RE: 10 Simple Steem.io Update Requests!
I visited Steemit.io many times before creating this account (it took me an entire year!). There was always a reason or two why I never signed up, despite being interested in the project.
I think you hit all of them (and more).
The outdated info in the white paper (inflation and staking period), has repelled many investors. I know, because they always mention it!
It was fairly hard for me to get an account. I was so frustrated and ready to give up. I had a lot of interest due to my investments in Bitcoin. Now that Im in I agree Steem is one of the best Cryptocurrencies for your money. My money is primarily in Bitcoin however as a new member to the Steemit community and getting a inside look I have to say Steem offers content that other cryptocurrencies do not. I like BTC because it is a stable financial cryptocurrency but I see a whole different category of value in Steem.
Glad you got in! Steemit is just reddit + coins on the outside. But it really is a much more ambitious project than that. Yea it’s a blogging contest, but already there’s a lending market @minnowbooster and it’s used for p2p payments #steemGigs.
It’s achieving bitcoin’s dream...
Also, btc is headed for a potentially catastrophic hard fork in a couple of weeks. I’ve sold all mine to be safe. (Whatever ‘safe’ means in crypto xD)
GREAT screen name.
Yeah the outdated whitepaper is a problem coming up so often lately!
