RE: The Case for Buying Steem and Steem Power: The Dollar Vigilante Says Steem Is Now a Buy
I'm just greatful I learned about this from watching a random youtube video as early as I did! I'm already worth 2$! :P I feel like it is on the verge of taking over all fakebooks real content makers no doubt once everyone realizes even I can make money over here why wouldn't they switch to a much better more loving platform?! Ah Its a beautiful thing! I'm in love with this app & this steem stuff I still am learning all about and it confuses the hell out of me but I'm sure it'll all make sense sooner than I think. I'm just wondering, What should I be doing with my steem & how best it is used? Ive never even used bitcoin! So all your information is helpful! :3
I'm not sure if it will totally take over facebook, Until Steemit can have the features like facebook. It will still trail it. I think this site is for content creators at the moment, and not for the busy posters of Facebook, who like to document their entire lives, which really what facebook is for, along with the messaging. Currently I use it to converse with my team for game making/Coin2 and keeping in touch with friends and family. I think Steemit has a great future, every update seems to get more interesting. I will continue to stay here for posting my photography,art and game creation. I have had more success here then any other platform so far.
I hate to shit on a party train, but Steemit is SOO far away from even coming close to a Facebook, Twitter etc. I almost wonder how much TDV might have been paid to post this post and promote buying into SP right now(well I guess a guaranteed upvote by all the votes that can payout counts). Because looking at the current state my buy-in is somewhere around .01 -.05.
For starters, the content here people are posting and being pushed to by voting patterns is totally different than what you see on any other platform. You do not see 1-2 thousand posts posted all over Facebook. I do see it being a better alternative to Reddit though, but who knows if or when it could actually overtake it.
Unless the whole interface and options are changed on Steemit it won't even come close to capturing the mass audience Facebook does. Of course, this thing is just a tiny little infant and could grow into something massive, but some major changes will need to happen.
My personal suggestion, because everyone keeps saying but "this is still in beta" I would highly suggest looking at any serious investment as an "investment in beta."
That's true, it's like investing in something before it takes off. Like microsoft,apple, or amazon. Or it could be like investing in blockbuster and circuit city. Then you lose hard. You just never sure in the beginning. Crypto is even more of a mystery and can be more disastrous as a haste.
Any advice would be really welcome as I haven't made a penny
