steem has no fees... bitcoin highest fee i heard was 2000usd
i'm not sure anyone outside of pewdiepie... and even with him it's debatable... can move a large enough userbase to another platfrom to make it a viable alternative
^
it would take him and like the top 10 channels to do it
and it would have to be the same site
@I AM ERROR ok but see the history of youtube and twitch is they started with 0 zeros
and it would have to function as flawlessly as YT right out of the gate
twitch wasnt twitch it was justin.tv
people dunno history
they forget easy
I know history
who was it who tried to set up a union?
but you're not competing with YT on day 1
you're competing with YT on day today
yeah, they started at 0... everyone starting now is starting at -100
the systems are not the same one is based upon debt and the other isnt
steem has inflation @ 10%
way different
you couldn't build a model t today and expect everyone to pick that over the cheapest car
out there which I think is a mitsubishi
yup
it's interesting tim thinks it's bullshit. it's kewl. but steem isn't simple as it looks. if you look at the code it's pretty brilliant. you can implent steem blockchain into any wordpress today. cant do that with bitcoin
and amazon prime is not competing verywell with netflix
plus steem is immuteable
Anyone getting the greay shirt? 😛
tim pool wants to delete his tweet he can
also tim launching a merch store without beanies is heresy
(yes I understand that' its diffucult) just saying 😄
twitter... why axactly is it filled with "have you seen this? did you miss that?" posts now? it's annoying AF.
you cant delete shit on steem blockchain
it's there till end of time.. unlike fb twitter, and centralized, aka, corrupt media
as journalist that is powerful tool
forget money or followers that is superficial today
if you want to interview someone in venezuela who survives of steemit lmk tim i'm sure they would want to tell their story even if just over discords
this was an interesting crticial look at steem, goes over a lot of its past problems and shadiness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HseuaDMmGo
tldr it has a lot of problems but crypto advocates like it because it's one of the few working real-world usages of blockchain technology
in the public
@angeryer nothing is perfect but the network isn't shady. You could have talked to the witnesses at the witness forum this morning.
Steemit / steem has cons for sure
For example delegated proof of stake means voting is weighted upon those with higher usd value. this causes bid bots to be economical. and thus promotional upvotes are sold
