RE: An Unstoppable Force And First Compelling Mass Market Solution

Love this! I think NNT's antifragility theory should be spoken out more in many different ways as it seems essential in Steem/Steemit's design. Well maybe it's not consciously baked-in as part of the design, but the fact that Steemit is bringing "actual" social-identity online, is in fact, bringing the antifragile features of humanity into a high-speed network. The "old" Internet failed at this because it wasn't a crypto-socioeconomic state machine that it should've been.

I personally think Steemit's geared for solving grand challenges, but who knows right. Just add monetary incentives into Reddit and suddenly it becomes a different monster.

Sometimes I feel like I'm talking out of my ass, but I hope you geddit lol :)

Thanks. I agree, this seems by far the most intriguing design to date. Indeed, it has only been 2 months since its official launch and Steemit is already swiftly moving forward on some paths never traveled before by crypto projects.

It will be quite interesting to look at it one year from now and then again in 5 years. What's counterintuitive though, is that lots of other unforseen incentives and positive network effects kick in once you reach a critical mass, so I'm very much looking forward to how it will evolve.

This is the development of crypto id been waiting for. Thinking to myself when/if Facebook/youtube adopt bitcoin etc etc. I think this has shown me that maybe its something else entirely that comes and does it first.
