Las Vegas and Steemit is a 24 Hour Lifestyle, It Never Stops ~ Charles Fuchs

Las Vegas is so similar to Steemit... I lived in Las Vegas for over 15+ years and we went through many problems like the recession, lack of visitors, growing pains, traffic problems etc etc and many people said it was doomed but at the end of the day it always proved people wrong.

I remember when all the "Naysayers" had told Steve Wynn that he was insane a few years ago to build a $2.7 Billion dollar Resort/Casino called the "WYNN". He was going against huge competition and the "haters" said his new ideas were just going to fail.

He wanted to too "Disrupt" what all the other casinos were doing for decades and wanted to do things differently. Now it's sitting here dominating the whole Las Vegas Strip and became one of those most successful casinos ever.

The similarities to Steemit are Similar.... Dan and Ned had visions to disrupt the "Social Media" game and created Steemit. They were one of the first people to attach a blockchain to a social media site and in my eyes they are "Disrupting" the game.

It's going to be very hard for new competitors to enter the market and start dominating right away. Steemit are one of the first to market and its going to be very hard for new competitors to catch up where we are currently today. 

You see, Steemit is new and the vision is there. Yes, there are a few problems here and there, that's totally normal for anything that is new but look at where we are today, people are getting paid on Social Media and great content!

I can see Steemit becoming one of the biggest Blockchain Social Media websites in a few years.

So with that being said, Steemit potential of being a powerhouse are currently right in our faces and if you don't see that... I don't know what else to tell ya. 

I see huge things happening to Steemit in the next 6-18 months with Millions of people. Are you here to enjoy the ride, if not... you are going to regret it for a very long time. 

Have an awesome Tuesday and "Keep on Steemin"! 💞

You sure the analogy works? Steemit is like Las Vegas because many come expecting to make a fortune, but in reality it is a rigged game and only the house ever makes money. The little guys are playing a rigged game and always lose their entire stake on average. That would be the negative reverse way of looking at the analogy - which of course all us little guys dont want to be the truth

STEEM On!!
DaveB

Vegas Changed, many people who visit don't even gamble anymore, its all about the experience lol

Keep on stackin :)

This is such a good post .Your post make feel like i just want to steemit all day long.I can also see steemit far in future and ill be there with you guys........steemit for life

I've been on Steemit more than FB, Twitter, and Instagram the last 2 months... like you said steemit for life lol

You have stacked numbers on here quickly like Cool J has stacked barz since the 80's.

I think I should just give you my name, You been Stackin major stats lately :)

I think I am just muddling along daily doing what I usually do LOL.

#StackinPizzas

i really hope steemit will go mainstream and will never disappear!

Check out the alexa rankings... movin up fast :)

Disrupting the fuck outta the social media game
💥💻😎💯👥👥👥👥👥🖕🏽
Grateful to be a part of the disruption!

Best use of emojis I've seen all day 🤣🙌🏼

I guess you have the 24 hours grind instilled in your mind from a young age by living in Vegas.

There is no sleep over there everyone is partying hard or if they like you grinding and hustling :)

I'm definitely in here for the long term and I'm glad I found Steemit so early @stackin. People in a couple of years time when Steemit has million of users would wish they had joined earlier haha!! :)

Long term sounds great to me 💪🏼💯💯

Looks like Dis is Ware Da Party At!

Is OK if we call you "Chuck"? ;-)

The #1 Steemit party central... "Chuck" is my vegas name lol

Everybody is like "wow bitcoin used to cost one dollar, I should have bought it then..."

...now Steem is one dollar but the same people are naysayers. They just need some patience. Five years from now, I can't imagine the potential value.

That makes tons of sense, no idea how so many people always pass up on good opportunities all the time :)

I agree 100%. It could be a little more user friendly lol But I love it here.

I'm all in on Steemit, and I'm sittin with pocket aces. lol

Steemit is like having 4 A's haha

yea it is. especially once you start figuring it out

Great post upvoted and resteemed😃

Thanks @jaquith! :)

Bravo friend! Well said! I am excited to see where Steemit goes!

Straight to the top :)

All speculation, in my opinion... straight to the top 😀

Disrupt and follow through. Great motivating post @stackin!

STEEM ON!!

YES! You're the best @gringalicious :)

I'm in it for the Long Haul.....posting everyday but I'm also concerned about the current price of steem. I know a lot of people are hoping it will be $10 by the end of the year. I am too, here's hoping anyway.

Same here @jeezzle... I'm not concerned at all at the price of steem, its cheap. lol

Are you back there right now for a bit? You know some people are planning a meetup there the next few days, a couple veterans right????

Get your brother and his pizza over there man!!!

Stackin Pizzas and Steemians son!!

Nice, I don't think the pizza will make it there... ill eat it all by then lol

I respect that broseph

LOL

Did you say people are meeting up in Las Vegas? I am here right now until Thursday. Would love to connect and meet up with people, let me know. Thanks

All I was sent on this was this info, which was vague and no time/date for sure sent, sorry man...

https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-kPkzXbQT/events/242728798/

Its cool, I am already back in town. Had a great time in las vegas. Was a great hypnosis convention! Thanks again for being cool in general and for trying to help me out. Hope your doing good irl ^_^

I am doing the best I can brother.

You are always so nice to me.

I like that.

(:

You are doing great, I admire your kindness & perseverance that you have.

You deserve it, like receives like ^_^

Im agreeing with you on this :] I can wait until there is also a twitter and instagram version ! ... ( with the already youtubey version) ...
When I visited Las Vegas 4 year ago, i was left a little disapointed, mainly due to the fact I built it up to be this overwhelming beyond imagination place in my head.... & it was ... dead( as in too quiet!!!)... which was weird to me also!but that also might of been that I stayed in circus circus!
Apart from all that I didnt win!!!! :]

But maybe just maybe still been in the realms of "one of the first" here... , may have its advantages for me down the line !!!

Hav a nice day/night thought provoking man!!

They are currently working on a few phone apps :)

Vegas is pretty busy during the weekends, no one wins in Vegas haha

Thats brilliant !!! .. A twitter type blockchain would be revolutionary xD

I definitely agree that it will be harder to establish a brand on this platform as time goes on.

The thought of $10 Steem is absolutely frightening for me at this point because it's going to be that much harder to become a dolphin! Definitely not trying to miss out whats to come, when all I had to do was work hard!

Let's keep Stackin bro bro

I always told people that you don't have to be the first one to do something, just before 80% of them. I would just set some simple goals. For example: by december, become a dolphin with 5000 SP. You have 4 months... Keep grinding my man, you got this.

Thats 100% doable! I've been thinking of new ways I can generate more streams of income, and I think I might start driving for lift and uber!

Thanks for the advice and support Stackin!

steemit has the first mover bonus as far as I know and that should be huge.

Great post!

Now, I have an off topic question...why are some posts at Steemit getting hundreds of Upvotes and yet their earning is zero?

Here is an example: https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@craig-grant/bitcoin-change-life-for-the-better

Those are bot vote.

Yes I see huge things happening too. I keep telling people about Steemit, writing and commenting. A way of life.

Yes! :)

I agree with you. Yes, there are bugs but it's normal like everything. Steemit has a huge potential!

The potential of steem is huge :) ... Steem on!

It's Dudes like yourself and Jeff Berwick that have made this such a great place.
And you're right Steemit is like Las Vegas, I love em both.
Steem on buddy.

Thanks bossman @tremendospercy, I see huge opportunity right now for steemit :)

Agreed, I used to think I was late getting here but now I realise I wasn't late I just wasn't the first.
Millions more will come in the next year and then it will be massive.

Nice btw your doing so good :)

Thank You... Steem life :)

"I can see Steemit becoming one of the biggest Blockchain Social Media websites in a few years" ... So, you think is the right time to invest and buy? Great article @stackin loved it!

There will tons coming in 2018, however steemit has a huge one year advantage :)

Welcome steemit 🙌🏼

I convinced the STEEM blockchain won't fail at this point. The community is too strong and this tech is too good!

Now I just need more steem power lol

Great shot of the Wynn; beautiful sky.

Thanks for bringing that positivity.

I had to get the perfect angle lol

Yes steemit will be the biggest social media network on blackchain technology , glad i'm here from these early days , as steem train pick up speed

People like you and I will make Steemit Great :)

Thanks a lot

You know when they say "the plug" Steemit is that plug for everything . I did not even know about Steemit 2 months ago , now it's like an addiction, I've never been so addicted to any social media before .

I was reading Stellabelle blog before of how she talked about the Steemit platform and how Dan wanted it to be , and how it's not . We wanted peace , spread Philosophy. People spread others work , that doesn't make you rich . What makes us rich is useful comments and interaction. Then you stay stackin

So inspiring m, the people here aren't just awesome! 💖

Thank you for being inspiring as well .

Steemit is on a one way, non stop, ride to the top people!! Let's buckle our seatbelts and live the moments.!! 😎 peace out @crypto-expo

I got my seatbelt on and I'm ready for the ride :)

Oh yes I am here man!

There will be winners and losers alright, the losers being the ones without tickets on the Steemtrain!

I'm trying to give out free tickets but they are distracted 😳🤣

You can lead a duck to water...

🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤦🏼‍♀️ in 3 years time for these people!

“Skate to where the puck is going, not where it has been". That's what we are doing with Steemit!!! Steem On bro!!!

That's what I like to hear! Weird, Vegas just got a hockey team this year lol

Vegas with a hockey team? Wow, you guys are really stepping it up!

You are like a Steemit ambassador. I love it

WOW, I can't say that yet... I'm still new to Steemit haha

I will actually flying out to las vegas tomorrow for a hypnosis convention I am going to ^_^

OH OH... Buy me a drink lol jk :)

Lol I accidentally wrote this while my girlfriend was log into her account. In Las Vegas right now drinkin at this place called island time floats. You still live in Las Vegas?

Ok, read your post, and agree. But I'm interested to know (since I am new here), what do you think, what is the "last train" or last moment to join steemit, and be a success? And by success I mean nothing serious, let's say to have pocket money and some control over the content of the platform..

It probably wont ever be too late. The barrier to entry is just super low right now. Later, it will be a lot harder to get noticed. I think in the future you might even have to buy steem to get it. By then steem will be way more expensive as well. People are giving up now while steem is new. Imagine how hard it will be starting with a billion active users, and steem at $100.

You have a good point there, and here I thought I was too late :)
Thanks for the answer, it really means a lot!

Anyone can have success, it's never to late... I got in here 2 and half months ago. I just look at it as another social media platform and all the earnings are just extra 😀

Great info as always fam. #respect I'm not getting on this train late like I did crypto. That haunts me, but I'm not one to cry over spilt milk. Hindsight is always 20/20.

So true... don't want to show up to a party when everyone is already there 😂

Real talk, join the party or get left behind!

I'm at the party, just waiting for all my guests to show up lol :)

I love encor/Wynn top hotels on the strip! I don't know if we are missing out on steem cuz we are here ;)

One of best place to visit in Las Vegas... we are all considered veterans on steemit lol

I agree with you here, I remember all my friends starting to use facebook and I was still stuck on hyves...Didn't like facebook, Now I spend more time here than I do on facebook, Still trying to get the hang of it here but I love the fact there's not much drama here, I am PROUD to be a STEEMIAN!!!

I remembered so many people wanted to stay on Myspace than Facebook in the late 2000's then couple years later asked, where did everyone go haha

There are 3 kinds of people - those who say it can't be done, those who make things happen, and those who always seem to wonder what happened.. I love connecting with action takers!

good post..

Very true! I like the comparison because you really have to believe and see the vision in something before it takes off. It took a min before Bitcoin had success!
