But the Steemit.com site is limited. It's perfectly suited for blogging. But social media is so much more.
The Hardfork that made it possible to monetize development I now believe was the most important one too date.
It has changed the Steem Blockchain from a blogging platform to a social media experience that is building itself by its own users.
Just look at the development: All these (except Zappl) are already functioning.
Busy.org
chainBB.com
Esteem
Steepshot
Zappl
Just to name a few, and now we have Dtube.
All these apps are completely free to use. A percentage of the rewards generated by these apps go to the creators. Which I think is 100% fair. Again it's not costing anyone anything!
I'm pretty convinced that none of the creators were asked to build these applications. But they build them. And remember the Steem Blockchain is not even 1.5 years old!
All this development gives the Steem blockchain more value and it's only growing.
It's the most incredible mind-boggling thing on the internet for me today.
In the future, I'm convinced new users will even use these apps without ever setting foot on the steemit.com website. They might not even know they are on a blockchain.
