[Discussion Post] What's coming next on Steem?

in steem •  4 years ago 

"What's next for Steemit?"
Well, considering it is impossible to pull your money out of this platform (no exchange still carries it except Bittrex and trying to sign in to Bittrex gets you a "this page is not available" message, and of course you cannot cash out any other way), and considering Justin Sun considers it acceptable to ban an account and seize the coins held by the user if he disapproves of a post, considering that he has managed to put a censorship regime in place that would make his Chinese cousins proud (all content even mentioning another blockchain is hidden), I'd say the future of this company is a handful of high-rollers will pocket what can be squeezed out of it quickly and leave the broken and withered husk to rot.
Steemit is already so shady no one in the West will touch it. The platform is dead and the company is linked to its vital signs.

Thank you for your comment. Maybe you should try getting your information from a source other than the Hive blockchain.

  • Steem is still on Ionomy. Also steemscan.com allows for conversions between Steem, Bitcoin, or Tron.
  • Hive also removed users' funds (I am one of those users, and I have been a loyal member of the community since 2016). Steem had an excuse to remove funds because those users were actively running witness nodes meant to sabotage the blockchain. My father and I lost our funds because we voted to keep both groups in a stalemate (and therefore maintain decentralization).
  • A lot of what you have said about Justin Sun is a propaganda narrative pushed by the Hive people. Most of the trending articles are in Korean not Chinese, and that is because the Korean community lost their funds on Hive (because they voted with the exact same strategy my father and I used). The Korean community has a lot of stake now because a lot of the biggest stakeholders left.
  • Steem does not censor anything. The Steemit API censors some things, but the censorship is not at the blockchain level. Hive also implores censorship outside of the blockchain level (see the fact that I am on two blacklists there because I posted several articles on my own blog complaining about the stealing of our funds, and everything I post is now automatically downvoted)
  • Hive intends to steal users' funds again hence the 30 day cool down before users can vote for witnesses. This gives the power brokers time to remove any threats to their control.

Steemit is already so shady no one in the West will touch it.

I was born and raised in West Chester, Pennsylvania (That's in the United States [which is in the West] in case you are unaware), and I have been here much longer than you. When you first created your account, I had been here for more than a year. I believe that Steem is the future. I'm sorry if you disagree, but Hive is much more corrupt than Steem, and time will show that Steem has greater potential for growth.

I am not going to vote for your comment because you showed no understanding of any of the stuff going on Steem. Your comment could easily have been written six months ago, and it would have been just as misinformed then. I invite you to look more into this matter, and perhaps respond with more current and relevant information for an upvote; even if you still disagree about the future of Steem.

I am downvoting this comment because it does not contribute to my discussion (See the items which I listed in the article to discuss), and it is down right rude. This kind of rhetoric may be tolerated on Hive, but it will certainly not be tolerated on my post meant to generate constructive discussion. Please do not comment on my blog again unless you have something constructive to say in a respectful manner. Any further uncivil and irrelevant comments will also be downvoted.

I don't think you understand how to transfer coins out of your STEEM wallet, so I explained to you your options in another comment.

if you want to withdraw steem than you can visit wazirx

It doesn't matter if there's no way to send STEEM tokens to Wazirx, now does it? The "sell" button on the Steemit wallet leads to Bittrex, which isn't accessible from most countries, and the "market" button leads to Poloniex, which is in the same situation. And since the function of transmitting STEEM tokens to a wallet address anywhere other than another Steemit account was hardforked out some time ago, that pretty well closes the door on that, now doesn't it?

yes you are right my friend , it doesn't matter at all because of the reason that you gave. actually steem is considered as part of rapid listing initiative and that's why it's withdraw and deposit is disabled on many of the platforms. but then the last option is TRADING , if you have experience with trading you can trade steem for btc or usdt or any other currency.

What are you talking about? You can send your STEEM to a number of different crypto exchanges directly from your STEEM wallet. You say Bittrex isn't an option for you, there are a number of others that are including Binance, Upbit, Huobi, MXC, Probit, Ionomy, Gate.io etc.
