or similar comments are not rare, especially under younger steemians.
This is a big what if but stay with me on that, what if Facebook would pay you similar to Steemit.com?
As Mark Zuckerberg is starting to think about cryptocurrencies, which is great btw, why would he not only copy one of the rising stars of the internet like our beloved Steemit.com?
While I think it is unlikely,as I think there will be its own coin or a major coin like Litecoin to buy some funny looking glasses for your best cow in FarmVille or special emojis to send to your friends, it is not impossible that value comes back to the users.
Would you stay? If yes, why? What makes Steemit special for you? Besides the possibility to earn. Most of us dont get censored on Facebook or YouTube, at least that was not the reason I have joined here and sticked to it.
I say Facebook is still very different to Steemit but I never used Facebook from a business perspective.
I never had a fan site or anything where I cared about getting likes and followers.
Here on Steemit you basicly start with your personal fan site and the quest for upvotes and followers begins.
I am not going to deny it, I came for the money also but stayed for the community as I was pretty stoked how positiv it is/was.
When you like a little behind the curtains you see that not everything is rainbows but I would say we are still doing well.
