Can't believe I lost sleep writing something like that lol. But its fun. I think the userbase will be more diverse on Steemit compared to other cryptos. For Ethereum, the smart thing they're doing to get people into crypto is to give fractions of Ether for someone with an Internet (and Mist Browser) automatically running as a partial node. Infrastructure and micropayments are their low-barrier entry points.
Can't wait to see what smart contracts here will bring. Definitely an interesting time :)
