Why be fearful?
Im out travelling and have only just last night seenthe Live feed from Justin and Ned. From what I was reading before actually watching it myself, there was/is alot of FUD going around and people seemed to be in panic, even after they had watched the chat.
Many people into Crypto just stick to one blockchain and thus only one community, but I was exploring also Tron a year or 2 back when Tronbet.io realease their token ANTE, and spent some months amongst the Tron community. I have long since anything to do with that but it was great entertainment in the bear market, but what I wanted to say was the Tron Community are also great just like the steem one is or used to be in its peak.
I cant imagine that Justin or The Tron Foundation would ever see anything beneficial to destroy the Steem token, and in my opinion Justin is just getting prepared for the Future by accuiring huge assets such as Bittorrent and Opera ect.
It was quite sad to see people getting hostile and finding ways to discredit someone with huge resources of wealth by taking the piss out of his accent, which is quite racist and very ignorant. Be fucked if any white person could pronounce Mandarin well!
Steemit needed something to happen to it
and now it has. It was always interesting to be in a chat window on a tron dapp because I had a different name and didnt ever say Imqq steemian, I got to read what people would say about it. I still have an EGG token for eggiesworld.io which I forget about!
It was always the same along the lines of 'Poor Guys, all that tech and their biggest app has such a bad rep- and no funding'
Im on Steem for 2years already and trust me, from the 1.4k followers, there are under 10 that I interact with now, and I'd guess 1200 easily are inactive. Change? Yes please!
Changes bring Changes!
I dont know how it is for new writers to start banging out posts and getting responses and interaction on here, but I know its not much. I hope Justin puts back the icon of how many view's the post recieves (remember that tool?!) and also its certain that the users from Tron will start to go check out Steemit.com, so there will be more engagement again like it used to be.
There was nearly a social media dapp built on Tron that I knew of but it didnt take off I dont think (didnt check for a long time). No wonder Justin thinks its a good idea because Tron doesnt have anything like Steemit.
This is what I liked first about Steemit, that it is an idle meeting place where we can meet and communicate! Shame we suck at communication as humans though huh. Just by seeing how popular Reddit became, its just natural that it will happen on blockchain too just like any other tech related thing will also be in the future running on Blockchain.
So what does a clever buisness man do?
Instead of building another blockchain, one which naturally supports Fee-less Micro Payments (which is the pinacle of the future use of a blockchain in mass adoption at street level - to pay people in tiny amounts instantly throughout the day with no fee's.)..
Just go buy one that is already proven to work!
I think many still cant grasp the idea of linking seperate blockchains to work together but it will become quite natural as an example proven by ChainLink.
My guess's are..
Well for one, the price of Steem will go up. Steemits huge sell offs that were happening to pay overheads, have stopped which will stable the price. This in itself will stop the price dumping, and combine this with the Tron peeps naturally buying steem to start interacting on this chain, we shall see a nice rise in price.
Second is that the Brand Name 'Steemit' will become a very marketed product and recieve cash and tech injections from Trons chain and Justins Wealth, which will be then known to many others and more importantly, hopefully to get other and bury the ninja mine saga.
More Devs? I believe so! We should get many more shitty dapps on steem run by scammers, which wont be good but thats what will happen as its normal. Hopefully Steem devs will colaborate with Tron devs and we become stronger.
Im exited to see this all panout.
To be honest, I really am feeling good about it.
Have a great day!
