I have a feeling steem will be a big contributor to my financial freedom.
I need to get some generous whales to become interested in my viewpoints or even start following me and upvoting all my posts. Which in turn will let me afford some high quality camera/microphones so that I can upload content on DTube and even more interact with this community.
In the long run I really feel that Smart Media Tokens and ICO's on the steem blockchain will push up adoption and price. I really feel that it is very possible to see steem at $20, $50 even over $100 as long as people are incentivized to the growth of the community as a whole.
One recent development is Joe Rogan discussing steem on his massive podcast for a full 2 minutes and even brought up the steem page to talk about it a bit. Amazing exposure which is in the internet version of Ellen talking about bitcoin.
I can see SMT's really taking off too :) seeing what else will be build on STEEM is really exciting! I also believe steem can hit $100! That would mean a marketcap of around $25 billion or more depending on inflation, but I can see that happening! Yeah I saw that Joe Rogan interview. Pretty cool stuff!
