RE: A case for live chat on Steemit
Yeah, there was a chat that was linked to the Steemit web site, but it wasn't on the blockchain. I guess it was probably some sort of open source software hosted on AWS or some other cloud provider. No rewards were paid out.
For your idea, I guess some sort of custodial or delegation service would be needed. I think that the complexity of keys and accounts is a barrier to adoption here, so it definitely makes sense to me. I guess that having an app that seems similar to things that people are already familiar would speed adoption.
Personally, as time goes by, even just creating a regular account/password is becoming more and more of a barrier to me for many web sties.
Interesting. So an adjacent site could be created that doesn't necessarily works on the blockchain. I'll order the ideas in my head and then will try to present them in a post.
But as a former journalist I REALLY want to solve the problem of the financing: you either don't have it, or have it with strings attached. And I have a feeling that answer can be found in Web3.
