RE: Steem: Digital Asset Report

in #steem6 years ago

Why are they having so much trouble attracting and keeping users on steemit? My guess is a lack of advertising... but there must be other reasons as well.

Sort:  

Lack of onboarding in general as the FAQ doesn’t really help and there is no initiative to keep users engaged like in centralized platforms.

There isn't initiatives on other social sites to keep users engaged... they show up because all their friends are there and that is why they stay...

  1. Lack of advertising.
  2. Poor token distribution due to greed and crypto still being in its infancy.
  3. Perception of unfair reward distribution.

There might be a few other things like poor onboarding, lack of tutorials and explanations, etc.

True, though many are just derivatives of the same overall problem. My main issue is that there has literally been nothing done to correct the issues, and for the life of me can't understand why. Steem once ranked #3 on coinmarketcap, today it is #51 and will be outside the top 100 within a year or so at this pace.

I dont know man. Im just a dude commenting on Steemit. Lol.
Why Steemit.inc fucked up is anyones guess.
What i do know is that we need to pick up some slack ourselves.
Stuff has been happening lately. I have high hopes going forward.

What gives you high hopes?

Mira, steem engine, the twitter campaigns, stinc social activity, steem monsters, IEOs, etc.

I wish I shared your same enthusiasm about the things you mentioned. None of the above excite me regarding adding significant value to steem.

What would?
You cant reinvent the blockchain.

Hype is the driving force of crypto right now and we cant afford hype.
What is anyone in crypto doing that you would say adds significant value to the project?

Something like this would have been nice for Steem...

EOS continues to get real world partnerships while steem does nothing.

Being able to pay developers millions in the case of EOS is a good start. Actually building out and promoting steemit.com is another. Launching smts is another. Partnering with a legitimate company like they alluded to over a year ago is another... listing on coinbase or bitfinex.... soliciting investors for steemit.com and raising money that way like most startups do as opposed to selling steem daily would also excite me... shall I continue?
