The dual posting has been a strange experience, indeed. The thing I've been watching for the past couple of months on Steem is my friends/follows feed... and how the time gap between posts just keeps growing and growing.

My original strategy was not to follow the mass exodus from Steem, but instead wait it out and post unique content to both chains... and then when JS would make some massive pump of Steem to profit from his own exit strategy, ride out on that wave and get as much Hive for my Steem as possible. Seems that particular scenario is becoming less and less likely... but hey, it was a gamble.

I still have no interest in shitposting. It rubs me the wrong way. regardless of whether it's my own or someone else's. It adds no value, and 20+ years experience in this gig tells me that shitposts are a certain route to site failure... not because they may/may not "make money" but because who the hell is going to bother to sign up and participate in a social venue that's just an ocean of uninteresting crap?

For me, the experiment is also likely to end soon, mostly because the latest series of shenanigans seem likely to reduce the potential ways to "move out" from Steem to perhaps ZERO, and what's the point of holding tokens in a project that has zero liquidity?
