RE: Will Steem Go Viral in 2020?
I like to visit https://steemit.com/created/introduceyourself on a daily basis just to see all the new faces. I honestly think Steemit is the fastest growing blockchain project in the entire space, but for some reason the rest of the crypto space doesn't seem to be aware of this fact.
There is a lot of bad vibes out in the world regarding Steem. Many see it as a scam... I used to disagree strongly, although with all the vote bots, it is harder to argue these days! At least we are still seeing lots of new people join, that is good...
Have you looked @Smartsteem? They have a special whitelist and abusers are banned very quickly. I think most bots will go the whitelist route as pressure from the community mounts. The unethical votebots will get crushed eventually.
Nah. I am in favor of any bots that make an effort to whitelist/blacklist, reggaemuffin does well at this too. But unfortunately I dont think that is enough to fix the fundamental issue, which is the economic incentives. Kevin has a good explanation
The amount of erroneous assumptions and poor arguments in that article is astounding.
Really? Curators, the people who are supposed to do all the filtering and manual labor via reading and responding to the daily deluge of content produced on Steemit, are considered "lowest common denominator?"
