RE: Towards A New World Wide Web : Thinking about STEEM + Smart Media Tokens
Seems to me the potential is huge.
In a sense, this feels like the next generation of what ventures like Klout, and then empire.kred envisioned... except now monetized for the new Attention Economy.
Granted, a small part of me feels pangs of anxiety at the possibility that we'll end up with a bunch of "Korporate Koins" that will try to derail the decentralized nature of what we're doing here. But we can but wait and see... these are exciting times, to be sure!
And the markets really seem to like the announcement.
Really good points @denmarkguy. While big companies will surely tap into this... it feels like the mom and pop shops of the internet have a tremendous amount to gain. Hopefully value will be distributed differently in the years to come.
Cheers!
