RE: Steemit Retrospective for July

in #steemit5 years ago (edited)

Selling less steem would be nice! :) Just kidding, well sort of. In all seriousness you guys seem to have gotten a lot done and things seemed to have changed for the better over the last couple months. Keep up the good work!

Also, any chance we could get on Coinbase any time soon?

Sort:  

We'd love to get on Coinbase, but that's entirely up to them.

Does that mean you guys have done everything you possibly can to get listed there? There was a rumor floated that they (Coinbase) wanted a listing fee that was refused to be paid?

Coinbase would have to build in support for Steem (and a liquidity pool) and all that to make it tradeable there right?

They would only do that if Steem were judged to be top rated... so it would have nothing to do with paying some kind of listing fee?

Yes that is my question.

Yes, I personally polished Brian Armstrong's dome, and still nothing.

Must not have done a good enough job...

Coinbase would add Steem if it would gain as much traction as Eth for example, so perhaps just aim for improving the product...

How does steem do that? It already is faster and and has no fees by comparison... Ether is changing to be what steem already is.

Well if people are this clueless, it's no wonder we're doing so poorly. Ethereum is already much more than Steem, there's no comparison, only now it'll also be as fast as Steem, which will leave people wondering why the hell use Steem in the first place as it does me, as a developer. The speed and no transaction fees has been the only reason I'd choose Steem over Ethereum and that comes with negatives like developing on a chain that's mismanaged, abused and isn't really decentralized, rather close to oligarchy actually.

This chain and its people need to wake up and face the reality or sink with the ship being delusional.

Selling less

or sometimes buying back the steem they’ve sold, since cost reduction has been a success and personnel costs also reduced I believe after the 70% cut. If everything looks so good.

They won't be buying steem any time soon, if ever.

Then how do we HODL

You don't, as the price trend suggests. The cow is being milked dry as we speak

:(

But after being dirt cheap for some time, it'll jump back up perhaps as some see the opportunity to make some money but the system we have here is flawed, just see Trending, Haejin and Bernie.

more like 90% of the stake are abused from what I've observed, not only trending with bidbots, inc, H and B, also many others, just they probably have smaller smake, or they self vote not as obviously.
