Art, photography, making stuff
Music, video, creative writing, entertainment, plus more. CCC is a lot more than what you mentioned and I think that's worth mentioning, since there's been some confusion. That's the place curators can go to get paid to be entertained. Just need more creative/entertainer types to show up. It's not all about that quilt grandma made.
I was a bit lazy with all my descriptions and will edit to include your additions.
One of my favourite authors and video producers, meesterboom will be happier too.
Humor/Comedy as well. I saw some solid Sci-fi writing yesterday, I think. Creative nonfiction.
When I first started on Steemit, there was quite a bit of creative stuff.
A lot of Dtubers were putting out creative videos, and I prefer those over the talking head opinion stuff, but now I rarely see any, which is strange because this entertainment stuff usually draws the largest crowd. I think that initial confusion about what creative means stalled progress. I'm hoping things pick up and since I'm taking a break from posting for a few days, I might have time now to recruit a few folks who obviously haven't been paying much attention to all of these somewhat recent developments.
Do you remember a guy who would juggle and stuff and then edit the video to defy gravity and the like? His stuff was cool and attracted the votes of one of the largest stakeholders, hendrickdgrote.
I would like to see more performers and people having a good time with their work, and do agree that creativecoin is the place for them to shine.
Good luck with your recruitment mission.
Even Curie, at least when I started and for quite some time after, was always searching for that creative stuff and helping those who produce it. So many of these folks got pushed aside by paid votes though, then left once the SP well dried up. Entertainment requires organic eyes and that's one the biggest benefits of these tribes so far. I'll do my best though trying to encourage folks to return and try it out.
Creative work has seemingly lost out the most with the lack of eyes, but the tribes do offer that at present and if moderated + curated well by the larger stakeholders, will hopefully continue to do so.
As happy as a pig in the brown stuff!!
I like creativecoin very much. I have staked a bit myself but not as much as you. I actually really like browsing the new tab!
Wade into the brown stuff and get some of those CCC's :D
I still have some orders in but the price recovered!!
I caught some today but can't remember what price I set the buy at - I wish that info was inside steem-engine, or is it there and I'm missing something 🤓

What about closed/completed orders, so i can see what i bought/sold at?
Cheers :)
Here's all the open orders for #CCC

I got little CCC too yesterday! I scraped some tiny leftovers, like the Swiftcash airdrop, DrugWars dollars and withdrew some rental profits from Peakmonsters. The first token I've bought into! Will keep an eye on the price and get more if it goes low.

Good stuff. I don't think anyone can confidently say where the tribes are going, but it's a good one to curate, give out rewards, and be entertained at present.
I don't think it is. There are two things I would love, a tab for open orders and a tab for closed orders. Then it would be magic! I picked up some quite cheap because there was a dip
Precisely this! I don't often get chance to post for creative, but I enjoy a lot of the creative posts, so I'm staked more for that reason than any other.
On a side note, I can't imagine posting anything for LEO, but I do read investment posts occasionally, so that's definitely staked too. These SCOTs are working better than Steem towards the encouragement of curating.

CCC is brilliant because there are far more consumers of entertainment in this world than there are producers and I think it was silly early on when people ditched their airdrop, thinking they're not creative so the token isn't for them, yet those same people will spend hours daily online looking for entertainment and NOT getting paid to consume it. It's like they somehow forgot about curation rewards, building up stake, and earning more and more, for sitting on their butts and having fun.
I really think a lot of people don't fully understand the idea behind the tokens. It can be overwhelming trying to figure all of them out, so they bring them back to what they know. I may yet sell some of my airdrops, if I really think I'm not going to find a use for them. Porn is likely to go for a start, as I don't even want to curate that. Having said that, there is a small part which might overlap in art, so do I keep it for that? 🤔

I won't attach my name to the porn. If you google NoNamesLeftToUse and go to the image section, majority of those images at the start are my work, but sometimes something I've voted for gets thrown into the mix. If it's porn getting thrown in to the mix, then I run the risk of having my name and those images removed from search results.
I'll hold the tokens though. If I sell, I only get a few dollars. I can find that on the ground if I look hard enough. In a few years, maybe the project will be booming and maybe those tokens will be worth something that's more than a few dollars. It costs me nothing to keep them in my wallet and ignore them. I do that will all of these free handouts. The ones I will use, of course I'll stake them. Then I get more for hitting a 'like' button. Even at current values, with everything combined, sometimes hitting that like button pays me a dollar. A dollar that can be worth far more in the future... for hitting a like button. And of course I'm baffled when I see folks sell and lose out on those potential profits. Eating their seeds, instead of planting them.
THAT, right there! Even with my tiny budget, I nabbed about 6000 CCC when everyone was dumping it... and I can't help but think that was the right thing to do. Besides, I like the team behind CCC.
I have this vague hope that the CCC tribe might actually be able to fill some of the voids left by creatives who more or less gave up on being seen on Steemit proper; as you commented elsewhere, in the early days there was a LOT more promise and hope around the idea of a blockchain based venue were artists and creatives might earn a bit from a peer supported network without having to directly "sell their art" in the process.
Yes, people "consume" creativity in HUGE amounts... just take the "micro niche" I personally fit into: the cat videos on YouTube have been watched an estimated TWENTY FIVE BILLION times! And that's just a fraction of one percent of the entertainment market..
=^..^=
There's some business stuff folks need to know as well. Producing the entertainment and then selling the tokens seven days later is much like chipping away at their venue, until there's nothing left. These folks need to know they're literally putting themselves out of business if they're not careful with those tokens.
I suppose that therein lies the rub, in some ways.
Everybody (or "most" people) seem to completely focused on making money that they overlook the invitation to make these venues a way to INVEST in yourself for the long haul. At least, that's how I am treating this...
I figure I'd still be using social media and getting pretty much nothing for it, so here I am still "using social media" but with the fringe benefit that I can treat all this as a sort of long-term "drip savings account." Whereas I can't necessarily afford to put more money IN to the various tribes, I CAN afford to reinvesting what little I do get from my posts. I just wish more people thought like that!
