that there were some attacks made or maybe troubles with servers? Anything can happen right? Did you miss anything important on those times when you had problems connecting with these platforms? An important announcement or update from friends or business related?
That is how I start to appreciate the power of the blockchain and the platform like steemit which has its own steem blockchain. What I am saying is, Steemit could be unreachable at a given instance but there are so many ways and means to still interact with its blockchain and thus preventing you from missing important posts or updates. We have several apps and interfaces that interacts with steemit. We can still access it like there is no problem at all. That is how I see it. I was using esteem app when I read about the problem yesterday I think but I still can read what is on my steemit feed. Isn't that great?
I know a few people here are starting to realize the importance of the blockchain not only for steemit but for our daily life concerns like a casting election votes via the blockchain.
Thanks for reading my post.
