Dlive, $20,000,000, and Dapps of Steem
Now, I'm mad at DLive. Not because they left, but the manner in which they did. They took a Steemit delegation... that literally means they took money from every active person on the platform. And then they left. So, people are free to come and go, but ethically I think announcing they are leaving while still having the delegation shows what kind of people they are. Immoral and greedy come to mind. Karma is a bitch... they'll get theres. Until then... they have $20 Million from an ICO so I don't think they give a fuck.
So, that's the bad news. The good news, if you didn't pay attention, is that those fuckers took $20M with them through whatever ICO they did. I don't pay too much attention to the world outside of Steem anymore so I don't know the details there... but ummmm, here's the upside.
Come to Steem. Build your business. Get $20M.
I don't want to get too hung up on the rest. I'm not sure it matters. Dtube has streaming. Vimm has streaming. Someone is gonna keep streaming on Steem. "DLive leaves" isn't the headline.
The headline is "you can build a business that can raise $20M in 7 months by building on Steem."
There's a lot of digital things to be sold. Get on it!
Dapps of Steem
I'm putting together a digital showcase of Dapps on the Steem Blockchain for November 3rd. I'm calling it Dapps of Steem. I'm going to do this once digitally, and I'm working on putting together a physical event as well. I'm shooting for right around when SMTs launch as a great way to announce to the world we have Tokens on this Blockchain and it's a great way to pool money for your business or community.
I'm hoping to get a mix of established entities on the Steem Blockchain to speak, and also give a shot to folks that want to pitch their business plans and see what happens with them. I'll leave some spots open for Steemians that want to talk about growing their individual page on the chain. If we pool that with some users and drag some NYC crypto investors to it we'll have a business building party going on.
So, save the date for Nov 3rd at 11am EST. If you'd like a speaking spot message me in Discord through minnowpond.org. I need a little more time on the physical event, but I'm planning on the last week in March or the first week in May. More to come. If you have a Dapp you'd like to showcase hit me up.
I'm not someone who usually gets involved drama of any sort, but the way they decided to go about it revealed a total lack of business ethics, in my view. I predict a bad reputation will follow their company for a good while.
esas cosas no se hacen man
$20M you say - this explains a few things Aggroed.
Be sure to include Partiko in your Dapp review - interacting with Steem has never been so enjoyable.

We can still downvote 2 post here (2 and 3 days old):

Good idea
I like your view on this but would you not think that this will make it more difficult for future projects to get the needed delegations in the first place?

Never used dlive before. Vimm really sounds good to try.
I am looking at Vimm now too. I too never used dlive
Yah, I think vimm will be cool.
This was clear and precise, your point of view is important to the community, thanks Aggy
They left not a big deal.But they showed lack of business ethics and decepted with lots of humble steemian.

This is perhaps the reason that the public is going crazy over this. People have done this before (albeit on a smaller scale) but this time it came out of the blue. Both @meno and @taskmaster4450 shed some light on the buildup and the aftermath and the more I look at it, the more this screams of 'f*** ethics' attitude.
Thankfully Steem is too big to miss a measly dapp that couldn't hold it together when the going got tough.....
