The community is missing an opportunity to take our story and run with it
We have a real functioning economy, with real people who are using Steem to fuel there real lives. That is a proof of concept that is extremely valuable. If we use it.
Some are pissed the bloggers are "bleeding" the value out of Steem, but aren't they are showing a true and very real story about how Steem can work as a currency, they are creating volume, making steem move. Nobody wants a stagnant currency that isn't being used. They want a working picture of how to create an economy. We have that! We just haven't focused on it.
We have end-users who are earning steem and trading it and selling it. That is REAL. Most of the Crypto coins are only conceptual.
Be HAPPY we have a real life view of how Steem works as a currency. For work, for pay and it is exchangeable. That creates volume and a real life success story in a market that doesn't have a lot of real use situations.
Package that in a marketing message and we are AHEAD.
