STEEM has the power to become viral in the next few months:
- Users write useful and content prone to become viral
- New users come from the platform used from authors to share their content
- A new, bigger userbase gets absorbed by STEEM, because it rewards creating a sub social network instead of just profiting from the content you gave them freely
As you see STEEM has a positive feedback loop integrated in itself. The more and more time passes, the bigger STEEM will become inevitably. This will easily form a bubble of sharing knowledge which will not be something you can burst, because knowledge is the basis used to materialize action and this is true in every market or paradigm we human created.
I bet Twitter shares will tremble in the next year or so, when the menace of a new era of content sharing will emerge. Be it STEEM or something similar we will see, but I'm more than positive this platform will get mature enough to withstand competition!
