RE: Why Bitcoin Is The Sebastian Shaw Of Currencies
Is Steemit going to be the gateway crypto-currency as @dollarvigilante has talked about?

Everyone has always said that when Bitcoin becomes so easy that grandma can use it, it'll go mainstream. But the problem is securing Bitcoin, which the average person cannot do all that well, unfortunately. :/
That being said, Steemit doesn't require much knowledge of crypto-currency to gain access to it. That means, even grandma can make money on it. So yes, it'll be the gateway crypto. I just hope that people diversify some of their funds into bitcoin. :)
The solution to make it simple for users to keep their crypto-coins safe is not to make them rely on a central website like steemit.com
:·>(although the steemit.com webserver does not store any private keys/passwords, but rather in the user's html5 local storage, thus being almost a full local app, there is no guarantee that this will always be like that in the future. steemit.com may change this behavior any time for whatever reason, and it would be hard to notice for the user. you have to trust them. trust that bitcoin was originally designed to eliminate.)
Security for the mainstream is here. It's just not evenly distributed yet ;) #Airbitz
Yes i agree, also there is a lot of other sites that are popping up which are Crypto based so i think its only a matter of time. Facebook, Twitter etc will have to change the way they treat creators of content in the near future otherwise they will be left behind or disappear totally IMO.
