Josh and I were really excited to have on Ned Scott & Dan Larimer of Steemit with a skeptic Brian Sovryn, and Ryan Singer (a supporter but with an interesting background in business that I thought would be a good addition to the conversation). The show was a spirited discussion about Steem, the upcoming curation guilds, Steem wealth distribution, and Identification/plagiarism among others. I also made the announcement that I will be performing at Steemfest in Amsterdam (y'all better go! Steemfest.com)!
Ned Scott is the co-founder and CEO of Steemit. After studying economics and psychology at Bates, Steemit CEO Ned Scott worked in traditional private equity. Long interested in blockchain technology, after working on the BitShares project, Ned co-founded Steemit in 2016 to transform how people interact with social media.
Dan Larimer is the co-founder and CTO of Steemit. The founder of BitShares and one of the world's most experienced blockchain architects, Steemit CTO Dan Larimer has been a serial entrepreneur since 2004. Dan has created businesses in extraordinary industries ranging from virtual reality to unmanned vehicle control to cryptocurrencies.
Ryan is the owner and CEO of Blockchain Health and has been an entrepreneur in the Bitcoin ecosystem since 2012.
Dr. Brian Sovryn is the proprietor and developer of Zomia Offline Games, as well as the creator and host of the newscast Sovryn Tech. His background in technology comes from years spent with multiple tech companies, the U.S. Army, and from being involved in the cypherpunk community since the late 1990’s. Brian also has a Doctorate of Divinity. Beyond that, he was a co-host of the nationally syndicated radio show Free Talk Live for two years, as well as a co-host with Dr. Stephanie Murphy on the popular Let’s Talk Bitcoin Network show Sex & Science Hour, and has made numerous appearances on other podcasts, radio shows and as a speaker at various events around the world.

What a timely and well balanced episode! That fact that a Steem skeptic like Brian Sovryn was included, and that Ned and Dan were able to answer his questions to any rational observers liking... well that was a powerful moment. Let's keep building this culture here. #buildfreedom

There has been some talk about Steemit being a scam or Ponzi Scheme, but after actually seeing these two on the video, my intuition tells me that such negativity is nonsense. Thanks to Tatiana and the panelists.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes. Right now we are in beta testing mode... I was just curious when their target was for us to be out of Beta mode and in the full on hard launch mode? If they have a target I mean... maybe they are just working out all the kinks and whenever they are mostly worked out we go mainstream at that time?

I think it's a waste when Dan and Ned are invited and other guest have no clue what steem is. Instead of asking these guys interesting question we got to hear basic stuff you can just look up in the white paper.
It would have been nice to get some questions from folks that understand steem so we could have had more profound dialog about steem and it's economy and eco system.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Keep in mind the audience of the video though. Most of the people that are watching have not read the whitepaper, so the 'introductory' questions do help to provide people with a better understanding of what Steem/it is.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Well but the questions are kind of confusing. If that is the goal there's is a better format. These were just uninformed people asking bad questions and wasting valuable resources of Dan and Ned time giving interviews.
