ok lets be realistic and compare apples with apples:

[all the top Cryptos/DLTs are using dPOS, all of them (except Tron) are build by Dan Larimer]

from all the dPOS Chains, Steem - since Larimer left, has improved zero in scaling (obvously without him, they dont know how). ... meanwhile, Eos scaled to 34,6 times! the peak performance of Steem.

For June Block.One has announced some big changes, they have patented "Steemit 2.0" and it will be crazy: Facebook history transfer (via JSON-File), Fingerprint + Facelock instead of complicated keys, a universal basic income to onboard new users

(each year a Eos Smart contract unlocks 10mln token = 54Million Dollar and 200 $ million at ATH for free use), they use unique user identification (proof of life) = no self-voting. They even have a patent for a control mechanism for the presidential election in 2020, something Trump is looking for and if this is not enaugh, Dans father Stan Larimer (also involved in blockchain) is a rocket scientist and they have launched a satalite-node with a falcon 9 from SpaceX to get out of regulation zone. They are moving to Washington DC to cooperate with regulators and govermet (sad but necessary), according to forbes CEO Blumer and Larimers net worth each exceeds Steem whole Marketcap. They have billionair Investors like ex-paypal CEO Thiel, Novogratz, Pierce

and Steemit Inc. ? has laid off 70% of staff, changed some cosmetics to the condenser and included adds because steemit.com has 120k running cost per month only for amazon hosting and no revenue-model to compensate this.

our strength is clearly not the tech, not the mechanism but the existing (but shrinking) community. The value of social media is based on the number of active unique users. This makes bootstrapping them so hard. We have ca. 40 blockchain based alternatives and all of them suck because they have no users = no heart and soul. It's not too late, but we shouldn't be ignorant.
