RE: Question: Why will people buy STEEM?
I think to buy STEEM is to buy a future possibility that if one day the Steemit social blogging site is to succeed, one would like to have the steem power to influence the blogs via upvotes/downvotes.
Think of it, you can essentially influence the masses' opinions.
Could you actually use voting power here to make money somewhere else? Like getting visibility for your own business or product by voting?
Again, when and if Steemit became popular, businesses would want to have a presence in it too. That is when voting power can translate into monetary value.
