There is a difference between an open-source project and one that promises returns from a closed sourced trading bot. The numbers you see and receive on their site will mean nothing once they decide to shut it down and run with all the collected USD. While no one other than you has control of your Steemit account.
Sure, keep comparing the 2 though.
bitconnect would shut down if there is no demand for the bcc token, and with their referral program being so lucrative, the bcc token will have demand
Good Luck with that..
I agree with you, but -- how would one access their STEEM/STEEM Power if steemit.com went away?
Through other wallets and front-ends.
