I find the confidence to invest in STEEM for one single reason - it actually has a real world purpose and real word adoption....
Apart from bitcoin others are still struggling to get real world action , cryptokitties that get so much press is currently sitting at 258 daily users , one post in STEEMIT can easily get more engagement then that..

Steem monsters could crush that... son as the battles start, soon as people from the outside world know we got it up and running... booom
