So you see Steemit (as opposed to the blockchain itself) as a career opportunity?

I see Steemit as a part of the blockchain. For some, it might be a career here, for others it might be somewhere else. With the exapansion of blockchain in general though, the possibility to learn on the ground floor now and turn it into a new career is immense.

The Dapps, that imitate now are essentially targeting low-hanging fruit in many respects but, it makes for easier transitions over to the technology for average consumers. ItLater, there are going to be new Dapps that will become more specif purpose and probably, much less social in many respects. Perhaps they will be industry specific more than catchalls.

PS I didnt know the views didnt work properly and could be gamed. Thanks for that, no one has ever mentioned it to me before.

Not many people did realise. They thought it was a coverup. If you consider Youtube views, how easy would it be for a media advertising company to game the view counter? A bank of computers on repeat, some VPNs, rolling IPs? Gangnam style... :)
