I'll keep taking the rewards and it's all still fun for me. The spam and abuse have not totally stopped, but some people are dealing with them. It's up to us to moderate.
I'm interested to see where the next wave of users come from. I'm not sure how we should be creating accounts now. I see Blocktrades charges about 5SBD for it. I'll happily pay to get good people on here.
dapps are going to be able to make them for "free" - they are not really free, but they are discounted using their excessive Resource Credits.
But, everyone can technically do it too, granted they deploy the right command.
Blocktrades is up and running and anonsteem too... so, if you got someone waiting on the sidelines, get them in here.
