as i know half year ago steem was at ~$0.2 so ye thats was huge opportunities, now again steem at $1.2 its again nice chance at current realms;)
plus steem is in white list of regulators.
I like idea to be able to pay with steem for any kind of items, koreans already selling many items in steemit, so hope trend continue. The best part every month more and more content is published in steemit, and more and more people come from search engines;) With time we will be bigger and bigger.
