RE: Coinbase and Steem, Everyone is talking about it... Contest with Prizes

in #busy6 years ago

Let's get Steem in the hand of people who actually have a little money.

Steem already is on Binance, the biggest exchange so that isn't the problem.
No one wants to to buy Steem, why? Because it's stake based system, the wealth that is put in is sucked out by those who mined their stake early or posted a lot in the early days. They vote for themselves, their circle, alt accounts and rest goes voting power goes to bid bots. The actual content creators are left with pennies or few dollars and they'll leave soon after. Most won't even bother to join, hence the statistics.

So no matter what exchanges Steem gets put into, it won't matter. I'm starting to believe Steem is a failure. Flawed from the start.

Sort:  

The Binance wallets have been down since the blockchain froze prior to HF20.

I don't think you can claim to know who wants to buy Steem and who doesn't and for what reasons.

Another know it all in a brand new account who is either afraid to say what you think under your main account or trying to scam the system.

Either way, yeah, we haven't recruited a very good set of end users, as we have been focused on onboarding poverty.

Please don't try to make points and make HUGE and unverifiable claims at the same time.

Dude, either your in denial or you've not been using Steem actively. Do realize that your experience differs wildly from those who view Steem for outside or are even brave enough to join. Perhaps to open your eyes to reality, try creating an account and trying to "make it" here. By making it here, I mean gaining over 10 organic comments that aren't by bots, aren't begging for follows or are there just in hopes of an upvote in a week.

There have been good end users, and they have joined and left. Retention numbers speak for themselves, but the circle jerking continues onwards with full steam.

What some(all) Steem preachers here need to do is step out of their self created bubbles for once, ask why people are leaving, why are they not joining in the first place? It's a good place to start to start from.

But yeah, the problem is that not enough exchanges have Steem :) Ask around or keep just keep preaching to the choir to feel good.

You are projecting your own view and while I obviously think we have a lot of problems, so do most crypto projects.

As long as you claim to have magical powers to view and relate other's motives it is impossible to take you seriously.

So as I guessed, you're not ready to actually experience Steem as a newcomer and see the truth for yourself. Funny, how "everything is fine" is being repeated time after time again by Steem preachers, yet ordinary people, who we need to attract are complaining. What gives? And sadly I don't have any magical powers, I just use Steem a lot, have been for years, seen the complaints, as I interact with smaller fish mainly, and see how Steem preachers just keep repeating "everything is fine" while their own head is in the sand. That's not magic, that's just reality.

Even better view is gotten from people who have seen Steem but decided not to join, go ask around how they feel. They're the majority, after all, aren't we one of the few places monetizing content, yet we're having troubles attracting any serious ones or keeping them. Yep, we just need coinbase and everything is fine.

Let's repeat the mantra.

So, you've been experiencing Steem for years? I do have a small account and I have several family members who have joined and not stayed and one that has joined and stayed.

I get that it is hard... I created this account pennies at a time. I made 96 posts that didn't earn a thing.
So forgive me if I don't feel too bad for those who want it to be simple.

One thing for sure the large stakeholders could work harder at supporting the site, but you just look silly saying it from a lvl 31 account. It isn't for you to say....
