RE: What most people are experiencing on steemit recently
Wow! Thank goodness we get 7 days. And you're right. It's important to network with the purpose of connecting and discovering your bridges of influence without our own agendas flairing up. Fine line to walk. Just like in real life. I emphasize this in a networking group for entrepreneurs and small businesses that I lead on Tues morning. Sales people often come and pitch before creating a relationship and those are the ones that come once, collect business cards and disappear....as the rest of us show up consistently to help each other grow our businesses together.
Yeah, call it good or bad, but I'm much more likely to engage with, comment on, and upvote people and content that I've had meaningful interactions with. Building relationships and getting to know people is very important.
Your networking group sounds interesting. If you haven't already, maybe you can turn the topics and content from those meetings into Steemit posts.
Yes. I had a meeting today with a couple people from my business networking groups and got them all fired up about Blockchain technology, Crypto and Steemit. We're going to put Houston on the map! I have room for 9 people to work on laptops in my conference room. I hope to grow it so big that we need to move to another room. And, yes. I have often thought about the parallels of in person networking and online networking.... relationship building. Thanks for giving me a nudge in that direction. :) Really appreciate you!!!
If you don't know about the Viva coin/VIVAconomy, and TradeQwik, the exchange that it is all built around, this article will get you started.

Since you work with entrepreneurs, this could really be something for you and your group, though, admittedly, there may be some hurdles for US citizens to jump over.
This is awesome stuff! Thanks for sharing. I love knowing about new things. I watched several videos on Viva. Very interesting to see how it evolves! For the new people I'm helping onboard, I have to stick to really basic info on how to get started... Minnow orientation. 😀
For people looking to make an investment, I think Viva is really good to luck into. Even for people who want to, in a sense, mine Viva by downloading an app and sharing their computer's storage/RAM (I'm not entirely sure which), Viva will be a good project to follow.
As for Steem, basics are important. Understanding the differences between Steem, Steem Power, and Steem Dollars can be surprisingly elusive for a lot of people.
