It's great to hear your positivity as an experienced youtuber with a decent following. What a lot of people don't seem to comprehend when they are operating here is that everything is new and in progress. We don't have that many users but we are growing. Everything is not perfect but it is under construction.
Dtube and steemit are works in progress and far from perfect but they do have a lot going for them. Being able to earn from the second that you join is massive but like any other media site it won't be much until you build a good following.
That will only happen when you have put in the time, effort and content to gather one. Also the potential going forward is massive. If we can gain mass adoption in the future which we hould considering all the apps under construction and other developments down the line then steem could be worth a lot of money. Every 1 STEEM that you earn now be worth 10 or 100 dollars in years to come. And anybody holding some has a stake and a say in the company.
Thank you @niallon11!
I completely agree brother.
I love what you said about about building a following “That will only happen when you have out in the time, effort and content to gather one.”
I think a lot of people, when they are new, want to reap a big harvest even though they only planted a few seeds.
In my opinion if our main focus is to provide value then the “rewards will come in time no matter what. Sometimes it’s not in the form of “money”, maybe it’s experience or skill. But with improved skill comes more opportunities for payouts, or whatever the goal is.
I think I will make a Dtubedsnap about this today, I am inspired by your words brother.
Exactly. You can gain more than money from your time. Even if i never earn a penny from steemit i have still gained a lot in my time on here. The people, skills and experience that i have gained are invaluable. I power up everything that i earn in the belief that we will have a big future on the platform.
My main goals are to grow my account and my following. I enjoy the time i spend on the site so anything after that is just a bonus. I could spend all of my time on facebook or instagram and earn nothing. Here, even if it's small it's still more than i would have otherwise. People expect to have it all straight away but we all know the world doesn't work like that.
I think it's a bit of a crypto mentality since everything went so big so fast and people still think that it is normal not the exception. What we need now is steady sustained growth while the world catches up to us.
