RE: STEEM Is Not A Social Media Platform
I think one of the biggest barriers for businesses with Cryptocurrencies in general is the public perception and general lack of understanding how it works.
It will almost take communities to be built on the social side first to establish a potential customer base that can then use some of their stake to make their purchases. Whilst the end game isn't the social side, I feel it needs to be strong in order to nurture the commercial side when it comes.
Hey, @sparkesy43.
I think we're more or less in agreement that there is a need for more people, and more people with earned STEEM. At the rate we're going, though, it's going to take a while before that's the case, and we seem to be dependent on too many things for any of that to happen anytime soon. And, it seems like that's all people are aware of and concerned about. The social side, and all it might entail.
I think if we zoom out, look at where we want to go, and focus more on that, we'll get there, rather than marching around in circles like we seem to do. :)
