It's hard to deny that buying BTC would have been the better choice compared to STEEM purely from a financial investment standpoint.

But what BTC can't do and STEEM has done for the Steemians that choose to do so is give them the opportunity to build a foundation here. Acquiring a deep understanding of the Social Economic Ecosystem that is being built here and take a chance. And so many have.

Splinterlands, Steemhunt, Partiko, Nexy colony, Dtube, 3speak, appics, Steem-Engine to just name a few.

This place will only grow.
