RE: We Will Reach 300,000 Steem Accounts TODAY!

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Great but it is the 5m and then100m mark that will be exciting. And if steemit doesn't start offering clear investment information about interest rate and what people get for voting etc then another social site with financial upvoting will over- take steemit. I can't believe reddit doesn't have something like this under development. The difficulty of getting up to date information from the site itself is appalling. I like steemit so I want it to fix this. But in the meantime Ive started powering down as the lack of correct factual information on the site makes it hard for me to trust the founders and when I describe the misinformation to friends outside the crypto space they all say it just seems very fishy and to get out before I'm left looking like a fool. Jerry if you actually read this perhaps you can bring this and my longer post https://steemit.com/steemit/@katythompson/to-the-founders-ned-and-others-quick-wins-to-make-steemit-less-complicated-for-newcomers about the same topic to the founders' attention.

Sort:  

There is a rebranding in the works, I'm sure all of that information will be part of it.

Well I jolly well hope it does - there needs to be a tab that says in black and white what investors who steem up get, under what circumstances and what people with no steem power get under what circumstances. And if the rules change it needs to be clear what they changed from and to and on what date the change came into effect. If the changes alter the financial attractiveness of investing they should not take effect for 12 weeks which is the time it would take someone to entirely power down if they don't like the changes.

Sure, we should just have the SEC regulate it. Careful what you wish for..

Do you think this is why STEEMIT has been in beta all along ??

Where can we get more infos about that rebranding?

In the Steemit 2017 roadmap on page 12, you will see information on the re-branding of Steemit. The main reason is to differentiate the Steemit blockchain, Steemit company and the steemit website. Here is the link :) https://steem.io/2017roadmap.pdf

Thank you for the link, I will check it out. :)

You're welcome :)

The principal! He will give me TP! I would hate for my bungholio to get polio....Where I come from, we have no bunghole.

Steem is the blockchain, STEEM is the token, Steemit is the website and Steemit Inc is the company. Why rebrand?

To segregate the business functions. Although they have something to do with each other, all users will not be "savvy" enough to realise the difference in their purposes.

now you have some truly valid points.
it'd be good to have more information on the exact interest rate and more info easily for the people.

didn't know about the rebrand coming as well. any news of when it will happen @adept?

that was spot on katy, i noticed you don't have a profile picture. would you like help making one?

Thanks - its on my to do list. I think I know how but if I get stuck I'll come to you for help.

It's now great time to buy extra STEEM :)
