OK! Lots of comments already here, but I just want to put this on the table - you can spend money and time trying to convince people/businesses to adopt Steem, or you can spend time and money helping people who have already adopted Steem make money.
The folks here; from the largest whales down to the pauper who cashes in Steem as soon as it is earned, just to buy food - all of them came here to make money!
Do these things:
Offer an easily accessible marketplace where people can sell products and services for Steem . Make it like a hybrid/cross between Upwork. Etsy and Fiverr.
Give folks with expertise a way to teach others marketable skills for Steem.
Separate the Actifit and game report posts from the works of fiction and art.
There are programmers/coders already invested in Steem. Pay them Steem to improve the interfaces and make everything more inviting and easy for newcomers,
Thanks for asking! 😘

Those are all great suggestions. I'd love to see something like a marketplace you mention above.
It could definitely help! Thanks!

With a better ability to sift through all the content or some sort of condenser that grouped pertinent topics e.g. crypto with subsets into more specific streams steem could solidify itself as the crypto 101 platform.
For me personally the edification I’ve gotten here has been the most tangible value and I’d imagine would appeal to the masses of people that really don’t know wtf a blockchain is or could be etc.
Also, not having an up to date well designed mobile dapp is pathetic af. Yes, I’m using partiko now and it’s annoying and spamming the shit out of steem but the fact remains it’s the only semi decent mobile front end. That’s sad considering it’s dev abandoned the project and it’s not running “new steem”
It’s almost 2020 and for a technology that’s supposed to be innovative, hip and all that shit not having a fluid intuitive mobile first design is unforgivable..
Building a community around a currency is backwards and the wrong approach so I’m not holding my breath on the SE token tribe thing, not to mention that page is a complete joke. I don’t even dare waste my time trying to claim micro penny tokens on that school project looking site.
So, I’m not trying to just blast the movement I’m just saying if this is the best it’s going to get after 6 months it’s laughable and we should fix the existing projects that were supposed to add value to the platform because as of now it’s a big fail imho.
I agree with the vast majority of this statement.
I agree as well. Partiko has been great but mobile needs to be catered heavily.
I've been asking for emojis for such a long time because they are an important key in drawing "the masses".

Partiko and those comment/post signatures are obnoxious.
If that's not clear enough, I am NOT a fan of @partiko and their obnoxious "marketing".
Comments with a @partiko signature will not be receiving any votes from me.
I hate the obnoxious marketing as well. However the app has been great to use and is why I over looked that. I only interface with steem through my phone so I need a mobile app!

I personally don't mind the marketing tidbit from Partiko since I don't think they could really market that well without having a signature there.
They had plenty of users who would've advertised for a simple upvote. Forcing someone to put a signature on every comment is sort of being a nuisance and seemed unnessecary in my opinion.
I made an ad for them and they never upvoted me for my support.

i thought they will remove it in time, but from what i got, maker of it is somewhere in china now and don't have access to do anything. after the HF it was down for some time.
for now there is no better mobile app for steem, unfortunately.
partiko isn’t bad I’m using it as well, but i wonder why they kinda abandoned the app, seems no communication at all since months...
You never know what goes on in another person's life sometimes. I dont think @partiko had many developers. @crypto.talk any info that would help our questions?

Do you use an iOS phone? I use Steemify and it’s a great mobile App.
Thanks! I’ll check it out.
Okay, here’s the link in the Apple store.
Steemify by B Rexwinkel https://apps.apple.com/us/app/steemify/id1290154477
I wrote a review for a contest also.

the best thing for steem would be you and @themarkymark going to jail
Mobile app for sure. I would also say an simple way to get rewards from crypto to fiat. That comes with more engagement on the blockchain though. Places like Coinbase won't list something without any exposure to the masses.
Being advertised on craigslist would be perfect.

Something that requires steem to be burned, one thing that investors/speculators look at is the inflation rate so we need to offset the new steem to help lower liquid steem supply
Even though I'm burning PORN while it's just getting up and building their user base, I don't believe this is a long-term solution. It's been tried many, many times by many different tokens and rarely does it work out for the better.
Maybe if we introduce a CD model, where you can lock steem up for months/years for a return. Also implement a penalty if you unlock your coins before the terms expire. The longer you lock it up the more return you will make...
There isn't a lot of options to burn steem. As someone who provides a service burning steem as payment doesn't pay their expenses, labor, or give them any profit.
Some use cases where Steem can be burned:
The first two wouldn't likely burn enough Steem to really make any difference. Three is the best hope and even that won't even remotely keep pace with inflation.
Just thinking out loud here.
Hi @sepracore
In my opinion "free to use" and "no fees" is just a marketing tool, that is misleading everyone around us. Maintaning nodes and entire infrastructure is costly and we're ending up witnessing STINC dumping tons of STEEM on montly basis - just to cover those costs. Hidden cost, that's what it is.
I rather pay small fee for each transaction.
We need a front end that is entirely share to steem and vice versa.
Lot's of content creators are needed amd I'm not just talking about amateurs.
Example I tweet, it is posted to all the 100+ other SNS I am a member of. If the people engage, it notifies me and I can comment without thinking which platform to respond on.
This would be one hell of a project, many have tried, no one has got it right and we end up with engagement all over the place.
That would be pretty cool.
This would definitely do it. Users want ease! Make it easy to post and when you post on steem, you post everywhere. Like a share2steem. The blockchain that figures this out will win.
The commenting all in one place is key. A cross platform ranking, reward and post system is needed so people can act like they all engage in the same place without even being aware. Search engines do it.
@engrave is one good example since they offer a better product than Blogger.com, and a cheaper and in some ways better product than Wordpress.
I also found @buildteam's @tokenbb product to be competitive.
Projects like that who are building despite this bear market will surely do well once the bull market ensues IMO.
A STEEM-based patreon supported by a condenser widget.
Many creators in the niche Steem ought to target relies heavily on their support through patreon. But last time I checked, the platform fees are way larger than what you would pay to buy into crypto, support a creator, and then have them sell into fiat again. Another smaller problem is that it is not really built into the platform the creators use (such as YouTube) and must instead be shared as a fugly link.
Having a STEEM-based patreon could create more demand for STEEM both directly and indirectly. The first being obvious and the second referring to how it would also help make Steem a more attractive platform for creators to have their content and drive their audience, as we really need more good reasons for people to choose steemit/steempeak etc over way more attractive platforms like medium. Finally, it is something people could use without making the full move to a Steem front-end and still create demand for Steem. Imo, more products that are Steem-based that users can use directly from their existing websites, blogs and content channels without making the full move over is good.
Edit: oh and maybe more creators would care to share their content and increase engagement if there was some added revenue stream that scaled with the number of followers who truly gave a shit.
Internally, I'd like to see a lot more numbers and analytics that people can use to gauge their various progress more easily. Gamify it a bit more without Steem earnings being the only metric.
That was always something @ned spoke about. Never came to fruition, I'm shocked.
Soon. :D
Maybe if you people could burn steem to customize their pages.
Like I would love to get myself a custom background on my profile page every time people visit it.
(Guess it would burn a little bit of steem ¯_(ツ)_/¯ )
A site is not blockchain. Solution should be sought at the blockchain level.
Yeah, I am not the brightest sun in the milky way galaxy.
I agree @martie.
Maybe make steem easier to use for new comers, people are busy nowadays, we don't have time to figure out how steem works really.
I agree with you, this is a problem that I faced personally when introduce steem through events. Sign up, waiting time is too long and people forget about it after sometimes.
That has been a long standing issue. There has never been any attention paid to developers or consumers.

I see with happiness that others have the same ideas. Posted a couple of days kind of the same question and use cases. I think removal of Steem from the rewards and replacing it with some SMT. Steem shall be produced only by witnesses and needed as resource credit and power up for SMT use and also the to go version for exchanges.
I couldn't disagree more. Our witnesses have proven to be completely useless and irresponsible. It's nothing more than a popularity contest and likely one of the largest flaws within STEEM.
The way it is handled and that only 20 count leads to such mess. It was a suggestion with SMTs working, where this might be a far away thing like everything from Soon Inc
