RE: STEEM is still not Steemit, even if Tron buys Steemit.
but I am happy to see STEEM and Steem back in the news (even if it's just because of Steemit)
I took a quick glance at your post from 2 years ago and saw no distinction between Steem and STEEM.
Not sure what you meant.
Great post though, I really think that the present hype could be bad if people don't put their watches on the same time (as we say in french).
Headlines are always really simple but it's quite the task to accurately simplify a community led or decentralized business.
It's good that we are at least challenged to capitalize on this momentum and it could help set ourselves apart from other crypto.
The distinction between STEEM and Steem is kind of subtle (similar to the distinction between Bitcoin (the protocol) and bitcoin (the cryptocurrency)). As far as I understand, "STEEM" is the token. "Steem" is the blockchain. You could go deeper if you're trying to tease out if it's the protocol, the code, or the running mainnet we call the "Steem blockchain", but we won't get into that.
Oh! I find that to be a useful distinction, thank you!
