RE: Where Will Steem Be In 10 Years?
It’s very exciting to think about the future of STEEM. I believe it’s going to be a top 10 blockchain in marketcap sooner or later !

That competitive mindset is probably something we should try to avoid. It doesn't matter if Steem is #1 or #100. This is a cooperative space that rises and falls together.
That being said I also think Steem has great value. Just the fact that one can send money to a @username sets us above the rest. Being able to stake coins, have 4 levels of security, and decentralized account recovery also makes Steem much harder to steal. Combine this with the ability to easily tip inflation to any account we like and it's plain to see that we have a very unique platform.
I agree with you @edicted.
Competition is a characteristic of scarcity. I used your Linux analogy the other day. Are the different versions of Linux in competition with each other? No they are not. People choose them based upon utility. Even a version that has 100 users is of great value to those people. It also can result in huge revenues depending upon what is taking place on those boxes.
We need to foster cooperation if we are to evolve to the next level. That is what we seeing taking place on here.
Hi @edicted, @taskmaster4450
Perhaps you are right, but it is simply not possible to avoid competitive mindset.
Competition will show sooner or later and will do their best to take over. Which is not going to be so hard since reason: STEEM has failed to maintain trust of it's community because of Ned and lack of communication with him and rest of developing team.
I never considered Linux a way for companies/peopel to make $$$. And that's the main difference. Solutions like Steem and Steemit will bring serious businesses fighting for that huge piece of cake (social media).
Perhaps Im wrong, but I just don't think so.

Yeah, I think the same - most cryptos do not even have a use case - STEEM does :)
