 We Should Know By Now, First Doesn't Always Mean Better


Steemit if you didn't know was not the first to try building a social network integrated with the blockchain or cryptocurrency. It succeeded and surpassed what the Devs thought it could be by not only  getting off the ground but also by  gaining enormous momentum with the platform and coin (Steem) the adoption in a short period of time, is just incredible. unlike the rest Steemit has made a huge dent in the Blockchain social media, lets hope it keeps making dents! 

Let’s have a deeper  look and compare Zapchain and Steemit, where as Zapchain was going the right direction till it lost its title, and see why Steemit is dominating we have  some late comers with Ethereum . 

Building A Fucking Strong Foundation


Big buildings have a strong foundation and so does big internet companies you wouldn't build ether of these with a crappy foundation that could collapse  if something insignificant happens?  

Zapchain's first mistake was that they built their database using a backend service provided by Facebook called Parse, kind of a stupid move since, well Facebook is the major social media giant and was a small conflict of interest was there not?  Sure Zapchain was using bitcoin and Facebook hated bitcoin but still a conflict of doing the same service. Facebook pulled the plug, which made Zapchain frantically search for another service that could provide the same resources for their database. 

Steemit has a robust foundation built on a the unique and groundbreaking Blockchain. Blockchains like Steemit’s and bitcoin’s are revolutionizing and disrupting many industries like finance, insurance, government, the Internet of Things and now...social media. The blockchain is King in transparency and incapable of being destroyed.  The blockchain is the only choose @dan and @ned could have chose to build on, remember the hacks and issues Steemit  had at first it? Steemit has been able to quickly bounce back from any hiccups encountered from these issues.  Many others would of collapsed if not for the blockchain. 

Getting Tips Or Getting An Income? 

Zapchain’s reward system is plain tipping. Users can tip posters (blogers) If they like what they read which I have checked it out its mostly not even a blog just one or two sentences. Maybe another reason why it fell. Besides the tipping you can even send micro transactions on the side for them. 

But that's all, no income just tipping working hard for your posts and getting cents? might as well go to some satoshifaucets! 

Steemit selected a unique route by selecting to truly create a specialized cryptocurrency with funding your wallet like properties. Bitcoin wouldn’t have been a horrible choice, however they wanted to distinguish it to its own purpose.  Steem came to power, With Steem coin it self and the Steem Power you may reap the benefits of the surprise that's compounding curiosity - the identical factor that savvy buyers use to create actual wealth, in an investment loans. such as the billionaires do.

So we can all be millions not so fast billionaire is a couple years away. 

Corps vs Google like companies. 

Zapchain your typical Corp, where Steemit is like a google company where employees are the ecosystem.  With Steemit, you’re truly capable of develop your rewards by contributing and including worth to the positioning. 

Steemit as king content social media Blockchain killer!
