EOS will render Steem anything over my dead body.
The explicit bandwidth costs, the multiple ops to settle contracts... get ready to be dissapointed by EOS.
Dan selfishly and secretively wrote ops into Steemd as STEEMIT_OP .. well, they’re properly written as STEEM_OPs now as I always meant them to be - orchestrated for platform use - not single website use.
Now the way is clear for Steem as a platform: bolstered by SMTs and Communities.
I don't have the technical knowledge to know how EOS will behave once launched. I know that it always sounds better in theory than practice. I do welcome the competition if it comes but I doubt one can catch up easily to 2 years of research and development.
Yes. I sort of get a superiority pretentious feel from the official EOS Telegram group. Pretentious people doesn't create a good service.
WAY TO POST @ned!
First time I've really seen you express yourself perhaps.. good for you.
Why don't you talk about ICOs and this usecase for SMT?
I have not seen you speak of this in a long time.. and many of those ideas relate to an article I read recently.
I wanted to make sure you saw this article:
It questions if we would even need ICOs any more in many regards.
Because ICOs often fail to achieve the level of distribution necessary to create the value they are attempting to create.
I love the spirit @ned I wish we can promote steemit more to reach a wider audience. If youre interested you can check @steem-ambassador work by #promo-steem community.
And here comes the big boss @ned 😇🙏
Iam really exited about SMT'S and their impact on steem Blockchain and also about the news of Good Person Tokens.
That's the spirit Ned!
Reallly good to feel your passion here @ned .. it goes a long way!
agreed!!
I love this comment
Steem will always be my first love ;)
Steem is always my first and the last choice. Steem is way better a prospect to be disrupted with the likes of something as new as EOS.
Sir, I am very thankful to you for this community, I am very thankful to you for building a community for us.
@ned is here, what a sweetness, I've never seem him anywhere before, this is a big honour
@Ned for President! #2020
" they’re properly written as STEEM_OPs now as I always meant them to be"
Could you explain what these OPS mean?
They now mean any operation of the STEEM coin refers to the coin not to a website.
I don't really know how this works
But I believe it is good news for the steem blockchain
I must admit that your firm intervention has given me even more trust in Steem. We were hoping for better and better!
"Now the way is clear for Steem as a platform: bolstered by SMTs and Communities."
The message that is sent out is very mixed to me. What kind of platform is Steem? A smart contract platform supported by SMTs and communities or?
Above all it’s a platform for anyone to build and gather their communities, replete with unmatched coordination functionality found in treasury functions, fundraising, monetization and growth mechanisms.
Thanks for taking time out to answer questions, your presence here is a confidence boost for the community! We are all looking forward to the launch of SMT and using it to bring more people and community into the Steem ecosystem.
thanks for sharing your passion @ned! really great for us all to hear/witness! steem!
That makes more sense. I see one important factor in this.
How do you expect investors want to invest in these communities? As a community builder myself, I notice that the interests in supporting communities has dropped.
I know you hear this a lot of times and I am tired of it but most investors are now devoting their funds in voting bots. I understand "Hivemind" could be a solution, but will it direct the funds to the right places when in the background the option for votingbots is still available?
Thank you for taking the time to respond btw. I hope you answer this question too as I feel most of the community builders have this question in mind.
The interesting engaging communities will always thrive since they add massive value! Voting bots are just the new version of AdSense: Man and Robot working side by side to build a better future world!
Another CEO, (Steve Ballmer) was reported as having made similarly enthusiastic and unfortunate saber-rattling statments about the security of Windows XP prior to it's release. That went well.
Underestimating competition is just as bad as overestimating your product. Worse yet- thinking you're above competition created by the same person who helped create - the Steem platform- in the current crypto environment is a great way to have memes made about you.
Reading through all the comments I come away with three main impressions: Fear, Confusion, Defiance. Unfortunate to see since the Author of this tidy little piece wrote it in such a pragmatic fashion. Steem has nothing to fear from EOS, much like Bitcoin has nothing to fear from Ethereum... until it does. But I remember the same blanket statements were made about Eth before it's launch as well. "Vaporware" "Sure to disappoint" "Just another alt" ... which is only true until it isn't and the fact remains, no one sees the bus that hits them. Thanks for instigating my first Steem post. Cheers.
[disclosure: invested in both EOS and STEEM]
Glibly shading and suggesting pragmatic analysis while you bring none to the table and ignore pages of analysis.
You're doing great as a CEO. Keep it up.
The creator /Ceo is so handsome though
Hello ned . By making it easy to blog on steemit will make this platform grow exponantially.it is still hard to write or upload anything on steemit . It should be so easy that an ordinary human being should be able to us it lke facebook. If that happens steemit will be huge huge and beyond your expectations.
