STEEM is a blockchain. Blockchains are useful only when people use them. People don’t want to use them if the right of access (tokens) is expensive. So the better a blockchain is, the more useful it is, the harder it is for its tokens to “moon”... Tell me I’m wrong.

Mmm... using Steem as an example might not fit that strict description...
What I mean: a person doesn’t NEED Steem to access and participate in it - they only need tokens if they desire to hold larger voting power.
Thus, the usefulness and price may be separate issues. A lot of people here have still found Steem useful while price has been low. And given that, price may be related more strictly to speculation and/or the demand for voting influence...

and blockchain, given a good design is considerably lighter in infrastructure than platforms that support traditional currencies (at least the massive ones). think about the intermediaries being rendered obsolete. of course, it'd be unwise to shove all kinds of data into the chain.. so blockchain is certainly a specific kind of solution, probably to complement traditional databases.
@ned and @stinc have no business savy and should have taken me up on $2.00 steem token offer long ago. They would have gotten A LOT more value than the $150,000 they are plowing into the latest failed project (DOA).
The only real draw of the STEEM blockchain was to get rewarded for your content. All the dApps and whatever else is going on is pointless and overrated. Steemit INC squandered away a lot of money by turning Steemit from what it was to what it is today.
I was looking for alternatives for entirely different reasons, then found a standalone frontend to Steem called eSteem Surfer. I guess I'll be using them instead of Steemit (or other web-based frontends). I just must find a clever way to link to my posts on the blockchain without going to these web-apps.
People have been building apps and stuff on Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc without a "second layer reward pool" like Steem anyway..
This social media blockchain can only attract the most socially inept people that lack basic skills in social interaction.

It's been like that since the advent of the social media. Read reddit.
LOL!!
It doesn't really seem like content matters. You only get votes from others if you have a huge wallet, they opening it turns to a vote 4 vote
Everyone should stop eating cows
eat more beef, less emissions. i'm saving the planet one steak at a time
More methane, more destruction of natural habitats. Not sustainable at current consumption.
and there was a loud voice that said unto the shepherds, piss off this is cattle country :)
And then there was no more forest...
Eat frog legs and escargot instead, that should fix all the beefyissues!
Crickets r not bad with chili sos

I would've said "eat beans" but then we replace the corn fead cattle. So yeah, frogs legs, escargot and crickets, with a bit of sauce on 'em and Bob's your uncle!
Never had frogs, but I have eaten snails some time ago. I'm mostly veggie, but have some fish. Gave up meat nearly 30 years ago and don't miss it.
On a very serious note, it is my opinion that grazing stock should graze as was intended.
However this then doesn't allow for the consumers who want all their "rights to a choice" with absolutely no RESPONSIBILITY to be satisfied as prices will be high and the shelves/freezers won't be full with as much of a choice.
People are the problem, as usual.
& on a not so serious note, if we were to resort to beans, damn the corn stuffed cattle wouldn't be able to compete with us on the methane issues!
PS. I don't judge, just state it as I see it (and back it up if need be, that is, if the logic doesn't get through without a diagram or dot to dot!)
steem marketings sucks and will suck for the foreseeable future :D ( even shitty dlive has much better marketing )
Agree to that. The onboarding sucks too.
Highly rEsteemed!
What, me worry?
Being an individual is not in line with what the people with power want.
Put your honest hard earned money where your mouth is.
Work for it, there is no free lunch out there.
Opinions that many never want to hear as they are not in line with their actions.
Beat that if you can!
The blockchain that makes a blockchain that the masses don’t realize is a blockchain, wins!
