RE: Vlog 393: @blockbrothers talked with @ned about the Steem.DAO and asked the question that concerns the community the most.
I came to this post for the title and I was surprised to see your idea of "the question that concerns the community the most." As usual with you big guys, I have no idea what you are even talking about with this new project, but did it take over smt's as a concern in just a couple of weeks? I do not know whet smt's are either, but it seemed like people cared about that for at least the last 1.5 years.
My opinion matters not, but the question I am most concerned with is when and how we will get 1M+ active people posting here instead of the less than 10K "people who matter" that we have now. It seems odd to me that mass adoption is rarely talked about. But I am encouraged by the dapps, the gambling, and the games, so maybe the crowds will come soon and bring money with them when they do.
"The question that concerns the community the most" I'm talking about in this post is wether part of the author rewards will be used to fund proposals in the DAO.
The DAO is a project proposed by @blocktrades and you can read about it here here so you know what we are talking about.
The subject of my post is obviously the DAO and not mass adaption of Steem. It is an interesting subject though and like you I believe it will happen through the Dapps.
SMT's are still on the table btw. In yesterday's radio show Steemit inc. told us that they are targeted for 2019 and will be back in development after RocksDB is completed.
I did read that post from blocktrades and the project recently, and did not understand it. I do things like travel posts and helping minnows with low rc, so I normally don't look up here. like I said, your title allured me today.
I think they want to pay people to help/work here at steem or steemit and now how should that be funded? I have not got the level of knowledge to know any of those answers.
I know blocktrades is already rich, so I'm not sure they need money and I have no idea why people need to be hired here, but if they do - just hire them and be done with it. Anyone churning out some work and improvements anywhere would be thrilling for us all. But again, my opinion does not matter anyway.
All I know about smt's as that they were announced to be imminent in the summer of 2017 and made the price of steem/sbd jump. 2019 sounds like 2020 or 2021 to me lol.
RocksDB <<< New one on me! At least it is creatively named :)
