Yes, I'd heard about bitconnect--sorry, it is the wild west for crypto at the moment.
I think Steem has huge potential despite its​ algorithmic​ shortcomings and its tendency towards nepotism and echo chamber inanity...Repeating idiocy over and over and over doesn't make dumb any more relevant​!
Okay, some critical feedback on Steem, but there's also some great quality posting and people on here despite​ the inefficiencies​. I hope for good things for Steem in the future!
