The hardest part in getting Blockchain to take over things like social media would be to get the big mass of people that do not really care about the things that blockchain is about to use it. So it will probably take quite some time till that happens

I think you're right, and take into consideration the average person doesn't even know what blockchain is and hasn't even considered cryptocurrencies.
I surely hope so! I am all for promoting the site as often as I feasibly can. I spend more time here than I do on other sites and am happy to be a part of the community. That curiosity could make a few a little richer if they would take the time to actually become an active participant in sites such as these with enough backing and effort. I know I've seen a nice return without investing anything other than my time.
But the whole process has to grow a lot. For instance having to wait for an account to be created and verified is probably too much for the average Facebook-Internet-User. I mean compared to just taking less than 5 minutes to create an account on any social platform creating one for steemit is different. When thinking of how something on the internet usually just has someones attention for 4 minutes average or so before that person needs something cool to happen to stay interested its really a weakness to getting steem up and running for the masses
