Steemit has done what Dogecoin and Etherium have Failed to Do.

in #left9 years ago

Congratulations to the Steemit developers and community!

You have done far more for crypto and decentralization than any other coin, except Bitcoin, since your inception.

You may ask, "what do you see in Steemit that is so special?"

Steemit is very special. It has taken two completely different applications and turned it into one seamless application. On top of that it has two of man kinds favorite things and intertwined them into this technology. This is powerful stuff!

The applications that have implemented into Steemit are usability and a deep sense of community.

Etherium was advertised and pumped up to be an end-all be-all application that everyone was going to use. It has yet to become that. Etherium is just speculation at this point. No real world applications are being used on top of it only promises propel it into the future. Don't get me wrong Etherium is just in its infancy, but Steemit has become a fully functioning application that is being used around the world. Today it is both beneficial to its users and its bag holders.

Dogecoin came on to the crypto scene in late 2013 as a joke. There was an unbelievable sense of community behind it that put it front and center of the crypto world. I remember looking ay coinmarketcap.com one night and Dogecoin had increased over 1 million percent in value in a 24 hour period. It was astonishing and left me with my mouth wide open. It was this community that had something to it that you could just feel, I call it energy. It is the same feeling I get with Steemit. Dogecoin went on to do some unbelievable things. It sponsored a Nascar driver and it sent the Jamaican bobslead team to the Olympics. But something was missing from Dogecoin and it was not excitement or community. It was application that was used by many and supported Doge. Steemit has filled the void that Doge never could do.

Now, back to the two favorite things humans love that are intertwined into Steemit. Humans love these two things probably more than anything else in the world. We love human interaction and money. Steemit once again fills those voids.

Summary: Steemit is successful and will continue to be successful because: it is a fully functioning application; has a great community; human interaction; and money.

I agree with you Steem has changed the game and made it relatively easy to make a full time income just by being social and so far it actually WORKS! I mean just look at the marketcap already in the top 3 only a few months old!

It's simple. Fast. And disruptive. And we are early investors...Beautiful:)

And you don't need to be a techie to participate, create and get rewarded. This platform is very accessible for almost anyone. Can't wait for the UI to mature and start making smart recommendations.
