The future development of steem depends on us and what do i mean by us?
Looking at the activities of some whales on the platform, if nothing is done for peace to reign then there might be trouble in the future of steem
If greed and insult can be put aside then there is hope for steem future
Also if some whales on the platform can create some coins that will be traded specifically for steem and to involve steemians then steem can do well.
Also with the security issues on ground, if a 2fa security can be introduced then things will go well also
