Vlog 233: Steem thoughts

in #life8 years ago


SMT's will create many new communities on the STEEM blockchain.

But I'm wondering what that will mean for steemit.

We are mining the main token here. That will drive all other tokens (bandwidth).

STEEM will be extremely valuable if everything works out.

But before new communities can be built we still have to wait for HF20 and HF21.

In the SMT telegram channel, Ned said that SMT's will come out this year.

I think the mining effort for STEEM will harder before we get there.

I talk about it more in my vlog.



I am a witness with our developer group @blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.

We build Steemify a notification app for your Steemit account for iOS.

If SMT’s come even close to being as big as you think they might be, the demand for Steem tokens could be massive. Any person/company that employs them on anything more than a limited basis will need Steem Power for their bandwidth. Going forward the Steem inflation rate will be less than 9% annually, and dropping. Growth in demand for SP could far outpace the growth in its supply.

Right now, it’s relatively easy to acquire SP. But that could change fast if SMT’s take off.

Yes, well said. I agree completely. I can't wait to try them out when the testnet comes out.

SMT will change the game and bring more pride to steem

I guess, one "mistake" you are making is to equal Steemit as a blogging platform with social media.
As I wrote also in my article yesterday, this is a huge difference regarding the marketing.
The way I see it, Steemit is solely a blogging platform for content creators and not a social media site. In the future with apps like Appics etc. there will also be the possibility to get rewarded for posting and interacting with "daily life stuff", but at the moment, I don't see this casual daily stuff being rewarded by people spending their valuable VP. Again, you may be an exception with your evening food/casual posts, but I don't see much social media stuff here, that is rewarded and simply because this is a blogging platform and not Facebook!

Have you and the other @blockbrothers guys thought about launching an SMT project? I know you're smart and knowledgeable people with a good range of skillsets and if you could think of a good idea for an SMT it could be very lucrative for yourselves, and also go a long way towards helping STEEM.

Have fun with Sam and I'm looking forward to checking out your interview with @davidpakman later

We have not thought about an SMT yet but it sure will be cool to use to get some liquidity with projects and trying to add value it. We have thought about how to utilize Steemify with different communities and that will be cool!

SMT will indeed open many new opportunities in the crypto space and help entrepreneurs to better raise money and at least have a top blockchain technology support. Moreover, it will benefit all of us in steem ecosystem , hence why I am exited. Today, I discussed about Reward Pool Rape: Downside of Steem Blockchain innovate nature in my post-I would like you to check it out in order to get your insight to the issue . I wish you a blessed weekend.

An interesting topic indeed about the future project of steem ...thanks for updating about SMT..makes me think of innovating . Happy weekend and thanks for sharing

Hey @exyle! Great to catch your vlog! It's cool you've been here two years!! i've been here getting to know the community just over 2 months! Haha, but i like how you say 'keep positive & enjoy' it's been my motto since day 1. Not all moments are rosey but then i try to relax! Haha, remember to enjoy & check my attitude. Lol chin up!

Isn't the storytelling fun!!? I am catching the enjoyment of it too!! So fun to connect with seemingly cool like minded folks. 🤹‍♀️

Been wondering about steemify for android, glad to hear it's in the works! 🎉awesome!

Have fun preparing your home for the little one's visit!! Enjoyyyyy every moment 🌸💖🌸

Catch you next time!!

I seriously can't place a perfect guess on how SMT might become or it's long term advantages. I think we all should stay patient and enjoy the Steem train.
Perhaps, SMT will boost Steem the more imagine the recognition steem is gathering without the launch of SMT with alexa ranking, bloomberg, weiss and others. How much more can we expect Steem to grow if SMT comes alive.?

I think SMT's will add great value to the Steem blockchain!

just a cool suggestion?
why do you not make a steem account for baby sam and put it on autovote for some of your favourite authors and let it sit accumulating profits
then you can give a decent account to him when he turns 18... (or 14 or so) It would be like opening a savings account for a baby and putting in a bit every month

That is actually a very cool idea. Give him some start up steem and go! I'll think about it.

Steemify is a very useful app. I don't know if Steemit will survive in the long run, there are and there will be many other gateways to access the blockchain though. SMT is a very good idea for the long term development, we need patience, in the meanwhile, let's just have fun blogging :)
Greet baby Sam and have a nice weekend!

Yay for a witness server! Haha!

I believed that Bitcoin will go higher. Be prepared for your house to be messy if Baby Sam has the ability to "walk". Upvoted!

If you believe and you work hard, you can "see the future", and I think we are going on the right way, right now we are expecting to win some market cap and become one of the best coins in the world.

I have no doubt that in 5 years we will be very happy with this small risk, you just gotta know when to take out your profits.

steem will be harder to get it seems like even currently not easy to get hands on its great that we are getting more sbd and convert in 1:1 ratio but in sometime it will get hard

That was a really interesting colection of thoughts and has left me wondering if I need to rethink my strategy. At the moment I'm full on blogging here haven taken heed of your message that earning will get harder and harder.

Someone was recommending investing in bid bots to me yesterday to get fast er exposure. I've only looked at them from the point of making a positive return which seems to no longer be the place so had dismissed them. Not sure how I'd get the extra exposure though as I don't write in a specific niche. Anyway, something to think about.

I have a couple of questions:

Even if Steemit collapses Steem could stil be a good investment, right?

If Steemit collapses woudl you still be a witness?

Have a wonderful day with baby Sam. I'm sure he'll keep you entertained! 😊

Yes, I consider STEEM is a good investment even if steemit would not be here. Remember Steemit and STEEM are not the same.

Yes, We will stay a witness for sure. There is a lot of work to do in the department, now and in the future.

I know i am biased since I help out on the discord but check out smartsteem... they are quite good since they balance the commerial with the ethical.
everyone can sell their spare voting power but only whitelisted can buy and spammers/copy-pasters are blacklisted
and in my opinion steemit / busy and the other writing platforms will stay but they might not be as important as before.

OK. I'll check Smartsteem out too but I don't have any spare CP or SP. I'm still trying to blog my way to 500SP and am looking into investing.

ok, and sorry @exyle for highjacking your post but @gillianpearce check out this post and it explains how you can get some returns without having to invest or delegate... it just uses spare voting power

no worries man!

Yeeehhh there ia no Sun today to hide from @exyle...lolzz

I am sure you really exited that baby Sam is coming today. Get your house ready coz he is gonna turn it over...hehehe

Well talking about SMTs ,I am hoping it comes out soon . It is going to change the face of blockchain and I am happy that change will be anchored by Steem blockchain but I really don't know what to expect. Just keeping my fingers crossed.

Great thoughts..STeemiT to the MooN..

@exyle I just know that a year from now most people who get on STEEMIT and earn some STEEM will be very Happy. Those that are consistent and produce content and comment everyday will be the Big Winners. I know lots of people come here and get discouraged, all I can say is don't get discouraged know that you will need to go through "The GRIND" just like Mark did or anyone else that has been on STEEMIT for any amount of time. From my own experience I can tell you that .10 and .25 posts don't seem worth it but it does get much better the more you stick to it and build relationships............

beautifull post dear i agree with you . it will growth of steemit

@exyle I just can’t wait for STEEM to return to $8...


How’s the smart eating going for you?

excellent post..life is beautiful.

So much love to share,.. and Yes,... with the one who appriciate it everytime

Will be really great if it comes to fruition. The value of steem will skyrocket 🚀. A huge welcome development to the community I'll say

Forward ever, backward never.

Wow !!
Your explanation about steem is always good for us..
Thank for sharing your thinking...with us..
Its helpful for us @exyle....

With this, the sky is just the beginning for steem

nice your video post

Good vlog. Many site is joining in steemit blockchain. And steemit is growing up. Thank you for your post about future of steemit.

Is it gonna creat another steem block chain ???other than this one .??

great one
lovely post......///////............//////////

STEEM will be extremely valuable if everything works out.

Steem is the crypto that have more people engagement than other cryptos...

this great story I appreciate your writing thanks for sharing this exyle best of luck resteemit..

you are right dear i like your vedio its great web for our blockchain

I'm not sure if this is right but if mining efforts become harder, then the value of steem will be higher. I think it's a good situation for us here in steemit specially those with so much steem power.

@exyle,
"We are mining the main token here."
Wow this is awesome! So now we should power up as much as we can! In future SP will be the precious then! Amazing and feeling truly blessed! Thanks for sharing this wonderful update with us!

Cheers~

Steem will be more valuable after coming out SMT. The innovation that has come from our community has been amazing. Every new application that the community builds to use the blockchain and token in new creative ways adds value to the steem ecosystem. We are very excited to see what you all develop next. I'm also wondering higher growth-up steemit platform. Thanks you for update pretty interesting news.
