RE: To Be or Not To Be? That Is Still The Question! (Sharing Thoughts)
Steem is diversifying in its business without any "new" features.
We have seen many things happen, before we saw any SMTs see the light of day on Github.
So Steem has a lot more potential than what anyone ever realistically could have thought.
Not to mention the sidechains, no matter what anyone may think of the existing ones, the fact is that it works.
Again, proven in practice. Something that many other endeavours out there will never be able to handle.
We long ago beat the hell out of Visa as far as daily transactions go.
That is old news! Yet still very relevant, even if we don't brag about it nowhere near as much as we should!
It is all there, the pieces of the puzzle are al slowly but surely being arranged and very slowly & still somewhat un+surely being put into place.
@taskmaster4450 posted an interesting article which documented the growth of JSON activity on the Chain.
A couple of days ago after making some claims on steem-engine.com it was made all the more evident to me the vast amount of activity on the Chain which has little to do with blogging.
But then again, as proven many a time, it seems that there are many who believe that everything and everyone has a price!

The link seems to be lost to me, behind a login wall.
JSON does have a cost, though, in RCs.
Any link to the announcement?
the one on Medium, earlier

Thanks for the shot. Pretty big sounding news. One wonders why there is not much noise of it on STEEM.
Well, our famous EOS, oops, I meant Steem Witness, Luke popped out of nowhere with his halo all polished up!
Ned came out of nowhere with more sarcasm and absolutely no Vaseline in his message.
So, yeah, it's out there.
Guess when some private business uses its stake to sell an entire community of people from all over the world, without any communications before hand about it, then there are no smiles anywhere except for those few who took the money and are laughing all the way to the bank.
Man, how this makes for a meme about "slave trading", but that would be so non PC!
