Steemit is ripe for mainstream adoption and is arguably already underway of achieving it. It is beginning to act as the gateway drug for the masses, leading to the addiction that crypto serves. It's too easy, too familiar, too lucrative... making money can't really be this easy can it? Yes it can.
If you found yourself here on Steemit, bravo! Welcome! Now don't fall into the trap of thinking you can do better still. Go snowball that Steem Power and play the long-term game.
One of the most common fallacies that early speculators venture into is dismissing the usefulness and future value that Steem offers. But what about Bitcoin? Litecoin? Doge? Bleh. Save that for another day.
What Steemit offers is a rather unrivaled, and is arguably an undervalued / undiscovered platform capable of so much potential. Quick overview of Steem (that won't do justice):
Now. A rapid blockchain backed by scaled platform reaching the masses that offers an excessive income stream relative to invested capital that serves as a primary onboarding point for new crypto users.
Tomorrow. The foundational crypto for a tokenized platform ecosystem (SMTs) and fleshed-out marketplace based at the crossroad between old multi-billion dollar institutions and new innovative concepts with a near limitless potential for global advertising opportunities.
Yeah, it can be that good.
When we look at Steemit one needs to consider if they are willing to go down that rabbit hole... and if they do, fly down and go in hard. Accumulate Steem Power like no tomorrow (naturally, according to your rational means) rather than getting distracted by the thousands of other cryptos vying for your attention.
This is a rabbit hole, as is the entire crypto market. There is no guaranteed outs. There is no guaranteed tomorrow and yes you can get buried alive out here. BUT by golly recognize potential when it stares you in the face and go in strong if it meets all of your requisites.
Steem Power locks you into the platform for a maximum 13 week time period, but the rewards it offers users far outpaces the loss in flexibility. Steemit is a game of snowballing your income capability, and offers a compelling future for those willing to take that risk in losing some of their flexibility for the sake of HODL'ing onto its future potential.
I dare you to go down that rabbit hole to acquire more Steem Power. Because I know for a fact you'll see me right there beside you if you do.
It doesnt matter if Steemit succeeds or not (even if it already is), it is about the platforms to come that can take Steem to the next level and beyond. Imagine the Facebook-like platforms yet developed that can easily plug into a scaled financial ecosystem while tapping directly into all the benefits that Steem offers. How much more so will this be the compelling case as Steem itself becomes a defacto go-to for active messaging communities around the world who long to integrate directly into the crypto world? All it takes initially (without having to design a platform from scratch) is a modular integration step while using something like SteemConnect. SMTs are going to blow the door open.
Steemit is just the rocket booster for Steem. So don't miss out on acquiring what you can now, while you still can.
