This story is ANCIENT.
You go anti-consumer like this, you're dead.
I remember a paragraph in a boom written by taleb stating that a significant number fortune 500 companies are already dead.
Google may be one of em.
The consumer always wins unless the government gets involved.
And that's not to say the customer is always right.
isnt dtube solving the monetary issue with crypto?
It's that hating your consumers is always wrong.
How does that solve the money issue?
microtransactions when you upvote things
It solves the problem of Patreon being a gatekeeper, but it doesn't generate revenue.
steemit
It's only a matter of time before a Patreon competitor arises, or Patreon snaps out of it.
.. It's just.. gotta be named something not-retarded.
Like Hatreon.
The fuck were they thinking
Where does the money come from with steemit?
Seriously.
it was a sarcastic name, i liked it
Guys, if you create a Patreon like service, or know someone who knows someone, name it after a Greek god of partying.
Just give it a name that can mean anything you want.
That's why Ray Croc took over McDonald's.
Do not call it an inside joke
"We call it Hatreon because some thinkpiece said that Patreon should be called Hatreon when calling for it to get rid of Lauren Southern!!"
"We're so funny."
Isn't that company just a middleman for Stripe?
Like they aren't a financial institution themselves.
Stripe wasn't always part of it.
" All of these websites read and write content to the Steem blockchain, which stores the content in an immutable blockchain ledger, and rewards users for their contributions with digital tokens called STEEM. Every day, the Steem blockchain mints new STEEM tokens and adds them to a community's "rewards pool". These tokens are then awarded to users for their contributions, based on the votes that their content receives. Users who hold more tokens in their account as "Steem Power" will get to decide where a larger portion of the rewards pool is distributed."
But where does the money come from?
Because Steem tokens can't be used to do fuck all.
And if something isn't a medium of exchange it isn't money.
not sure, i kind of get the impression the miners are taxed to fund it
Like if I'm a creator on Steemit, how do I use my tokens to buy food?
looks like you can trade it, so you can sell it for either dollars, or bitcoin, and then sell the bitcoin
just guessing
since it has a market value of $0.866673 right now
cant see why it would be any different than any other altcoin
so a friend of mine got permanently suspended on twitter for basicly the most minor offences ive ever seen
