RE: Steemit And SMTs In Forbes: A Very Good View On What Needs To Happen

in #steem7 years ago

Absolutely. There are many who cannot tell the difference, even on here.

That is okay for now. Steemit is still a central part of the platform...the most important piece...for now.

Give it another 6 months to a year, and things could change. Some of the other applications could end up taking center stage.

Either way, any application that receives publicity is helpful at this point. Expecting a financial/business writer to comprehend what truly is going on is a stretch at this point. I would bet a week ago, before researching this article, he had little idea what the blockchain even was outside it is that Bitcoin thing.

Sort:  

that Bitcoin thing.

Ha I know right? I learn something new about The Blockchain everyday.
It's easy to forget that most people are still on square one.

Every mainstream article has to start out with:

cryptocurrency is a public open-source online ledger blah blah blah

because half the population is completely uneducated on the topic. Doesn't stop them from having an opinion on it though...

Oh no! Look out for that fake online wizard scam money pyramid!
