It doesn't seem like we can actually use the currency to do anything on site. It's almost like it's only purpose is to be exchanged for bitcoin , USD, or to be turned into "Steem Power? to build influence.
TO me it seems like the currency would be more validated if we could use it for something on site...like maybe purchasing articles or posts.
What's your take on it? I've only been a member here for a few days so what do I know. It's just opinion but what do you think?
