RE: 200 Steem Power! 100% gain - EOS - 146

in #milestone7 years ago

Yeah, i dont see it even holding 20usd as a blogging platform.
If smts make steem worth having, maybe it goes higher, but as influence on a blogging site dont kid yourself how much that is worth.
If you aint buying because its a bargain, rich people aint, either.

Sort:  

I see lots of potential for over $ 20 USD but Steemit has a way to go. This place is so much more then just a blogging site. I think it can be the next big social media site but alot needs to be changed.

  • The wallet needs to be simplified
  • We don't need two currencies
  • Signing up needs to be instant

Just to name a few.

Sbd is a debt instrument designed to sell for one dollar.
Right now there arent enough of them to maintain the peg.

Sign ups are addressed in the next hardfork if stinc hasnt lied to us, again.
Theres a problem, our devs like to lie.

What is wrong with the wallet?

I understand what SBD is ... its not needed. I know that sign ups are supposed to be addressed in the next hardfork. That doesn't mean they will be instant. I guess we will have to wait and see.

The wallet function needs to be simplified. SBD / Steem / Steem Power / USD value being shown, its too much.

Payouts on our post are paid to us in three different currencies and total value shown in USD. Thats four currencies we are dealing with. Remove SBD and payout post in 100 % Steem or Steem Power. This removes some of the values shown on posts and in our wallet and makes things less overwhelming for new users to the site and crypto in general.

One of the most common comments I get from new users is that they don't understand how the wallet works and its mostly due because there are too many currencies being used.

One currency with the USD value shown is plenty.

Or, the newbs could take a few weeks, read the faq/whitepaper and learn something rather than gut key functionality on the platform?
Or would that be asking to much?
Must we all function as morons because the newbs refuse to be bothered to learn?

That would be asking too much. We live in an instant world with people with little patience. The average user isn't going to read the whitepaper. If Steemit doesn't change things like the wallet function its highly likely it stays a niche social media site while a clone site with a simple wallet pushes ahead.

That would be asking too much.

And the morons win!
Isnt the idiocracy grand!
We should all just embrace it,...

It has nothing to do with morons winning. This is social media site and it needs to appeal to the masses. If there is an easier option to understand with better features it will over take Steemit.
