I feel sad we don't have a marketing team, we don't have a promotional budget and I think we are missing out on great opportunities.

I think we will never get attention when we don't upgrade our apps, market or do promotional things to garner attention.

We aren't going to fail, but we certainly aren't growing or capitalizing on opportunities.

At least the @steemhunt and @dlike IEOs got some attention. I think us being social media gets in the way of promoting ourselves on other social media. @steemmonsters is partnering with a Tron block producer. So things will eventually change. But many times I've wished w had a marketing budget and a team like Dash. Luckily we are ahead of everybody else when it comes to tech development.

The steemalliance and future foundation will possibly be able to fund these things.

That would be excellent! Looking at what DLive did, paying some influencers to join and create exclusive content would be a great move. PewDiePie has basically beaten all of DLive and he hasn't even started streaming yet:

The latter may introduce the former.

Steemit should have applied similar tactics LONG AGO - and it's not too late to learn from DLive: assign a hefty marketing budget and go out and convince (pay if you have to) the great bloggers to come to blog on Steemit!

While I'm not at all happy that Dlive up and left, it was there prerogative, and perhaps the epitome of the blockchain's version of buyer beware. They may not be the last dApp to set up shop, make some money, build a community, then take off for their own greener blockchain.

PewDiePie going to Dlive will be a big feather in Dlive's cap, and it could very well introduce all kinds of his fans to crypto. It's said it's not happening on STEEM, really, even if I'm not a PewDiePie fan, he's is/was one of the largest YouTubers. Even if a fraction of his subscribers join Dlive, that will be amazing.

However, I do believe as time rolls along, there will be other chains and even other Dlive competitors on STEEM, and who knows. Maybe a lesson will be learned from the last time.

My concern is that there really isn't enough transparency. I might write a post about this. They have not mentioned how much tokens they own and they are as decentralized as FB coin. They say 1 LINO Point is $0.012 and sell 57 points for $0.99 on appstores. Basically Apple and Google are getting rich off of these guys with their 30% cut

While I think D.Live is kinda a scam and not worth my time, that not really the biggest part of this. PewDiePie moving to a decentralized streaming service, no matter the platform, is incredible. This marks a huge movement in the right direction for dApps and also represents an important opportunity for other decentralized and blockchain-based services to capitalize on this. Just think, if Pewds released a video on his channel saying he was doing this, why he was doing this, and to come join him there, that would represent a massive reach that dApps haven’t had yet. Pewds has 80+ million subscribers on YouTube, if only 1% joined D.Live, that would be a massive spike in their user base. Steem, and the dApps that operate on it like D.Tube and Vimm need to capitalize on this and start marketing themselves to disillusioned YouTuber fed up with dealing with Google’s nonsense!

Totally true. It's good marketing. But DLive isn't using the "Blockchain" name prominently in marketing. But it is still some progress. I actually wrote bit of a quick analysis on DLive: https://steemit.com/analysis/@vimukthi/analysis-of-current-state-of-dlive-lack-of-transparency-future-plans-statistics-social-media-presence-token-economy-and-how

Oh yeah, I’m sure DLive is fully planning on cashing in on that marketing. And like I said, I don’t entirely trust DLive after their whole “Steem” escapade. However, if Pewds notices DLive then I don’t think it’s too much of a stretch for him to find Vimm as well, and possibly D.Tube for his video uploads.

Think about this... if Pewds stumbles across @calimeatwagon who dual streams on both DLive and Vimm simultaneously, it might encourage him to try out that platform as well, which would be his entrance to Steem. Then if he publicly announced he’d joined Steem, or one of its dApps, that could really bring an influx of people into the platform.

I didn't see "meh" as an option.
