I'm brand new to this, so my opinion is rather uninformed, sorry. But....
- User sign up: I had to repeatedly try to sign up. I kept getting error messages, before it finally let me verify my email. I can see other potential users being scared off and giving up.
- Visibility: I only heard of Steemit from the Dollar Vigilante, I haven't seen it in other places. Is there a way to post the Steemit logo/ hotlink on other pages, and get a reward in Steem if a new user uses the link to sign up? (kind of like Amazon does but referrals)
So far, being on here has been a learning and fun experience, hopefully by thoughts aren't covered elsewhere (like the white paper- still need to read that) ;-)
I agree with you. I had heard about Steemit from a friend who actually didn't want to share it but needed help with maintaining a FB group to keep them active. LOL Funny how that worked out 'cause here I am and I'm really loving the platform.
I have read the white papers and it's really exciting to see how the developers have thought about sustainability - but as markets go, there is going to be corrections to the value based on supply and demand. Personally, I'm hoping that it rebounds a bit because my intent it to buy STEEM and sit on it as an investment. Just imagine if you'd bought stock in Coca Cola or IBM when they were virtually nobodies? Ah, one can dream.
Welcome to Steemit @saintmichael I'm looking forward to seeing you around.
