I have noticed that other platforms outside Blockchain platforms for example Facebook/Twitter/YouTube are starting to become unusable. Since they lack accountability, reputation and responsibility. People can act in crazy ways on other platforms with 0 downsides. This is something that creates very toxic platforms.
Why would someone sacrifice their time on other platforms creating quality content when they are not getting paid for it? It does not make any sense. For example new YouTubers need at least 1000 subs before they can make any money. So they have to work free for months. This is not fair.
Steem is truly a paradigm shift in excellence. Here people behave in more sane ways. People have incentive to build themselves up here and build up others. The value is there so it’s worth it. Since these platforms work in a win-win way. Everyone owns something. If the platform succeeds everyone get’s wealthy and wins. Based on how hard and smart they worked. You need to use your brain here. Steem Blockchain for example tries to trigger you with Tokens to act in better more productive ways.
There is also transparency here. You can see what others have. Which is a good base to build deeper trust and relationships on. Steem is like a private Bank + Social Media combined. It’s truly helping making your life easier and frictionless. The only thing Steemit Inc and Developers has to work on is to create a better user experience and give more value to people. Then the network will grow to a massive size!
Steem Blockchain wins because it gives more value to the people. Just the fact that transactions happen in 3 seconds with 0 fees makes this a top 10 Blockchain at the moment. One day people will realize the true value of this Blockchain. There is lots of stuff that needs to get done to make this place even more amazing. I would say it will take at least 3-5 more years before this place will truly mature. So be patient I would say.
For me it’s amazing a safe haven like the Steem Blockchain exist. I remember how hopeless things felt with other platforms and their centralised power. Clearly you can’t build a massive successful network that lasts a long time if all the wealth ends up at the top. Wealth needs to trickle down over the years to everyone. With Steem Blockchain we talk Token wealth. People just need to be patient and think about the long game 10-30 years in the future. How much things will change and evolve. We are just 2 years in!
Compound growth is a very powerful force in the universe. It’s truly amazing how it works after a couple of years. I love it so much how with Blockchains and Digital Cryptocurrency how we can make more people into owners. Digital owners of value. Eventually this will spread to Art and Real Estate. Owning digital pieces of anything you want or desire. You will be able to buy and sell anything. The whole global market economy will become extremely liquid. Instead of being paid once a month you will be paid once every second. This will create massive incentive to innovate faster!
