RE: steem price getting down from the first to appear in poloniex until August 26

in #steemit8 years ago

100% agree. We're in Beta, everything will be tweaked eventually. The founders/whales doing the dumping will (likely) stretch it just to the "no longer sustainable" point, then change the structure in the exact way all of us little guys are clamoring for. They are brilliant, know what they're doing, and I forget which one was with Bitcoin in it's early days.

Sort:  

They are obviously clever people, but this is very tricky technology to get right. Bitcoin has had to be tweaked along the way. I find the technology interesting, so I want to see where it goes. If I make some money then that's a bonus

Agreed. Then you'll maybe love my article https://steemit.com/steemit/@ibringawareness/would-you-be-on-steemit-without-the-financial-incentive-for-the-record
I love the platform, can't believe it's all free, and will hopefully be using it 10 years from now even if the payout structure goes completely bust.

I'll have a read. We really cannot know how long any internet service will last, but I assume that the Steemit blockchain is a permanent record that anyone could make available. When Tsu ran out of money their site went dark. I can export my posts, but I'd need to process the data if I want to put it back on the web. I may look at doing that as a little project.
