Steem rated very well according to this Magazine...
Rising Blockchain Magazine came out with some Blockchain rankings and Steem scored pretty well.
According to their recent rankings, Steem is one of the better projects out there for new businesses/companies/apps to get involved with.
In their words related to their rankings, "these protocols would bring the change to the world in 2019 faster than other protocols."
Rising Blockchain Magazine puts out periodic updates on blockchain and cryptocurrency related projects.

Steem comes in as the 3rd best protocol.
According to their rankings, which can been seen below, Steem comes in at number 3.
Number 1 was EOS and number 2 was Bitshares (are you seeing a trend here?):

Surprisingly (or unsurprising depending on your stance), Ether comes in at number 4.
What was the rating criteria based upon?
This is from the magazine regarding the rankings:
"This article reveals 10 blockchain protocols chosen by our editors which in our opinion would bring the change to the world in 2019 faster than other protocols.
The blockchain protocols were selected based on the following essential criteria:
a) the feasibility of business logic programming(the programming language and functionality of smart contracts and/or smart assets)
b) the presence of existing projects and applications on this blockchain (therefore, Telegram, Tezos and Binance blockchains were not included in the review since are still under development or have just launched)
c) global scale. The review didn’t include the blockchains which were originally created as a means of payment (such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dash, Monero, Ripple, ZCash, etc.)."

A bit of a caveat...
As you can see these rankings do not include the coins that were designed for currency purposes...
Which means Steem was basically just being ranked based on its ability to have things built on top of it, more as a fabric or platform chain.
Either way, it's good to see Steem being mentioned near the top of any rankings!

Stay informed my friends.

All news is good news especially when . . . It really is good news! Its funny to see how high most 3rd parties rank Steem yet how little attention it gets. It could be just because most of the reading i do is on Steem so it gives a biased view, but still makes me even more confident in the future of this blockchain

I think most blockchain traditionalists don't like to recognize POS or DPOS as a real blockchain. They like the security and potentially decentralized nature of POW.
Yeah, but I think they just haven't looked in Steem again after all the initial drama and others just don't like Dan for whatever reason. Everyone has there reason for projects they like and it's just a matter of who you talk to. Some just like certain projects because they're good at trading that crypto and it has made them alot of money.
Me I just like tokens that I can use and that can passively earn me money :D
Very interesting 🧐
This is constructive information that I hope people capitalize on -- those willing and able to build off the blockchain. Otherwise, if you're interested, like I've always felt my friends should be, get aware and sign up, learn their way around the space, it may have its rewards. I enjoy it a fair bit myself, and it's simply the blogging aspect of it.
Yep, there are several positive aspects to it.
This author must be a huge Dan fan.
Ha yep, you caught that as well? Though they say all the editors that work for the website/magazine were polled to come up with these results. So perhaps they are all Dan fans!
It means a hell of a lot to be ranked 3rd for blockchain DAPP development. While we can't host all of an app directly on the chain, we can host the data and ownership of resources. The code for the app itself can be either open or closed, decentralized or not.
That means we're ahead of Etherium, right? GUTSHOT!
EOS shows extreme promise from what I've seen, but it's got a correspondingly high value, even when crypto crashed to the ground. And you need to own a ton of EOS to do a DAPP on it, making it a requirement to have serious financial backing. That rules it out for a LOT of projects, making us number two for anyone that doesn't have a ton of money.
With our user base and built in communication, we might just be number 1 for many!
It's possible. That is a good point about EOS's valuation. Yes it is number 1 and for good reason, but it also valued almost 30x that of steem. If steem does some things right there is more room for greater percentage returns with steem.
Unfortunately, they continue to not realize that Steemit is not Steem. Interesting that in almost all comparisons the Graphene supported protocols are at the top; probably more due to the scalability potential.

Yep, I noticed that too. Oh well, at least it was mentioned (sort of) lol.
This post has been included in the latest edition of SoS Daily News - a digest of all you need to know about the State of Steem.
Cool, thanks.
