Steem is still has a long way to go and a long way to prove itself.
I agree, but you see the problem maybe lays in the 2 quotes, because the holders of Steem, are pritty much the steem blockchain so if we end up with 50 high risk ranked games and another 50 gambling dapps to offer with nothing else, then that makes nothing different about the steem blockchain and that would be a shame.
