Yes the blockchain is where the true revolution is happening. Steemit.com is but the current most popular window for interfacing with that. :) I suspect we'll see a variety of sites interfacing the blockchain in the future. Someone could make an ArtSteem website or something that ONLY showed posts tagged art. Really, the sky is the limit.
It is a big deal.
Oh I agree. I just hadn't thought about all angles yet and I appreciate being set straight on the matter
