Man I heard you loud and clear.
But my first instinct is to trust in the horde mentality of the masses. Once the bull run hits (not a question of if but when) more people would flock towards the platform. People would still be coming to Steem even if a better platform is available. Simply because, people instinctively trust tried and tested than a new thing.
Although you are right on that count that a better platform might come along but the thing is that Steemit is established and by the time a newer platform gains a foothold it still wouldn't be too late. Why? We could always transfer a part of my holdings to a newer platform. So my suggestion would be to keep a 70-30 ratio on Steem and other crypto's. I think locking it all in doesn't seem like a safe option and leaving the Steem behind is not the intelligent option.

Thanks for your post during the last few days. I have been enjoying them tremendously :-)
