RE: Change my mind a little about individual bloggers/vloggers with a dream to live off the blockchain.

in #exyle6 years ago

i will go on the other side and say that bloggers/vloggers gonna get crushed by the dapps or forced to adapt doing things they don't like but the dapps are not exactly the issue.

Let me warn you and everyone that reads it, that i tend to write a lot so beware!

First of all, it's important to remind that literally everyone get in here in order to make money. The priorities may changed for some, for others not all, but at the back of our heads money remain in the top list.

The dapps as you mentioned too, hold power (SP) granted by delegations,investors or everyday Steemians that either believe on it, or they have something to earn from it (remember money will remain in the back of hour heads!). Because of that most of those Dapps will have a great amount of SP+ their SMTs, so they can make more things than an average blogger can.

They can make contests with more rewards, rewards users in different ways even the simplest thing, granted upvotes to community members if they do specific things for the community. An average blogger can't compete to that

In a way the same applies for every community. A straight blogger have to attract audience and he needs to interact with others. Pretty fast he will realize there are communities depending on the country-ethnicity, so belonging there, there higher chances of interaction and rewards. Then he will find out about more specific communities like the stem community and such. In a way if you think it he/she will remain in their "micro-world" because there are granted rewards and interaction.

The Dapps are taking the stage now, with more rewards and ways of rewarding so all those people will try to get in there. What i have seen and witnessed so far and only a few will admit is that the majority of the Dapps users are doing it just for the sake of money-tokens and ease.

The real issue though is the extremely low account activity. We got 50-60k of daily active users, counting the bots and the alt accounts. Also, if someone use autoving services or does any transaction during a day, he/she will count as a daily active account. Thus the actual daily active accounts are around 10k even less. Nobody does anything manually and add the bad interface to that, even the most dedicated blogger at a time he/she will search for the easiest thing to do because nobody actually reads-comment their posts but some close friends-loyal followers.

What's the easiest thing to do if you were/are a blogger/vlogger that dedicate more than an hour for a post?

Simply delegate at a dapp to earn passive income, upload posts about products that you don't care and after 2 minutes everyone will forget just to earn some easy money and tokens and upload how many steps you did today (that nobody cares, not even you) in order to catch some of the auto-votes!

You blew my mind with this write up. Exactly the true state of dapps. Am I liking it?.. it's a definite yes.
