The ultimate dream for me would be a Steem blockchain that is so big and widely known that Steem tokens would be an acceptable form of currency (all the time).

Some people believe the blogging part of Steemit is primarily to distribute the coin. Once it's in the hands of enough people (hopefully spread far and wide), markets to spend the coin should develop organically, and blogging might one day become a side feature.

We already have #steemgigs for freelancing and @minnowbooster for lending. So maybe that's a good start, especially considering our small user base (25k daily).

On the other side of things, we have projects like http://view.ly that use the blockchain for purposes other than blogging. And Chainbb forums and soon @Zappl for different flavors of social media.

So I really look and dream beyond what we have now. I just hope we can get there! xD

Sometimes I feel that people forget this platform is only over a year old. What it has achieved is simply mind-boggling compared to other projects.

Simply looking at the development of all the apps, the different front ends, the daily user growth. The perfect blockchain that works fast. A social network site that is connecting so many people and education so many about crypto.

And It's all being paid for by the blockchain. It's not costing anyone a cent. I see a very bright future for the Steem blockchain.

Yeah, I am too looking forward to the future of blockchain. And I think it'll go on the moon until it keeps paying people for their work. Because people nowadays no one care about social media presence, it is all same on steemit and facebook, people care about money. Someone who pays have the power to draw crowd. Weird but it's the truth.
Anyways I like your channel @gigafart. I'd love to see you on my blog. I hope you'd like it for sure, that's a guarantee. :)
