I think I’ll pass on the group for now as I’m set in my portfolio for the time being and not seeking info on anything new at this point, and attention tends to be split between a number of existing channels for now.
I’ve become HIGHLY bullish on XRP. Didn’t touch it for 3.5 years because of the whole anti-bank ideology. Finally grew up, took another objective look, and can confidently say there are no other projects with as strong fundamentals justifying a completely bullish outlook. (Ethereum would be second next, but they still haven’t solved the scalability issue.)
Steem, I’m done with. Sun’s display of centralization with kicking out the community’s delegated witnesses and censoring them was an irreversible dealbreaker for me.
Hive... I have a certain amount of loyalty to the community and shall continue serving here. From the monetary outlook... I think as the crypto market as a whole rises, above will go with it. However I’d be very surprised to see the same type of gains as stuff like XRP, ETH, ADA, and VET where institutional money has stronger reasons to flow into.
Hahaha, you had to grow up and become objective on XRP. Cool! Though I feel sometimes a kid, on this front I was grown up before I stepped into crypto. We seem to have a common view towards crypto and their potential success: They bridge with the 'old' world. Something not seen by so many, but something so obvious. I see too many companies (including Dutch Tax, and other government institutions, and IT consulting firms like Deloitt etc) investing in blockchain but rarely trying to build something on just a public chain. The usually go for a private chain solution. But that is the step they can make at the moment; The step towards using public chain will follow once more people in these organisations get to learn what blockchains are and what crypto currencies are about.
ETH: you said it, scalability is the issue. ADA and VET I need to dive into. Steem: yeah, kinda agree. Now they seem to powerdown the STINC account, or at least one of them. Wondering what will happen. That said, TRON is marketing, something we dont have on HIVE. And yea, HIVE, am also part of this community and like to stick to it. After a very short research time for BTC mining in 2013, it was Steem that got me into crypto, so I have some loyalty towards our services here :)
