Finally hit over 1000 Followers. I will be posting occasional Blog posts for the first time in months to prepare for the impending Explosion in Steem's popularity after Communities & HF20

in #steem6 years ago


I have finally hit over 1000 Followers thanks to @ackza who has been accumulating these followers without any need for me to make Blog Posts. @ackza just uses my Posting key to make comments and upvotes and so helps curate using my account, allowing many of you to benefit from the Upvotes, and allowing me to earn curation and my own comment author rewards. But finally I will be posting on my regular Blog instead of just leaving comments, and exactly WHAT I will be posting will be a wide variety of topics but one common thread will be a sort of Steem Digest, where I will try my best to feature projects I see that are underrepresented and not on or talked about on trending. I hope to bring Bitcoin holding crypto investors to steem by bringing attention to critically important topics, like Communities and SMTs and their use cases (like multi billion dollar volunteer industry) because we will turn a lot of investor's heads when we show working software demonstrating the possible addition of Smart Contracts to steem. We need to increase the ability of someone on Steem to attract investors with blogs, videos, stunts, gimmicks, business partnerships/sponsorships or even serious presentations for why one should buy SP. which we can present to consumers in paid video ads, the same way ICO ads make a case for buying their new altcoin for BTC. What I am arguing for is the use of these same WORKING tactics that marketing and advertising people use to sell "investors" on cryptocurrencies, tactics steem doesn't use, but if we actually got people excited about buying, holding and even making passive income from Steempower then maybe we could make Steempower so trendy that the current 78+ million Liquid steem out of the approx 260+ million total steem, will eventually get powered up until only just a few million steem are left liquid and not powered up :) That is a big dream of many of us, to ensure that so much steem is powered up that there is less liquid steem than Bitcoin, and that all new steem would need to come from the reward pool, and most of that is vested/staked/powered up steem anyway so steem can become quite scarce.

This is why steem is so valuable, we have so little new steem but just enough to keep it circulating with authors being rewarded, users making posts about steem to make more people interested and thus creating new demand for steem. And since only a predetermined amount of new steem is created every year at a shrinking inflation rate, the price should continue to go up as long as new people have a need to buy hundreds or thousands of steem and existing stake holders don't decide to all collectively power down and dump steem. Since only a set number of steem is "minted" or "mined" by the witness nodes every year, then the market can price this in and discover a much higher price per steem token if more users join and compete over the approx 742k+ Steem that is paid out in rewards every week on this blockchain. So for example, if 10 million people suddenly joined after HF20 in just one or two months, adding to the current 1 million, then there will now be over 10 times the current demand for something which cannot have its supply increased any faster than before those 10 million people joined! Many clever forward looking people will realize that if they just buy some Steem to power up into SP to get a head start that they will have so much power over a potential media empire for the rest of their lives and this platform does have a huge chance of becoming a massive media empire the size of the multi hundred billion dollar Apple Music venture, or Netflix etc. Massive multi billion dollar media conglomerates are showing us that the media that humanity produces is a massive digital archive of wealth that is commodified, bought and sold, and it IS worth TRILLIONS and so yes STEEM blockchain marketcap can represent more than just a cryptocurrency but a blockchain full of content that will become the world's next youtube, instagram, snapchat and much more. This massive collection of media will be reflected in the price of steem just like the massive Apple music system is so profitable that it helps the Apple Stock price to be as high as it is.

Since I Finally hit over 1000 Followers thanks to @ackza who helps curate using my account, allowing many of you to benefit from the Upvotes, and allowing me to earn curation and my own comment author rewards. But finally I will be posting on my Blog from now on, Ackza will be helping me write some updates, and I will then highlight the work of some steemians that need some attention. I am also open to suggestions on things you think would make for cool posting ideas, but @ackza already has a list of potential ideas from using this account as a bid bot to running contests to using its upvotes as prizes in a game, and we will for now just try to use this account to make special Steem Digest Posts to feature and promote important projects that arent getting on the trending page.

This Article was written by @ackza and edited/Approved by @tytran to celebrate @tytran account reaching over 1000 followers and to encourage others to invest in Steempower even if they don't have the time to use Steem very often. Many people have full time jobs, families and just can't realistically or effectively dedicate the sort of hours to steem that I, @ackza the author of most of this article, can. But that shouldn't stop someone from creating a steem account, buying SP, maybe making an introduction post but then to make it a stress free casual experience, someone in this situation of having invested in SP but too busy to use steem can simply make comments, upvote, and allow someone else to use their Posting key to Upvote with, leave comments and resteem with so they can gain you followers and extra Curation rewards in SP and even liquid author rewards from comment upvotes, and I am able to earn then regularly for this account! I hope to make @tytran more money from author rewards than he could leasing out his SP, and I also would like to experiment with perhaps setting his account up as a Bid Bot to earn him liquid money from his stake, OR use his account to write special posts which tytran can promote with bidbots using his SBD, which he will then earn back from profits of the posts payout, because I believe I could make great posts concerning a few different projects, and this way I can promote everything from my ackza account while also giving @tytran publicity on the front page!

I am confident that Steem NEEDS to see a few projects on the front page of trending and those include my need to find developers for an Steem version of Crypto Idle Games like Ether Shrimp farm, but imagine Steem Shrimp Farm, and then imagine Farmville or Sim City but working on STEEM. These are the sorts of projects I plan to flesh out and promote to trending.... Decentralized blockhain games on Ethereum are so addicted but cost too much in "gas" to pay for transactions, while steem has free transactions, no smart contracts but we can replace them with our own private system, like @steemmonsters and I just feel like this account could be used to promote MANY ideas and his SBD could be used to create a weekly cycle of trending page posts! If I can make @tytran a good extra income he can give me a cut and I can create a turnkey business with video tutorials that teach how you can convince people to invest in SP and then use it to earn them money, while they do nothing but let you work, and collect their paychecks! I feel like it is a win win opportunity and if we could even create a Patreon clone type Steem Front end to streamline the process of buying crypto to buy Steem to then power it up and then delegate it, like a https://solicitingpower.com but with extra features now that would be useful for on-boarding steempower investors. We really do need an SP investor funnel to attract and seduce Bitcoin holders into buying Steempower to then set it up as a passive income machine!

First of all really congratulations for achieving the milestone of 1000 followers and i hope you will achieve more great heights on this platform and in life.

And i want to appreciate that you shared the keys with @ackza to curate deserving accounts and that's really an kind gesture and you both are doing amazing job. And now good to know that you are planning to post and we are waiting for your posts to go through all updates.

All your words clearly reflecting that you are eyeing towards the growth of the Steem and all your approximating numbers are really visionary numbers and if that kind of numbers are achieved by this platform then for sure the value of Steem will going to jump off. And current market is Red Market and many speculations are running in the market and we have to just HODL, and future holds something great for Steem and Crypto Sphere as an whole. In months possibly we can expect the SMT's, Community Updates, Hard Fork and Steemit Mobile Application, and then possibly we will fly to the moon.

Thanks for sharing this post with us and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂

wow thanks for the great comment! I just wish I had more time to post but until I retire and or my children go off to college, or take over the Account, @ackza can continue accumulating Followers, comments, Steempower and SBD for my account :) Steem Accounts may end up being passed on from Father to son, mother to daughter, with the SP never being powered down more than a few percent to possibly live on, with the full stake being passed on from generation to generation just like the Rockefeller and Standard Oil fortune which the First John D Rockefeller never spent but kept as Shares in his Standard Oil Company which he transferred to his son in many small and large chunks over stretch of time towards the end of his life once he felt his son was ready for it. Perhaps the accounts will be passed on via private key in a special ceremony from one family member to another, or maybe there will be a period where they power down to then power up their sons account while they are still alive. Cyber inheritance and Steem inheritance via future smart contracts are a very interesting subject and EOS will probobly be best for that sort of thing.

Anyway yes I will continue to support steem based projects and resteem upvote people I find helpful or interesting for Steem's sake... but I MUSt start a series of trending weekly posts I will use my liquid steem to pay for, (since I make the money back 7 days later) and I will make some nice weekly digest posts about all the best projects I see as valuable and maybe @yensesa will get a very big mention because I just believe it is a shining beacon of free market startup crypto success. Yensesa is an example of what is needed in all developing countries so that steem can actually be used and spent as fiat since most developing nations already have a digital fiat system that is accepted just like their paper fiat and is in fact preferred over possible counterfeit paper fiat money. When dealing in xapo style sms text message fiat transfers you dont have to worry about counterfeit paper money, and so we can actually see that developing nations are actually LEAPFROGGING over the west where we still have to use banks and dinosaur exchanges that make you wait days and days to get your fiat but in Ghana they just get their digital Ghanian cedi fiat money on their phone via a text message in just seconds after sending the steem/sbd!

This is something I feel needs to be promoted and explored. Money is feared by most people who just dont see themselves worthy of handling large amounts of money, wether its steem cash or bitcoin and we need to change peoples mindsets and make them realize that if you DO want to make money you CAN now on steem and unlike ANY time in history we actually have ALL the tools we need to start from $0 on steem to $100s and then $1000s of US dollars worth of income every week if we start working months and months towards our goals... If you actually just know what your doing you can start making hundreds or even thousands right off the bat your first week or even your first day but for most people there is a learning curve so let us show people that MONEy is FUN to use and to develop with, and steem makes money transfers so easy you can actually build websites that allow for the EASIEST payment processing ever via steemconnect!

So anyway when we advertise @black-man 's @yensesa hopefully we can get @ned to create a special Fund dedicated to helping create startups focused on fiat exchanges in more developing countries like a sort of Steemconnect which also has a fiat gateway whether that be based on SMS text xapo style or even using debit cards, the end result will be more and more nations around the world equipped with the infrastructure to handle millions of new users wanting to cash out steem/sbd into their own respective fiat cash. The more countries have @yensesa style exchanges that allow people in developing countries to get fiat Money on their phone via SMS directly from Steem/SBD then the MORE chances we have at seriously importing a BILLION or more people from the worlds legacy social media, into steem... and we can if the worlds developing nations have tools that allow them to EASILY get SPENDABLE cash they can USE from their SBD or Steem (or any crypto at that point thanks to @blocktrades ) and the secret here is that you can MAKE MONEY by becoming an exchange for steem/SBD and as steem gets more popular and expensive you can amke more and more in fees which people do NOT mind on spending when you help them get real cash they can spend in their hands from steem/sbd and THAT is the sort of stuff I would like to post to trending!

These Steem global infrastructure initiatives are the things Steem should be focusing on at teh same time as building SMTs etc. We must prepare for a world where there is a lot of demand to get fiat from steem/sbd and a lot of people in por countries who need simple tools that don't take all their money in fees or make them wait weeks for verification or withdraws to a bank etc etc. Setting up a GLOBAl network of Steem/SBD to fiat exchanges for allowing people in developing countries to sell and buy steem/sbd for their local spendable fiat currency so they can buy food and pay bills, now THAt is what will guarantee our Billion+ global users and THAt is what I want to be posting about for trending bid botted articles, THAT is what steem NEEDS to actually see and be focused on to prepare for the future! Building our infrastructure and getting it ready!

Really great to go through these insights and thoughts, and literally speaking how you said Steem accounts can pass through generations and if not power down then they will be free from financial issues and it's sounding really practical.

And greatest thing about Steem is, it's open for many opportunities and it's just matter of time and if anybody have any Startup ideas then they can implement in Steem Economy and possibly many can associate them and so many Steemians have high stakes and if they associate with your idea then their time to time upvotes can become funding for your Startup.

Yes, Steem is showing that money is fun and I've joined with zero investment and now i have approx 350 Steem Power which i earned with my Hard Work and got returns in the form of rewards and i just powered 60%, and now my account worth is $650 and it's just matter of prices, and account value can jump off anytime.

Good to know that you will going to start the promotion of your post and that will be effective because your post will be included with mentions of some great people who are contributing in good things and this way their work will get more exposure.

Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

wow VERY nice comment man! glad to see it!

Im gonna go give you some upvotes just for that :)

and yes i agree, hodl during the red,m and look, EOS is up and leading a recovery because its over 15% voting is done and main net is up and running and we will have a lot of amazing eos projects launching soon and that will be the new home for ALL the best crypto!!!

Thank you so much. And yes, EOS will open wide opportunities in the Crypto Sphere and recently EOS started the EOS academy where future Developers are learning the Road maps of EOS and through that idea developers will work on the Decentralised Applications which can bring great impact in the Economy. 🙂

Congrats @tytran on this major milestone. Honestly at some point I was thinking your account was another account that belongs to @ackza . This is so nice of you to share your keys and @ackza is also doing a good job by using it to vote and support real and good projects.

Big thank you to you both for supporting Yensesa since we started. It has been amazing so far and I am very proud of what we have accomplished together. Allowing people to easily pay pills with Steem/SBD, send money to family members and all the other amazing things. We will be launching in Nigeria this month hopefully and after launch the biggest community basic income project on Steem ever for the African community. Where all our profit and transaction fees will go back to the community. When you have sometime to get your hands more dirty, do let us know and we will be happy to talk more.

Congrats again and all the best

~black-man

Very comprehensive post! Congrats on your milestone.

We need a STEEM mascot. Potcoin has Dennis Rodman, STEEM needs someone bigger haha

I think Steem's mascot will be the first celebrity who ends up posting on here and getting thousands of dollars everyday which we will gladly give him as he will be bringing us so many new users that it will push the price of steem up, i am talking the sort of Kylie Jenner that will actually bring us millions of her followers someone who has 100 times more followers on any social media than steem has total accounts! When we have someone like that join, and we will, then we WILL end up with this sort of "mascot"

I mean those Workout Twins who say "BitCone" seem to be taking a liking to Dtube and have been pretty good mascots for now! But I know what you mean

and the truth is, as soon as the handfull of top bitcoin stake holders decide they own enough cheap BTC they will start buying up again and pushing price back up to 20K and over, and that will push STEEM back to $8 as well and then OVER to $10 as BTC is at $25 or $30 and then BOOm we will see INCREASED interest into steem just like we had back at its all time high , it also was steems all time most popular time according to google trends and alexa etc , and its gone down since the price has gone down, totally understandable and natural! only the smart will keep posting and accumulating! AND BY THEN a big celebrity will be joining to try getting a cut of the by then 8 million dollar reward pool given out every week on steem which is much more interesting than the current 1 million dollars worth of steem and sbd given out every week, so imagine when people are making $10,000 posts instead of just $300 posts... by then we will see the big players trying to make an easy buck that way and we WILL see the big celebrities joining in then! By then it will just start to snowball and grow and self sustain like reddit etc. This is the magic of user submitted content. Mixing blockchain and reddit like social media was the most genius idea, user submitted content with a DPOS crypto currency thats generated via consensus based inflation and its actually worth something! So much of Steem is staked up that we end up with a pretty nice system that can create money and actually keep it pretty stable compared to zimbabwe or other times people have tried just printing up whatever they wanted. Our system is so much better as we only print up enough new steem for the market to buy at the prices its used to, the priting of new steem doesnt effect its price, the price is moved around because of mostly Bitcoin! Hopefully we will decouple and steem will move according to steem investors users and not just bitcoin users.

eos is leading the rally today thanks to its 15% voting completed so now we will see if EOS will lead this market back to a bull market like ethereum did for all of crypto last year! Ethereum was the new tech that made crypto interesting again until cryptokitties hold up, and you still needed bitcoin to buy the ethereum , and you needed ethereum to buy EOS LOL but now youll just need bitcoin to buy it as everyone rushes to buy EOS.... so eos will still help bitcoin AND steem! EOS will rise the ride of all crypto!

The Hodge Twins ahaha. Cracks me up with their Bitcone talk lol. Love the way you think man. Hopefully we'll get someone BIG that will join the platform and that will attract millions of more people to join.

I agree once Bitcoin starts picking up the pace things will move forward. I'm very happy my precious EOS just got its main net activated. I feel like this is the catalyst the crypto world has been waiting for. We will see an epic bull run. STEEM EOS BITCOIN will fuckin rise up like phoenixes. Amazing coins that are already changing the world, especially the third world countries where their fiat currencies are worth next to nothing. Keep stacking my man!

Congratulations @tytran on 1000 Followers. I think that you an @ackza might look at doing a Daily Rewards Channel just like @rewards-pool.

https://steemit.com/steemsilvergold/@rewards-pool/introduction-to-rewards-pool

You could even Copy what @rewards-pool is Currently doing by giving out 8 Full UP Votes everyday to STEEMIANS that either Delegate SP to your pool or do a monthly STEEM payment for entry into getting a BIG Voting Splash on Their Content everyday. I would Delegate to be part of that if you and Zach were running that like @rewards-pool does................

Good idea! ill think about it! Always happy to hear new Steem Business models that are already proven to work by other players on steem!

Thanks for the comment, heres an upvote :)

Congrats on your 1,000 followers,more to come!
You've been so good like your friend @ackza
This your post post is so benefit, no don't you and your friend care for steemians

Congrats @tytran for achieving this great milestone of 1000 followers on steemit, truly steem is a valuable asset to invest in for a better future for all of us. By earning free passive income

Congratulations @tytran, you and @ackza is a wonderful team ✌️
