RE: Looking at Publish0x and finding questions

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

I've been saying time and again that it's a massive privilege - but one available for anyone who wants it - to be on Steem. In fact, it is too good to be true - even at the current price of STEEM. I think the main obstacle to onboarding new Steemians is that Steem as it is is simply way too good. It's just got to be a scam because nothing can be that good.

The answer to the onboarding problem is to make Steem worse for the next crop of Steemians by cutting them off the reward pool. Let's not even talk about it. Let's offer a platform with various communities with nice user interfaces with delegated Resource credits available and wallet addresses attached to their accounts. Let them think you'll need 100,000 views to earn a couple of bucks. :)

We have a product that is so good that it needs to be substantially downgraded for people to believe it's bad enough for them. Meditate on that for a while.

Sort:  

Meanwhile you need to actually buy ETH to be able to earn from many a ERC-20 token, because otherwise you can't send it to an exchange to convert, and on EOS you can't even create an account without buying and then for many things you need to consume [minimal] RAM for first use to create the multi-tree for that dApp for your account. And then you run out of RAM, and just like your ETH for toll tax, it doesn't automagically recharge either.

And shit like that has 100x our market cap...

...Because they probably invest in marketing and PR 100x more than we.

I think block.one even bought the domain name voice.com for 25 million 😳

Also bought enough ram to give everyone free accounts when it comes out 🤷🏼‍♂️

For 30 million...

I agree, it is too good in many ways and, much too cheap. I actually have a post I didn't have time for last night that touches on this. Let's see if Im allowed to write on the wedding anniversary :D
