Thank you Mobbs! I think my model would be able to function in the long run. I have heard from teachers that they are very interested in something like this, and may even be interested in implementing it in the curriculum. So if that happens, it would be a steady number of viewers every month. But of course we are still far away from this.
The most obvious answer to how SteemSTEM will contribute, is that I may be able to generate more revenue to produce more cartoons (which is the only thing that requires funding right now). But the blockchain technology is also perfect for documenting scientific results, as it will not be possible to manipulate it, like it otherwise in theory would be on any normal website. So with the blockchain technology we have sort of a modern laboratory notebook where you always can look back to check that everything is kosher.
The revenue I would get from here, I would use to make more cartoons. And hopefully more cartoons would mean more interest in the journal, which would mean even more revenue for even more cartoons, and so on.
Cool. Our value is not great now with the steem prices we have, but maybe itll be worth something down the line =)
Let's hope so :)
