RE: TRUTH OR DARE #93 - Do You Believe STEEM will go to $25 in 2018? - UPVOTE Giveaway 0.010 SBDs HAVE FUN an get PAID :)!!

I've got a few $AUD Hundred in Bitcoin, its so volatile it could be $500 one day and $250 the next.
As far as Steem being the next big social networking site, I'm not so sure.
Posting on Steem has a few barriers to entry other social networking sites don't have such as having to use Markdown to render a nice post so it rewards motivated users over casual ones and that's fine but I feel it will discourage broad uptake, and it also has some non intuitive navigation issues.
It also reminds me a bit of the point gaming that used to go on on sites such as Yahoo Answers, with sockpuppet accounts being used to makes gains.
As a newer user I was surprised to discover getting or buying a second account is pretty easy, that and the common use of voting and comment bots may devalue the site.

Anyhows, that's just my opinions, I still think it's a great site with heaps of good content and potential, but the problems I've highlighted above could devalue it.

i bet there's a lot o Believers now, but hey wait did you hear about the airdrop of Vice coins to all Steemians

No, I'll have to look that up.
