I think the actual TRUE potential of steemit cant be realized ....yet
I think its still too new and hasnt had much room to grow at the moment. I mean, there are thousands of new people joining the platform everyday, BUT, there are so many people joining who keep spamming music videos or articles that arent theirs
I think it will take a bit more time to see what...steemit can actually be, Instagram has for images and videos, facebook is to keep in touch with family... its just a matter of Steemit finding its legs between the two
