RE: Making Steemit Communities Work

in #steemit7 years ago
I fully agree with that and I'm wondering if there are any ways to bring real value to those tokens. Right now there isn't much value in having them.

The value from the tokens right now the way I look at it come directly from the steem upvotes that can be gotten in return for the tokens. Unfortunately, this is such a small part of the coin valuations that it's quite ridiculous. Steemmonsters / DEC are probably the best example of having tokens that actually have some value. It does all remain linked to the popularity of the game. I guess it will go up and all the way down again one day but that's fine. A game like hearthstone also has that right now.

I agree with you ... to some degree. I'm an example that regular people can build reach and solid follower base. However it is surely very difficult to achieve anything and get any traffic and most people will fail.

Right now it's fairly easy as Steemit allows you to empower yourself by buying some SP, being part of upvote groups, and using bid bots that actually give a return. 5%-15%. This makes posts at least look like they earn something decent. All those options will get a lot harder with the reward curve/ 50-50 curation & Downvote pool. I fear someone really needs to get lucky now to be inside the club of people that actually get curated. Also, I fear many SP holders will leave. Bid bots and the ones that lease SP for some passive returns will have a harder time since people will downvote the ones that use them while having more SP yourself won't matter as much.

Amazing goal. Honestly I would love to help if I ever had a chance.

Thanks right now it's a matter playing the waiting game to see what happens with the SMT's and HF21.
