RE: Are you satisfied with the steem and steemit as it is now?

in #dpoll7 years ago (edited)

Steem is indeed a fantastic opportunity, but it is business.
Steem is business. Not just the people treat it like a business.
It is business.
Steemit is a blockchain-based blogging and social media website, which is a part of Steem.
Steem is a blockchain.
A business-based blockchain with two (three) cryptocurrencies.
Steem, Steem Power, which is a vested Steem, and Steem Dollars (SBD).
This is a fact. This is the truth.
Even if you don't agree.
Just look around. The whole thing is based on business and on money.
For example take a look at the Steem Power.
The more Steem Power you have, the more influence you have on the blockchain.
People are buying (or earning) Steem Power.
People are buying Steem Power either with fiat money or with cryptocurrencies.
For example with Bitcoin (BTC) or with Steem Dollars (SBD).
People are earning Steem Power either with author or with curation rewards, or with beneficiaries. Or simply by holding Steem Power, because "15% of the new tokens are awarded to holders of Steem Power." - Faq — Steemit.
Sometimes people are Powering down, and selling their Steem either for fiat money or for cryptocurrencies, for example for Bitcoin (BTC) or for Steem Dollars (SBD).
Most of these things also go with Steem Dollars (SBD) with the exception of Powering up and down, of course.
Steem and Steem Dollars (SBD) has prices, which are chaging (moving up and down), and people are buying and selling (and holding) these cryptocurrencies.
All of this is business.
People (including both you and me) are delegating their Steem Power, buying and selling upvotes to earn even more money. That is called investment, which is business.
Sometimes people are leasing Steem Power to (temporarily) gain a bigger influence on the platform.
That is also some kind of investment, therefore a business.

Sort:  

@xplosive yes that is true but steemit is not a business. Just a people make business from it. Should me not a business. You should earn rewards do to your posts and you should not buy votes.
But the people make it like this because they are greedy.

So all in steemit is not a business 😁
Thats another point what the people make from it.

And that is another point that it has a investment option.
But that is steem and not steemit.

I was talking about steemit and the 2 is not the same😉
