Oh no, not another post about Dlive and Pewdiepie:
There have been too many posts to count regarding Dlive and Pewdiepie. If you somehow managed to miss the story, DLive a former Steem app, managed to snag the top Youtuber to make exclusive live streams on their platform. The move has generated a lot of attention.
I'm just going to say, we have talked about knowing Youtube is losing it's users, either by demonetizing them or banning them. We have said we should go after those users.
We didn't do it.
Dlive did.
I hear their site is looking good too.
Yeah, I feel a little envious.
Which brings me to another thought. A plan like going after large content creators and giving them rewards to hand out, so that they bring their followers, is a great promotion. However, it also has to be backed up with curation and platforms that work.
Before it can happen, It takes coordination and organization to plan, fund, and execute this type of promotion.
We have a lot of people who seem to confuse organized efforts with decentralization.
I'm convinced we can have people who are interested in promotional activities gather together for planning and funding projects without risk of centralization. In fact, I would say that is exactly what I hope the future foundation being planned by SteemAlliance will do.
It's hard for me to see a path for success if we do not organize and fund promotional activities.
What are your thoughts around organized projects with specific goals and outcomes? How would you suggest they get funded?
Let's talk about it!
