RE: FOMO has officially kicked in... Steem trading at $.43. What's next?

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I think this is just the beginning... as it pertains to Steem. All cryptocurrencies are not created equal. Where some of them may level off and maybe drop, Steemit is really still in its infancy. I believe they have a great idea, to combine the currency aspect with the rewards for creation aspect. I think that the more people that learn about the platform, the sky really is the limit.

Great point! Yes I tend to agree with that. Ideally, when this super pump of all crytpto's starts to fade and die down, Steem starts to hit it's stride in terms of maturity to a point where people and money continue to flow into it because of how great it is. Sort of like one stage hands off to a completely different stage...

Absolutely! Bitcoin and many others only provide investment potential. I've read articles about how rich we'd all be if we got into Bitcoin when it first started. Unlike bitcoin, we have a community. There's more than just investment that holds us together... and we're in on the ground floor. I don't like to give investment advice in case I'm wrong... But I'm in this for the long haul!

Great thoughts. I am as well. My only concern is that someone beats us to the punch if we take too long... we need to strike now. We have first mover advantage and a lot of eyes on crypto right now. We need to take advantage of that before we lose that opportunity.

Yes! I keep plugging away trying to get people here. My friend Joe Dan Gorman has a huge following but when I share his videos on here, they get flagged. That's one problem that needs to be addressed- just because you don't like somebody's point of view, that's not a good reason to act like that! That's the kind of stuff I'd expect on Fakebook and it turns people off to the platform. The "flag wars" (or fag wars as I call them) has cost Steemit more than one good contributor!

Yea the downvote and the flag absolutely need to be separated. A flag should be reserved for spam or abuse. And only a flag should make a post invisible not a downvote... those are my thoughts at least.

My policy is that if I see a post that I don't like, I keep scrolling... But, then again, I'm an adult.

Yea I tend to take the same approach you do... sometimes being an adult gets in the way of things eh?! ;)

Yeah... like juvenile behavior!
