RE: What will drive STEEM higher? Once EOS is running, why won't all the independent developers take their apps there

in #steemit7 years ago

Not sure that helps long term. If most Active users migrate to EOS once that chain is up and running, how does getting more Steemit users now help STEEM in the long run?

Sort:  

I still think that the most valuable solution builted on top of steem is steemit and by growing the community it would growth steem value. I think eos would be a better solution for a lot of things, but for a social network steem works fine. But as you stated:
But as you stated:

The leadership of STEEM built steemit.com as a demo system, to prove out STEEM. Not to turn steemit.com into a competitor to FB or reddit or etc.

So I'm a little bit confused about the steem future. I know that technology is not the only important thing on crypto space, branding plays a big hole on the field. So maybe steem and eos will serve different niches.

Or maybe they will be almost direct competitors, and only one will survive due to network effect

My bet is they are direct competitors, and STEEM will not survive that all at life and death struggle in the free market place.

It makes sense, and actually I am afraid you're right.
