RE: Marteron - patron saint of internet socialising
Smartsteem and OCDB already decided to go for manual curation. Cheers for those guys.
Absolutely agree with what you're saying here m8 🙂 it's a brave New world... but honestly what steem needs. Even those who ran the 'vote buying services' are now I think realising that if honest curation returns to steem before the next bull run, the influx of new users are going to boost steem back up in price. The truth is that we all (and I mean steemians big, medium and small) should be attempting to make this place work 'proof of brain' rather than 'proof of game'.
Facebook made a billion dollar valuation because of the value of such a massive network. If steem starts to look like it was envisioned as being in the Whitepaper, then we can attract that level of network... I truly believe that. Long ways away, but still a possibility. The only quandary, in that universe ad space on early adopters blogs would be worth a bomb because of eyes on. I'm not sure I could do it. I've always hated adverts. But then again I hate being poor as well 😂
P.s. I love the doodle man! Quality art 👍
I somehow feel that I need to communicate this in each and every post (even though I haven't :) That the system is working and has three years of experience doing what it does makes it stupid to throw in the trashcan just because there's some that think of the place as free gift shop. We need to get our noses back in the track, and then yes, it just might be a place people can use instead of Facebook.
Thanks :) Actually I am here to make art, not downvotes. There's just this enormous cleaning that has to be done before we can return to the old chores.
