Our biggest strenght is - its impossible to shut down the blockchain. Today Reddit has banned popular sub /r/DarkNetMarkets among many users of it.
/r/BazaarMarkets is banned too.
This markets use cryptocurrency as their payment gateways and its users are well aware how blockchain and privacy work.
If we went with some marketing targetting the niche, we could get a lot of loyal supporters and new users on STEEM network.
Maybe some reddit promotion banners would work or twitter.. Give ideas in comments.

You are missing the reasoning behind why those bans occurred.

With every ban they only encourage the decline of their own centralized systems.
Correct me if I am mistaken but as far as I know there is no law that obliges any US based internet company to delete free speech off of their platform simply because it doesn't conform to some kind of social standards that nobody even knows who defined and what the standard is.
I compare it to two people having a discussion and one of them sticking his hand on the others mouth because he doesn't like what is being said, he has no damn right to do that and you best believe that can result in a violent altercation.

sorry but copyright take downs will be one way to take down stuff, steemit inc has had to take down just like one page of stuff its a short list maybe a few dozen posts and their all bollywood movie links and reposted pictures stolen from some photographer who sued steemit inc pissed that someone else was getting paid off their work'
But yeah the blockchin wioll always hold the info so u can just make ur own front end
now the witnesses CAN refuse to deal with certain info but you can ALWAYS do this on Golos hahaha or make a steem fork that is all about hosting sketchy darknet market stuff :D

no. they can't. not on a highly visible publicly accessible blockchain. FOSTA is in legal terms vague and overly broad. its a fucking sourge to free expression and horrible legislation. watch the admin machine spin up in high gear and the angle workers make a fuck ton... again. No to censorship No to banning No to prohibition PERIOD. but until we learn this its going to get far worse.

Agreed, this year more people will move from all these platforms. Mastodon is an interesting micro-blogging solution I am looking at, would like to find a solution that has tokenization built in.

I like the idea, but over time, I fear gaining too much notoriety/infamy for being the go-to marketplace for illicit goods will ultimately cause blow-back and will get us the wrong sort of attention. I'm not convinced the expected loyal following will offset the potential damage to the brand. Besides, we want users that are loyal to the platform, not just loyal to a convenient marketplace - what happens if/when that goes away? They will leave if that was the only motivation for joining. I'm quite libertarian in this regard, just worry about the future of the platform, that's all. Some things should stay underground and out of site, IMO

The whole purpose of blockchain is freedom so if you want to sacrifice that in the name of good branding you're missing the point.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

No way! It is just a valid worry friend. If I had to make the choice between branding or a freedom-loving blockchain, I'd emphatically choose the freedom loving blockchain. If you think any government will simply watch as you overtly (emphasis on overtly) break their laws, flawed as they may be, then you sir, are missing my point. This is a good debate though!

No doubt governments will try to act, but if you rest idle because you're afraid of government actions then you're letting them win without even putting up a fight. Blockchain platforms are ideal for dark web information and if its truly decentralized they won't be able to shut it down.

Again, this is an extinction event, not just for the oligarchical banking psychopaths but the social media barons as well. They are going to eat their own limbs and appendages because they are all connected to the same beast that Bitcoin is attacking. They are going to starve themselves of their own user base to kowtow to the party line, thus extincting themselves while all the intellect and content of substance comes to Steemit.

If steemit had set up a marketpace, we'd easily replace them. But there is no marketplace, and there arn't any subreddits - so trade is hard to do on this platform.

Wow.. this is big news. I kind of saw this coming honestly. They shut down r/opiaterollcall a few months ago. There are a few others like Chicago anything goes which is even crazier. It's literally just people posting what they will sell to people in their area.
How do you think the Steemit community would react to this a movement attempting to bring that community here? I personally would support it.

Since its creation, blockchain is accepted as a worldwide legitimacy technology. Recent bans and controversies related to major social media companies are creating a big gap between the users and the networks. These news stories have created distrust in the market, where all those services based on the blockchain are gaining confidence from its users, such as Steemit:). Blockbasis tries to push this positive trend within finance and transacting, allowing users to send and receive cryptocurrency with just an email address. The blockchain allows Blockbasis to keep user and transaction data secure at all times.

I send messages via Twitter to people who are being banned at an alarming rate on platforms including Reddit, Facebook and Twitter. I tell them about Steemit and most have never heard of it. I've noticed that I've been getting quite a few grateful replies lately as the censorship problems have increased. These people are desperately looking for a new platform and Steemit is the answer.

Well I think the first move would be to create and foster a community around a new Steemit category, could be called DarkNetMarkets to keep it simple. Then spreading it through the darknet forums themselves would be a good move. And then maybe you could do a post once the new category is ready and offer to spend all the Steem received from it on some ads.

On a side note, I'm new to steem but it seems like creating new categories like creating subreddits isn't a very strong feature. Seems like its not as straightforward and easy to build niche communities on here compared to reddit.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it
The writers like you need the steemit community. By doing so you can succeed in providing us very good information. I am proud that I am part of this society. I read every article you need. And indeed I responded very much to you and your articles.
