Thank you for writing this... awesome-- resteemed!

The thing about Steemit is that we have something very few of the alt coins have: "Differentiation." That is, we have a "story" that's different from all of theirs. It starts with the "soft entry point" into the crypto market... easy and understandable for most people on the street.

Because of that, we have the opportunity to "add features" that makes this even more alluring to potential newcomers.

We're actually better than the other alt coins because we have this social content platform, and more stuff in the works. But were also better than Facebook, Medium and twitter because we have our own currency that works just like money, and they don't.

Maybe these are just your "private ramblings," but they are super important because you-- and I, and lots of others-- represent the user base here; the people who can actually drive Steemit forward. As I keep saying "code" doesn't build communities, people do.
