Read an excellent posting of Tarazkp's, last night, which really pointed out how the steem network is so much more than just a blogging platform; suggesting further that steemit, itself, was one of many dApps which the blockchain can support.
In my wet dreams steem becomes the open sourced Lightning Network which solves scalabilty issues and ensures low transaction fees for all (and any) proof of work cryptocurrency.
The POCKET Project has reenforced the belief in that dream; with what may be a sneak peek of how SMTs may look.
Tarazkp's post could very well cheer up your day. 😎
