Vlog 199: The Weiss Rating gives confidence to investors that the STEEM blockchain is worth and safe to invest in (compared to other cryptos).

in #life7 years ago (edited)


Out of the 3 things I have done with my SBD in the last weeks buying STEEM was by far the best one.

Since yesterday the price of STEEM has gone up around $2 when the Weiss Ratings news hit.

If you don't know yet, Weiss Ratings is an agency that has rated 75 cryptocurrencies and STEEM is in the top 5.

This is great news.

Of course, we already knew that this Blockchain is amazing. (3-second block times, no fees, scalable...just to name of few) but for investors not sure what to invest in this rating gives confidence in the blockchain and that's incredibly important.

There are so many different projects out there and this rating will act as an investment guide.

I talk about it more in my vlog.

I sometimes wonder about Steem as a going concern. On one hand, it's an innovative approach to social media, on the other hand, the community seems to want to eat itself like an ouroboros.

Hm intresting, What do you mean buy, eat it's self?

Accusations of "reward pool rape"
Actual "reward pool rape"

You know.....basic human nature stuff. The kind of petty bickering that starts out as a beautiful Christmas Eve family get together and ends up with the cops being called and Uncle Jimmy being hauled off to jail.

Lmfao!
yeah I get/ agree with you

@sirstacksalot
in my recent post about why i love steemit and steemians i did reiterate using what my people usually say that if you play any tune in a compound of a great man, there is always someone to dance to it. steemit has good, bad, ugly and when money is involved, the humn nature as you rightly pointed out sets in. but hey, its also good for the system to point out the ills and fight it out so we become the best we are destined to be as steemians. heading to your blog. great comment

I have faith in this amazing technology. Steem to the MOON!

This is a proven product that hasn’t thousands of users. Most other cryptos have nothing but a promise. Believe in STEEM!

What is your definition of Moon?
it already did go x5-x6 in a short time :)

follow for follow

And we are all along for the ride!!!

Yessir! I wish I was a little more in on the ride last year, but that's the way it goes!

Steem has kind of got me hooked... in a good way..

I find it a good challenge. The more I learn and unravel about how to use this platform correctly, the more I find myself wanting to spend here. There are a few folks I am learning to really read, or listen to when they post. "@exyle" is one that I am learning to grab my quick updates from. Thanks for the post dude.... you're really helping me transform from a minnow to a dolphin fast...26279534_1534579123315552_1882553950465425408_n.jpg

It's totally addictive to read up on all of this and take part in it. It's an interesting time to be alive!

Steemit rules!!

Nice work,done upvoting.Pls am new to steemit and don't how to go about it,can you asist?Here is my introductory post@jenwizzy,https://steemit.com/introducemyself

Well, doing my part as a new member too :)

Yep, doing my part as well. New member here :)

I can confirm we will Moon 🌙

I am happy that I am already here. Steemit will become a big player on the internet and will beat YouTube and Co very soon. Big times are coming up.

And to the moon we go! With the power of Steem!

yes I believe it would.. Steam is the real deal...... Though am a newbie, I believe Steam will be one of the world's greatest currency @jsteem and @exyle you are my inspiration.

I can totally see Steem becoming a massive success, especially since it has already grown so much in so little time. STEEM SHALL MOON!

The crypto world does read the news about the Weiss report.

Steem price is going up during the time when most altcoins are following their tales.
It is ingenious to all steemians hang on HODL.
The future is bright.
Keep on steemin'

I believe Steem is the best long-term coin to invest in.

yes u right and from this coin, many jobless people earn at home, steemit steemit everywhere <3
@sibtainali

If you are very right, Steemit is one of the best currencies in the market to invest without fear of losing your profit!

Yep, as long as you stay engaged you always earn at least something.

I totally agree with your thoughts
yes

There is no such thing as an investment without risk.

Not sure if its the best, but its definitely up there. Current system is a bit broken and needs tweaking but the concept behind it is top notch. People profiting off self voting, whales flagging for no reason with rep and rewards disappearing, etc. I understand that its supposed to be a self governing system, but there are issues that need to be addressed.

Yeah, it's a tough line to balance between decentralization and power abuse.

The biggest indication for me is simply that people USE this crypto. The platform is brilliant, the community is fantastic....Sure there are problems but long term, I see a huge future.

Love that Weiss put it in the top 5!!

But regardless of price, I'm in love with the platform! High prices to me are just a bonus :) Thanks for everything you do sir, it's appreciated by us minnows!

Yeh it was great to see Weiss take into account the fundamental strengths of STEEM and just how much it's REALLY used. It's still way undervalued compared to other crypto but it's nice to see those ratings give the price a nice boost in the right irection.

do you believe Weiss is taking the crypto communities seriously in their ratings?

Could have something to do with it, it would be foolish not to take it into account. I'm sure the fact that STEEM has a large community of people really using the blockchain helped get it a good rating

For sure. But what about the rest that are not a social platform? It seems like some of their audiences could literally swing something one way or the other.

I totally agree with your thoughts

Totally agree. Please do not forget thinking about bitshares, as it is the perfect complement.

That´s exactly the point and I wrote about this some days ago. It´s the only blockchain you can use, which makes it obviously superior to any other crypto on the market!

Completely agree! If the price goes to 10 bucks or higher, great. If it goes to 1 buck. Cool...I'm still using Steemit and SBD / Steem every day regardless. It's brilliant and the rest of the world is slowly catching on.

It's a pretty addictive platform. I'm definitely in it for the ride regardless of the price.

Well said! We have to take this stand when talking to people about STEEM. I don´t think, that it´s a good idea, to market STEEM solely with its earning potential. There is so much more to it, people have to know about!

this platform should defeat facebook and twitter

Absolutely. The network capacity and transactions being done blow everything else away. It's not just a concept in progress, we have a working product. That is really rare in the crypto world right now.

in 5 year time steem gonna replace facebook

I agree with you. Is there a way on how to see the number of engagements in steem? or at least the number of user per day? I just want to see how steemit progress in the upcoming days. Thanks

@penguinpablo brings some good stats regularly
@paulag does the in depth analytics
start with those 2 and go from there

Thank you for this!

no worries, we are here to help others, and sharing knowledge does not cost me anything and some have done it for me when i first came to steem

I totally agree with your thoughts

True, some cryptos are far from being in use. STEEM does something already (like Ethereum, bitcoin and the others in the Weiss Ratings Top 10:

https://steemit.com/crypto/@steckxftw/weiss-crypto-ratings-top-10-crypto-2018-with-links

I agree like anything else when things grow there will be things that need to done to make it work better Steemit is still young and has lots of more to grow.

I agree. There is value in utility and having proof of concept utility. I would hope more investors will be interested in the Steem platform and see what other functions we can add to the platform.

I think the more projects we get up and running the more it will go up. People will have way more opportunities to get exposed to it the more applications are built.

steemit using pure proof of concept. It will be a revolutionary way to blogging.

I totally agree with your thoughts

Weiss before and after SMTs

steem best token

it's good!

Absolutely, This is really a big news for the growth of this great platform...Crypto investors, who are serious for long-term success will definitely look to this platform after the Weiss Rating.

I totally agree with your thoughts

Yeah that is what Steen/it need's... People believing in it, along with slight improvements and more content and investing for the long term ( more people buying/ holding than selling)
