STEEM as a #1 Cryptocurrency - The Power of Branding

The STEEM Brand

When we were young or just a toddler, we were already embedded into saying or calling a certain item by their brands. As a parent of a 3 year old daughter, you try not to do the same mistake and teach them the correct name for that particular item. Its definitely not that easy as we ourselves are use to calling them by brand.

For example, a hot cocoa normally will be called as hot 'Milo' which is a brand name. 'Milo' in Malaysia is the most powerful brand of cocoa as it has become the official language for ordering a cup of cocoa. I dare you to go in a hawker stall or even a restaurant and say "I would like to have a hot cocoa please..", the waiter/waitress will look you into the eyes and hopefully understands what you are saying...lol.

The other most powerful brand that impacted our lives in Malaysia is 'Colgate' which is of course a toothpaste. Most of us will definitely in our lifetime refer the toothpaste as Colgate, like "Did you bring a Colgate? i forgot to bring mine". You seldom hear or never heard someone in Malaysia asking for a toothpaste like this..."Did you bring a Darlie? i forgot to bring mine", if you say this, you will be branded as a rival brand...lol.

Other items that we used to call by their brand;

SPRITE
Its basically a lemon and lime flavored or lemonade soft drink which definitely will be confusing to order takers if your ordering lemonade soft drink instead of SPRITE. So, best is stick to ordering SPRITE rather than Lemonade.

Pizza Hut
This brand has confused many. I've once made pizza at home and shared it to my friends, when they saw the pizza...guess what? they say "wow...you know how to cook Pizza Hut". Not to be mean but you cant cook the whole Pizza Hut...lol.

Panadol
Is actually Paracetamol or acetaminophen (APAP) to treat pain and fever. The simplest way to ask for a acetaminophen in a pharmacy is just to ask "where is the Panadol". @papanog is this correct Doc?

Feel free to comment if you have other brands that changed your world.

Currently in the #Cryptocurrency world, the brand #BITCOIN comes in mind which understandably is the first crypto in the world and has already being accepted in a few countries as a form of currency. Unfortunately, Malaysia is not one of them.

I believe what @bitrocker2020 and @maverickfoo is currently doing to spread #STEEM to the Malaysian community has not only changed the mindset of what we know about crypto but also to stamped the STEEM brand as a well known brand in the cryptocurrency world. Of course there are a lot of #STEEMIANS out there who is also spreading the STEEM world to the community, with that I salute you!

So when people were asked about what is cryptocurrency...they will reply "oh yes...its STEEM"

I can see and I do believe that STEEM will outgrow other cryptocurrency.
