Can the EOS version of "Steemit 2.0" replace Steemit? What do you think?

This is Dragos Roua's thoughts on the EOS version of "Steemit 2.0", which clearly states: "I really like the technical genius @dan, and our philosophy is very similar in many ways. Having said that, I don't think EOS version 'Steemit 2.0'. 'There will be a big future.'

Dragos Roua is the author of Steemit. It is inevitable that he will consciously and unconsciously stand on Steemit's position to think about the problem from the beginning, but the problem he pointed out is representative and worth considering. In addition, "Steemit 2.0" has not yet been released. As long as these "problems" are addressed in advance, the future of "Steemit 2.0" will be more spacious.

If you've been focusing on EOS development and information over the past few months, you may find a recurring theme: re-creating Dan Larimer's previous projects, BitShares and Steemit, based on EOS technology.

As a technical exercise, as a public relations gimmick to demonstrate the ability of the EOS blockchain, I fully understand this idea. I think the potential adopters can see the implementation and work of the actual EOS project. I think it is really good.

But as a business operation, I hope Dan and his investors don't have much hope for it.

Because in addition to the technical layer in any project, there is another layer of equally important factor: people. From our topic, it is the early adopters of the Steemit.com platform, from investors to authors and curators. Moving this layer is much more difficult than the mobile technology layer.

I still remember the fact that Facebook was just hot ten years ago. On many source sites, there are hundreds of PHP script sources that clone "Facebook." They have almost all of Facebook's features (of course, without huge back-end processing power) and are ready to use. All you have to do is download the script, launch a MySQL database, and you have your own Facebook site.

Have you heard the success story of building a website based on these scripts?

Actually not.

We are now in a similar situation. "EOS version of Steemit 2.0" will be just another "Facebook" clone script.

The human level is very inert. Once they are interested in something, it takes a lot of time and money to move it to another thing. Steemit.com has been around for 2 years, and although it has not yet reached a critical mass (compared to giants such as Twitter or Facebook), there are still a significant number of core users. In my opinion, we are talking about more than 80,000 core users.

This is not enough for Twitter (importantly, it is not even media), but it is enough to maintain consistency and potential. The market value of STEEM is still between 200 million and 300 million US dollars, which cannot be ignored. The money is also inertia, and it is not easy to convince investors to transfer their assets.

If you don't believe me, try to remember the ETH / ETC split. ETC is still on the market, with a market capitalization of $1.5 billion and is one of the top 20 encryption assets.

So even if the "EOS version of Steemit 2.0" has some appeal, I wouldn't think it's doing business better.

Yes, this may be a good public relations gimmick – even a necessary gimmick to showcase EOS's capabilities – but I don't think it can beat Stemit in terms of popularity, influence or exact market size. Com.

Dragos Roua This article mainly points out that "Steemit 2.0" is difficult to "grab" people from Steemit. But I don't think it is necessary for "Steemit 2.0" to grab people from other projects because the blockchain social media is just getting started and there is still a lot of room and potential. After so many years of development, Steemit has about one million registered users and more than 80,000 core users. Compared to the number of Facebook users, it is not an order of magnitude. Steemit 2.0 has many users to fight for.

In addition, as the originator of blockchain social media, Steemit has a lot of problems, but it has been difficult to return. In particular, the influence of giant whales is too large, and the development of new users encounters bottlenecks, which gives Steemit 2.0 a good development opportunity. And EOS, although the number of accounts is less than 300,000, but the user base is very good, there are active communities around the world, Steemit 2.0 can stand on the shoulders of EOS giants, get a higher starting point.

Of course, the future is bright, the road is tortuous, and it is too early to make a conclusion. The replacement of the EOS version of "Steemit 2.0" is not easy, and Tianxiao still expects it to be blue and better than blue.
