RE: STEEM vs. BTC Analysis - Get Ready for the STEEM Tenthing (not Halving)!
We came to Amsterdam using Bitcoin converted from SBD and Steem. Plane ticket, hotel and all expenses using our Wirex card. It could be that we never have a Steem based economy but as long as we can build many tools and apps on the Steem blockchain we will be moving forward. I believe we are heading in the right direction. It is cool seeing so many new faces coming to crypto who would have never showed up if it wasn't for Steemit.
Totally! My wife is among them and has her own bitcoin wallet and exchange account now. :)
So glad to hear stories of people doing real world stuff with STEEM. Unfortunately, I also have to recognize how much of that was paid for by huge early investors like @laonie. Until new value is created within the Steemit ecosystem directly by people selling their own work, etc, it may be hard to avoid the stigma of one person holding the bill for someone else. But I guess that's how it always goes when it comes to crypto market value.
