RE: I finally bought some steem, my first real "Altcoin" investment

in #steemit7 years ago

Welcome bro.
Yes, it's embarrassing but with so much trouble in ETH grinding to halt, BTC being costly for transactions, and BTC trouble ahead, I just sank a bunch of it all into STEEM. I think it's a good shelter, and a compelling use case for crypto, and there are not enough of those in crypto!

Sort:  

New tech will always have problems, that's part of the fun :D
I think one of the reasons steem will succeed is that it's probably the first blockchain/crypto project that is simple and polished enough for mass adoption.

You don't really need to know anything about cryptos or blockchain to partake in this project, that's amazing.

Just like the computers did not start to gain mass adoption until there were GUIs and applications for the consumer out of the box. Steemit is maybe the first successful blockchain application and we're seeing developers make apps and other sites on top of the steem blockchain to add to this.

If nothing else, it's a really cool place to be and there's a lot of interesting people and topics being discussed :)
