RE: STEEM: 3 Years To Change The Path Of Humanity
i read a lot of your posts on the benefits of steem. i agree with some of it. But is it me or are there other community members who feel that it would be nice to see the business vision being communicated clearly?
There are lots of wonderful people in this community who could create a successful business model in no time and share it around with the rest of us.
right now, it feels like that developers are hard at work on fundamental technology. i completely argee that the tech itself is rock solid and i commend the people who have worked on it all the way from concept to reality.
but somewhere there are too many visions of steem floating around to make real sense. i know that none of us have answers. but we dwell on it. for example, i have a view of what Steem should be doing and i captured it here
are we in the phase of "let us build the roads and they will come?"
maybe there is an excellent vision out there with strong justifications that i am not aware of?
i confess that i may not be privy to anything significant about steem, but i would love to hear business models that would enumerate potential revenues, profits, run rates...
if it already exists, then i would love to see how i can make small contributions to it in terms of assessing it, suggesting changes, etc.
is this something that needs collective effort to develop? if so, let us create a forum to address it
To start, we know the development team is not great at communication. That said, there is just not one vision. Blockchain is a collective intelligence going many different directions until it finds it way. Steemit is just one application...it might or might not be relevant in a few years. There are other applications which have a different vision. What model ultimately wins? We shall see. With so many being created, there will be a lot to experiment with.
In the end, users are not going to care about STEEM nor the vision of it. What they will care about is the application they are using. If that fits the need that person has, it is a site that will be frequently visited. The fact it is on STEEM will not matter to the individual.
I sense you are trying to centralize the direction and vision when it is decentralized. You can look at it as there are thousands of visions, or there are none. It is all subject to whatever anyone wants to create. The collection of all these developments is what will be the overall vision. It will be morphed into as opposed to consciously developed.
