Steem is a zero-fee, near instant settlement blockchain that already processes more transactions per second than the Bitcoin or Ethereum networks. But nobody outside of the site talks about using Steem as a payment method. What has to change in 2018 for this to happen?
Also - not a fan of DLIVE. Makes it harder to follow conversations between people if there isn't an actual comment to respond to.
I think this feature will become more apparent once we have a decentralized exchange and ICO mechanism in place. Also a chatbox with transfer embedded would be awesome.
