Steem is poised for a really good future as it is one of the first times I've seen blockchain tech and cryptocurrencies being done on a practical level. I have always noticed that Crypto was always a hodlers game. There are also people in my country #teammalaysia accepting steem for goods and services.
This is amazing as it implies that Steem has a future beyond a store of value. It can be a proper currency! I don't think Bitcoin can even have that due to its bad transaction speeds and fees.
So far, I have been on Steem Private for a day. A few kinks that need to be ironed out but it is more of the people who join rather than the admins themselves. I see a good future for the Steem Private group. Keep it up!
