Steem potential application stack are gigantic w/ SMTs, Communities & it's growing Dapp eco-system.

in #steem6 years ago

I cannot even begin to keep up with Steem's development anymore. So much is going now. Orders of magnitude than every before.

I the use cases for Steem continue to build at an exponentially increasing rate.

HF #20 is coming out in about a week, which fixes Steem's sign-up problems with a long list of other things.

This single update is like 20 previous updates rolled into one.

Next comes SMTs in Q1 2019.

Already I am seeing many dapps announcing their own token built on Steem. Some very cool ideas. Some will work maybe others not.

It's only going to take just a few viral Steem dapps to propel the adoption of Steem to the moon.

I see Steem as the Social Media Blockchain of the future! No other blockchain has anywhere near the number of Social dapps working, in development nor the size of our user base.

Soon the world is going to know Steem!

I'm wondering if SMTs are actually going to bring in extra functionality besides just being able to make a side coin.

You can already do quite a bit with the Steem API. It still needs a lot of work though.

I like the SMTs idea though. I guess being an ETH Lover for so long I see the power of what tokens can do for a the underlying protocol both in value and adoption of it's native currency.

Steem is ideal for Social Media b/c of it's features. EOS is probably our biggest threat but not at the moment since they have not even launched 'Steem 2.0'.

Apps like @Partiko are headed in the right direction. Very slick interface to Steem.

I am still waiting our communities though. Reddit is so popular b/c of the sub reddits.

Communities can tie right into SMTs since in many situations it may make more since for that community (hive) to have its own currency!

Steem and the building apps got to get that user experience right though. Instagram, Reddit, FB, Twitter are all user friendly non-technical.

Maybe points system built inside the steem apps is the way to go like Partiko, which can later be redeemed for Partiko Smt points or just a good ol' old fashion Steem up vote!

It's just got be fair for both the existing staker holders and the little guys coming in! It's a tough balance :-)

My thoughts exactly mate. What’s going on behind the scenes in terms of development is massive.

Price is sliding, but the future of the steem blockchain has never looked so bright. Price WILL catch up as a result. Just gotta be patient.

hi @hedge-x

It has been a while since I've hear from you so I decided to check your blog and see if you're still around.

I've noticed that you're not very active lately. having a break? or did you give up on Steemit? (hope not)

ps. your post is already a bit to old to upvote it. till the next time :)

Yours, Piotr

Hi @crypto.piotr,

I am active on Steem daily. I have not made any post recently. Only comments & resteem.

I am very longterm holder of Steem. I do not have any plans to abandon platform as Steem con't to improve experience. Looking for the launch of SMT's. I see many different communities and social media tokens are launching on Steem as we get closer to launch date.

I am very excited to see community grow.

Thank you for being so responsive @hedge-x
and sorry for such a late reply. just realized that I've missed your comment

yours
