STEEM is a blockchain. Blockchains are useful only when people use them. People don’t want to use them if the right of access (tokens) is expensive. So the better a blockchain is, the more useful it is, the harder it is for its tokens to “moon”... Tell me I’m wrong.

Mmm... using Steem as an example might not fit that strict description...
What I mean: a person doesn’t NEED Steem to access and participate in it - they only need tokens if they desire to hold larger voting power.
Thus, the usefulness and price may be separate issues. A lot of people here have still found Steem useful while price has been low. And given that, price may be related more strictly to speculation and/or the demand for voting influence...

and blockchain, given a good design is considerably lighter in infrastructure than platforms that support traditional currencies (at least the massive ones). think about the intermediaries being rendered obsolete. of course, it'd be unwise to shove all kinds of data into the chain.. so blockchain is certainly a specific kind of solution, probably to complement traditional databases.
@ned and @stinc have no business savy and should have taken me up on $2.00 steem token offer long ago. They would have gotten A LOT more value than the $150,000 they are plowing into the latest failed project (DOA).
The only real draw of the STEEM blockchain was to get rewarded for your content. All the dApps and whatever else is going on is pointless and overrated. Steemit INC squandered away a lot of money by turning Steemit from what it was to what it is today.
I was looking for alternatives for entirely different reasons, then found a standalone frontend to Steem called eSteem Surfer. I guess I'll be using them instead of Steemit (or other web-based frontends). I just must find a clever way to link to my posts on the blockchain without going to these web-apps.
People have been building apps and stuff on Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc without a "second layer reward pool" like Steem anyway..
This social media blockchain can only attract the most socially inept people that lack basic skills in social interaction.

It's been like that since the advent of the social media. Read reddit.
LOL!!
It doesn't really seem like content matters. You only get votes from others if you have a huge wallet, they opening it turns to a vote 4 vote
Everyone should stop eating cows
eat more beef, less emissions. i'm saving the planet one steak at a time
More methane, more destruction of natural habitats. Not sustainable at current consumption.
and there was a loud voice that said unto the shepherds, piss off this is cattle country :)
And then there was no more forest...
Eat frog legs and escargot instead, that should fix all the beefyissues!
Crickets r not bad with chili sos

Never had frogs, but I have eaten snails some time ago. I'm mostly veggie, but have some fish. Gave up meat nearly 30 years ago and don't miss it.
steem marketings sucks and will suck for the foreseeable future :D ( even shitty dlive has much better marketing )
Agree to that. The onboarding sucks too.
Highly rEsteemed!
What, me worry?
Being an individual is not in line with what the people with power want.
Put your honest hard earned money where your mouth is.
Work for it, there is no free lunch out there.
Opinions that many never want to hear as they are not in line with their actions.
Beat that if you can!
The blockchain that makes a blockchain that the masses don’t realize is a blockchain, wins!

Bring back 50/50!
Fork out STINC!
Support the BRO Sports and Gaming Network!
Approve @ats-witness as your most bestest Steem witness!
Listen to me! I can save Steem!!!
A token mechanism claimed to support investment has been designed instead to promote extraction of content value, and attracted profiteers instead of investors who would focus on increasing the value of the investment vehicle. Steem should fork out unlimited payouts that create incentive to selfvote and reduce the value of good content, via an algorithm that creates a 3%-300% of median payout structure, which also eliminates bidbots as a viable profiteering mechanism, and enable dividends to be generated by investors who delegate or invest in development of Steem and dapps that increase the value of Steem.
This would strongly push upwards on the price of Steem, deliver real incentive to curate good content rather than game curation for ROI, and fix all problems in the world today.
SMTs aren't gonna save Steem. Tokens are nice, but Steem should focus on doing one thing and one thing right. I guess this would curating and rewarding content.
Posted using Partiko Android
Yeah. When the focus was on the content, STEEM was worth more vs. BTC. We're seeing all time lows vs. BTC now. But why? We have more dApps than ever before, we should be mooning. Truth is, no one gives a shit about the dApps. It was the idea of being able to monetize your content that made Steemit hot for the brief period that it was hot. The one thing STEEM demonstrably did right at one point.
The only opinion that matters is your own - take responsibility for it.
if you had any votes tarazkp id
flagdownvote you. don't tell me what to do lolPrecisely :D
Sorry. Steem sucks. I come here every day to tell everyone how much it sucks. It was better when I got rewarded for not much and no one else did so I could sell it all and not give any value to the content creators I care about so much. Steem sucks. Give me more steem so I can feel Steem doesn't suck while I sell it on the markets and come back everyday for more.
I don't come here nearly every day. Sometimes I even try to muster out the strength to craft a post, but I don't. So the begging has definitely ended on my end.
Also, I actually did give away significant amounts of my STEEM to other, less fortunate, Steemians who needed it more than me and weren't getting rewarded.
So, yea. You can't speak for all of us.
steem is fucking doomed, and we are all going to die
Pretty much this.
SPUD was a DUD, why take readily available funds and lock it away to become unusable for long periods.
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and most of them stink.

Google is underrated for answering all questions
I would like real value update from Steemit about Mira or SMT. Instead of minor update about Twitter marketing or dowvote buttom.

I don't think that's a very controversial opinion ;)

As always Steemit is not transparent with their development.
This is indisputable, my friend (laugh)
People should try reading beyond statements, the world will survive better
The upVote DownVote is too close to each other. If only we Steemians were closer or nicer to each other and worked together we would not need a down vote. @kevinwong
Trump! Make America Great Again! Don’t down vote me people 😂😂😂

Steem has no finished dapp! All are in development
I don't believe trannies should be able to change their gender in the eyes of the law.
And legal documents shouldn't pander to people who have decided they don't like the gender they were born into by giving them more than 2 choices.

Steem Content Interfaces would be better if they didn't show all content. In fact, they should show very little and ignore the rest. Rather than market the stream of sewage, we should build a layer on top of that abstracts this layer away. The blockchain could benefit from better plumbing.

Climate change has been happening since the dawn of time, even when humanity wasn't around. It's arrogant to think that humanity has any significant planetary influence. The cosmic scale wins vs the little ants. What's next, cow farts are causing the sun to run hotter because the Earth's warming is expanding to it?
