Is Steem the "non-technical Ethereum" rival of Bitcoin? Will Steemit be the spark that starts the rush of regular people into the cryptocurrency world?

Sometimes the simple answer is the best answer. I think that in the period of time we are currently living through people want simplicity. People are not ready for smart contracts and DAO's, they are ready to be paid for social media though and they gladly will accept cryptocurrency.

Exactly everyone has always said that there was something that would replace bitcoin as an easily usable crypto currency.. and even tho Ethereum felt close.. Steemit just makes so much more sense and is easy for ANYONE to earn it without having to invest in a bunch of expensive mining equipment :/

Man that's some real word of wisdom right there!

Thanks! Another way of saying things is that Steemit is a cryto-platform for the current real world while Ethereum is a crypto-invention for the future technical world. I think Steemit's time is here, while Ethereum's time is at some point in the unknown future when many many more people are using Bitcoin.
