Dear Steemit , Over 20,000 Bitcoin users are unsatisfied right now
Steemit could capitalize on Bitcoin's weakness
Today there was another exemplar of Bitcoins shortcomings when a nearly 2 hour gap between blocks lead to over 20,000 unconfirmed transactions and thousands of upset bitcoin users.
Do you think Steemit could capitalize on bitcoins rediculous 3+ hour transactions by highlighting Steem Dollar instant feeless transfers?

The whole situation is being artificially manufactured by core and Lightning Network.
They are preventing any major improvements (read Big Blocks) to be made to the Bitcoin protocol to FORCE regular users to THEIR centralized sidechain solution.
Yeah this is not helping. I'm all for different possible solutions and a good discussion but not this behavior.
Bitcoin is in a very fucked up state right now. A lot of work needs to be done ASAP.
Nice job!
