Re: Why I'm selling all my alts coins and putting everything into Golos
One thing to consider is platforms like Steemit need a userbase to thrive since a lack of activity is boring so it isn't just a linear calculation of this many users should equal a certain market cap. It is a compounding effect.
Yes good point. Unfortunately nothing in crypto is black and white. But if you look at the content of Steemit now vs even 4-5 months ago, its better.
Also, I've noticed on Youtube that some channels are encouraging people to subscribe / comment on videos through Steemit instead of Youtube. This has only started recently. Youtube have started filtering a lot of content and its really making a lot of Youtube channels angry.
My basic thesus is Steemit is go to growing but Golos will grow faster. We'll see...
PovertyByte is referring to a well known concept of network effects: the more users a platofrm has, the more valuable it is for everyone in the system. Think of facebook or ebay. The thing is, it is really hard to start with a business model like this. That is why I find PovertyByte's comment correct: this is no linear game, it is very much a compounding effect that you should be thinking of. Which means it takes a long time to get started and get some traction.
Obviously I know nothing about this project - but why cant you just use Russian language on Steem? Or perhaps partner with the Steem guys to set up a Russian division of Steem? That way you could perhaps tap into their already existing Russian speaking base.
Anyway, be careful with investment decisions like this
