Attendance Steemit on par with early Facebook
Decentralized social network Steemit reported "unprecedented traffic" that are comparable with what was obtained in the early stages of development of Facebook and Reddit.
According to the statement Steemit, at the moment, users of the social network every day put more than 21 000 new entries, and the number of votes for the positions exceeds 70 000. This is comparable to the early activity on sites like Facebook and Reddit.
However, the project team believes that they can do better.
"We hope to be able to offer more than Facebook and Reddit. Improving user experience and offering them rewards for their time online, Steemit gets a good chance in competing with the largest social networks. We still have much to do, and we have space for growth, but in General, we see this system as something more than just a new social network"</strong> — said CEO Steemit Ned Scott.
According to him, developers and entrepreneurs are seeing the benefits that can use recorded in the blockchain Steemit data, user records and other content.
In the nearest plans there is Steemit adding new features, including the ability to exchange encrypted private messages and alerts. You will also add buttons that enable you to subscribe to a user. It should attract users of such social networks as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, accustomed to such generic functions.
the <strong>"the diversity of the blockchain Steemit is a natural progression. Private messages are perfect for a decentralized system and will give users the same features they can find in, say, Twitter. The function "follow" will give the opportunity to get alerts when a favorite author publishes a new user record, and will work in exactly the same way as in Facebook. All of these features are the pillars, which hold today's giants of social networking, and in the coming weeks they will appear in Steemit"
