Hey @abh12345 - yes i know you're waiting on my post about the benefits of voting bots. That's been in progress for a while now and I'm sorry it's taking me so long.

Steem definitely has its share of problems, but that doesn't mean it doesn't still have a nice competitive advantage. I think just the fact that there are no serious competitors yet proves that to some degree. Most other top blockchain platforms built for specific purposes have a good bit of competition.

That advantage can definitely go away though if the Steem platform doesn't develop and grow to stay ahead.

Regarding the "minnow oil stock" analogy - Steem is already at a $1 billion market cap so it's way past the minnow category by any stretch of the word. Given the roadmap I'm thinking that 10X growth is a reasonable target over the next few years, though obviously that's extremely dependent on the growth or decline of the overall crypto market.

Good things come to those who wait.

Yes I think you are right in that the lack of serious competitors as yet proves the size of the undertaking required.  EOS/Dan are big names in the crypto world, but they'll still be faced with the issue Steem/Steemit has has with regards to attracting 'everyday' content creators. 

I like the work that @stephenkendal, @starkerz, and others are doing with #promo-steem and @Steem-Ambassador, as I think it's really down to the people here to promote this place like crazy before contenders hit the scene.

$1 billion mc isn't a minnow is it :D  There is much room for growth though, and i'll be here riding the waves (I like waves/wagerr as an investment, in that order btw) for the time being.

Hi Asher. :) 

What are you doing away from that sick bed and socializing away? I saw your post this morning but didn't have a chance to comment. I hope you feel better! Wash your hands a gazillion times the next time you visit a farm.

P.S., interesting discussion with you and Matt! I'm trying to learn this crypto world. Such a whole new world for me. I really thought my learning days would be over after college.
