I don't think we need to worry about complacency anymore. It is not dependent upon the price of STEEM. The complacency, in my view, came from an over dependence upon Steemit Inc. That mirage was popped. Now the developers are taking upon themselves to do more.
Steem-engine is a prime example. A platform built upon Smart Contracts, developed by a community member, that is something Steemit Inc was suppose to handle. Do not be surprised if someone takes the SMT code and finishes it.
Complacency is something we all need to worry about. It may not be Steemit Inc that we rely on the next time around. We may just rely on 1 or 2 developers to take on all the work like aggroed and yappamatt.
That is true. That said, I think with IEOs from Steemhunt, Dlike, and Actifit, to just name a few, the development is going to come from many different areas. Our developers seem motivated and are working on projects that are ever expanding.
Ironically, we are also seeing the Steemit Inc team stepping up.
Great points!
