If you could pick one person to join Steemit to boost this platform to a whole nother level, who would it be?

in #steemit7 years ago

There's thousands of celebrities and internet stars out there that people would love to see on Steemit but Who do you think would be the best of the best, the cream of the crop and would take this platform to a hole new level.

Who has the biggest voice on the internet?

Who has been independent of the main stream media and doesn't care what people say about him or her?

Who would take this platform to the moon and not look back?

Who would you choose?



I'm sure there's many great people out their that would do the same thing for this platform but for me personally I can only think of one man that has had more of an impact on social media, main stream news, politics and just the overall shaping of the internet and that's why I think he would be man at the top of my list to join this platform to take us to the next level.

That man is non other than Matt Drudge of the Drudge Report.

Drudge has been shaping the political landscape in American and across the world for over 20 years now. He does it with just a simple one page website called the Drudge Report were he links to all the most interesting articles of day. He doesn't care how controversial the article is if it's interesting he will link to it. That's one of the nice things about having your own website where you don't have to worry about getting banned or censored by what you say. That's why I think he would appreciate Steemit a lot more than facebook or twitter. No one can ban you here, there's no moderators and algorithms reducing your view count. It's just likes and the occasional flagging vote but If your content is solid than no one is going to mess with you and you get to earn a few bucks in the process.

Share who you would like to see join Steemit and make this platform a better place.

Thanks for reading,

How about boris Johnson

Ya I can see that having a former politician being an interesting read if he would share his thoughts with us.

True you'd never know if they were telling the truth

Donald Trump

Ahh, now would that be something if he said fuck off twitter I'm moving to site called Steemit where I don't get censored.

That would be amazing, there would be tons of new users here if that happened. The influx would be insane.

James Corbett - well actually he already is on Steemit, but nobody else comes close!

ex-Governor Mike Huckabee!

Elon Musk!

Ok, not bad. probably a little to crony capitalist for my taste but thanks for sharing.

It may look shallow, but I will go with Dan Bilzerian. He would definitely give this platform an boost that is needed.

He's controversial and a gun enthusiast so ya good pick.

And you forget most important thing of all - he posts pictures of boobies. Everybody loves it!

I'm also a simple man; I see boobs, I press like

As I see you are an experienced steemian here. Mind if I ask you a question what do you think about steemit and future of it?

I heard that there are some new platforms like steemit will soon be available. Is it any threat to steem value?

I also heard that a co creator of the steemit left organization. Did you know any more details about it?

Ya Dan left the company and now he's creating the EOS token which looks interesting. He said he left because he's a creator of software and not a code monkey which I get when you have a piece of software that is mature like Steemit you don't want to waste your time fixing bugs and writing enhancements when the core logic of the platform is still the same.

I'm sure there will be other competition and probably a better platforms than Steemit in the future. That's why I'm cashing out my SBD and investing in other cryptos so at least I get something out of the platform if it all goes to zero.

Let me thank you for this answer, I find it very interesting.

Ok, You are cashing out. But you got something to cash out!
What about us that don't have that much currently on the account?

What is your suggestion to do as a next move?
I personally (3 weeks here) find many flaws on steemit as a platform. The site is too slow, search engine sucks, there is no automatic refresh .
And it's really hard to get some money and visibility on your content as a minnow. I feel like there is some kind of economy spread with steem currency that prefers whales instead of minnows. Being a minnow here is a pain in the ass. No wonder many people quit after a few weeks.

I also heard that there is a big chance for increasing value of steem over 4$ in next 6 months. What is your opinion about the value of steem in a short-term and in a long-term?

Ya Steemit is by far perfect. I think the developers wanted it basic. 1. to get it rolled out as fast as possible 2. having alot of bells and whistles on the blockchain is not good because it inflates the size of it.

The nice thing about steemit is that anyone can build a new UI over the top of the it so you could have all the fancy searches and filters.

As for building your steem power and followers, I suggest posting about stuff that interests you and befriend some whales that share your interest.

It's hard to say what the price of steem will be in six months. I though we'd be at the $5 by now when steem was around $2. If Youtube and Twitter start really cracking down and censoring people I think we could see and influx of people joining at the end of the year and maybe the price will reach $5 then.

For a different answer!

I've been here one year today.

I've reinvested all my earnings in Steemit and now they are worth about US$6500.

After learning about cryptocurrencies on Steemit I invested in 10 others and have made very good returns

Although this post only made $3, by doing what I said in it I made shit loads!

Mrs. Trump

Only if there're nsfw tagged :))

don't trust any celebrities.

My vote is not a person but an organization called WIKILEAKS, absolutely censorship resistant information the world should have access to.

Ya, that's a good pick.

Sorry must disagree with you on that one. But not everyone can be right...haha.
Why do you think Julian Assange is a fraud?

I think he is controlled opposition, just like Alex Jones, Noam Chompsky, and Edward Snowden. But Assange is the cream of the crop - he even denies 911 was an inside job, so he's clearly somebodies puppet.

His cult ("the family") background is really interesting too:

Just try searching online for that (not using goofle of course!)
