The End Of Mainstream Social Media IS HERE! - How Steemit Is Changing The World (with Stephen Kendal)

in #steemit7 years ago

In this video, I talk with analyst @StephenKendal out of Manchester, UK regarding the incredible leaps and bounds we've seen recently on the cryptocurrency social media platform Steemit.

Steemit is a social media much like Facebook, Twitter or Reddit where you can post what you would on other sites, but instead, make money off your posts. It all depends on the upvote and the upvoter. You gain Steem, the cryptocurrency and SBD the token. You can trade your SBD (Steem Backed Dollars) into Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies if you wish.

Lately SBD has been skyrocketing for no good reason other than people accidentally investing in SBD rather than Steem which is weird as SBD is supposed to be tied to the US dollar as a dollar each but has climbed to around $12 recently.

All the same, we are seeing Steem skyrocket and as Stephen Kendal says, he wouldn't be surprised to see it hit $20 USD from its current price around $2. A year ago it was around 7 cents!

With smart media tokens coming out and the vast censorship seen on social medias across the board, Steemit stands to be the future of social media, on the blockchain!

Stephen has been doing presentations on Steemit for quite some time now and even had a slot at the London Investors Show. He was asked back to do a live webinar recently and it's garnering a lot of attention.

Of course Steem was the brainchild of none other than Dan Larimer of EOS and BitShares. His innovative mind has created some of the most useful and futuristic ideas on the blockchain.

Mr. Kendal also broke down his thoughts on the recent rally of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and where he sees this evolution of cryptocurrency going next.

Thanks for the great interview last night Josh. Having you as part of the #Steemit Community is a massive asset to us all. Keep up the fantastic work you are doing Josh. Shared on twitter. Stephen

Yes steem is really changing life and i'm glad to be a member you can also follow ,comment and upvote my post

Yea, Times are changing that's for sure! Now to watch the growth of the community to which make this soo great!

This post has hit #2 top trending post on Steemit! ;)

Well done Josh. You deserve it. It is videos like this that you do that are educational to people and deliver the truth unlike the garbage coming from the mainstream media. This is where Steemit creates real value. You can be proud to say in the future that you was one of the first to say that the current garbage Futures Market will be scrapped and that Blockchain Technology will take over it. This is why the video is worth so much..!! Again, well done Josh. Like I said, you are a MASSIVE credit to the Community, probably more than you realise. Keep up the great work Josh. Stephen

True we need more content like this on Steemit. take the monopoly away from Utube

Great Video Sir , Steemit is really changing the way of Networking.
I have a strong desire to dance and I never have attended a dance workshop. I don't have a single penny to attend the workshop, I am trying to collect money from Steemit to attend a dance workshop in the capital city. I am a self taught dancer and doing it in my own way, I have a strong desire to learn from professionals. This would be my greatest chance to attend the first ever workshop if you Upvote my comment or posts with better value , my dream might come true ,help me in this .I will thank you from bottom of my heart.
Thank you :)

Send me an update on your campaign, I would like to write about that if it happens :)

Thanks! It's my pleasure! Keep up the great work you're doing Stephen! I'm sure we'll talk soon.

Yes, Great interview. Steemit changed the defination of social media platform. Nice information is given from this video.

Just wait for SMT launch, Facebook, Twitter and other big players will going to cry.

Infact I have few ideas tha ti want to start after SMT launch that will change the way we are using social media, the way are getting online education, the way we are crowdfund.

On day to day basis I will launch many applications with the help of my team on top of steem blockchain.

@joshsigurdson - Steem has potential, but it needs to have a better user friend interface (for eg formatting options need to be better) and also an ability to scale up to many thousand transactions per second if it has to compete with social media websites like FB/VK etc.

Thank you, SPK. I have some Man United fans in the family here in Michigan, USA. We are all working for some Steem $ for our "Poshy Princess" (my stepgranddaughter... the 17 year old "footballer"). I am leaning towards Man City just to make it fun. We have Old Toppham on our Bucket Lists, for sure. Maybe with enough Steem $ we'll be able to afford a trip sooner than waiting "til the end". LOL We all hope you are a soccer fan, too. You capture the essence of American Spirit with your vid. Censorship SUCKS!!!! and we hear it's pretty heavy in England! Are you a David Icke fan? or Richie Allen?

I am powering-UP every single bit I collect here, and do this ever since my day one.

And the #1 reason I plan continue doing this is coming the blast of a bomb. It got the name:

The SMT

Definitely! SMT is going to be a game changer

Huge plays are ahead, that's for sure !

hehe

well said

Hello my name is Herman I'm from Venezuela, today I want to ask you to collaborate with my publications, the situation is that my country is very complicated, and together with my wife we are expecting a baby, we both have a job but we only earn $ 2 a month, I earn much more money publishing publications in Steemit than doing 8 hours a day and 6 days a week, the situation in Venezuela does not give to be able to have a baby, but I will strive every day so that my daughter is the happiest and has everything in the life, I do not ask you to pay me a dollar, but if you help me give votes to my publication to achieve savings for when my baby is born, it is a girl and it is almost 5 months shortly before it is born

Cuenta con mi ayuda amigo!

I've heard that Venezuela GV is completely corrupt from the wealthy oil companies. I truly hope this could help part of the citizens. #prayers

Herman lei por alli que el gobierno va a permitir a sus ciudadanos comerciar con monedas virtuales, cual es la situcion actual? Si quieres podemos armar una entrevista en ingles y contar tu historia, mi fuerte es la escritura y por ahora escribo en ingles pero me gustaria que dentro de poco crezca la comunidad latina o hispanoparlante en este medio.
Saludos y mucho exito!

Sigueme y te sigo Herman, Saludos!

I watched Stephen's 55 min. presentation on the talkshow and I was astonished with how deep the blockchain goes and the many posibilities it allowes.

Here's to putting the death-nail into YouTube, Facebook, and the Mainstream Media! Keep up the good work!

Keep up the good work, Steemit (and EOS, and Bitshares). It's time for you to have your Bitcoin moment!

Great Analysis! I'm all on board with your topic!

Great job...Steemit will soon outpace facebook
