Maybe part of the reason I can't be bothered to post much lately is that I have made more money doing my daily quest and selling the resultant reward cards than I make in a week worth of posts.
This week I sold a card on the market and received 39 STEEM. My posts, regardless of content net me something like 3 STEEM each. It would take me 13 posts at this level to bring in the same amount of STEEM that one card sale made.
I don't see STEEMit, the social network recovering with the alt market. I don't see the engagement that we used to have, the excitement is gone, and people are just left trolling each other for the scraps of votes left out there.
I don't know if Voice is the answer. Of course I will give Dan's new toy a try, but my expectations are not great. From what I can understand the token will not be on the markets for people to buy and sell. At least at first. So where does the profit part come in? I don't get it.
I do hold some EOS, so maybe that will give me a leg up in the sign up process. Who knows.
Anyone got a good reason to be optimistic about STEEM these days?

Homestly I think that the success of the social media section will rely on altcoins like the pal token. I think these new areas for engagement will help the platform continue on. Now whether or not the team can resurrect Steem with new ideas while these other platforms help that is up to them. I really just enjoy the community here mainly the precious metals community but have branched out to others.
And the only responses you've got are from bots. So true! :D
