If you were running the show, what would your next move be?
Get a focus group together of all the various aspects of and users of steemit and see what their wants, needs, and desires are. Take this information and work toward providing first the needs, then the wants then the desires.
There are lots of different groups and users of steemit. There are the internal business people, the bot owners, the bank/loan owners, the game runners. The developers those not working for steemit but looking to build programs/tools to take advantage of the blockchain. There are the bloggers those that want to use steemit to monetize their content. There are the users, the non-monetizers, the on occasion poster, primarily content consumer/voter (myself), and then the pure investors. I am sure there are other kinds of users.
Steemit needs to learn who it's customers are and then they will have a better idea of what they need to do in order to move forward.
I think that's a pretty great plan. I don't know if they've done focus groups, but they can be hugely helpful, especially when you don't know who your customers are. I think most people feel that Steemit Inc is out of touch, so that would be good for them to hear about what their customers actually want from the blockchain. Good idea!
