I have a different opinion. I think Steem will become the sole source of income for many people.
A year ago, in Krakow, I presented the idea of growing the Steem ecosystem by exporting the Steem service through Attention Trading and how this will stimulate external demand for STEEM.
This year in Bangkok, I showcased the operational Waivio platform and presented Steem as a platform for business with a specific example and numbers on how you can build an independent and profitable business on Steem.
Initially, Waivio is focused on managing restaurant rebate programs because this business does not require mass adoption, but there are many other solid business models that can be built on the Waivio platform.
Steem social blockchain has an almost perfect architecture and can be a very efficient platform for multiple business scenarios.
And the important "by-product" of business applications - a strong and continuous cash demand for STEEM. So, even Full-Time Steemians once again will be able to thrive on Steem.
Just #keepsteeming!
