Steem deserves more recognition than this though but I am quite sure it's just a matter of time. I also commend the effort of Steemit Inc and the steem witnesses for their great continuous impact on the platform.
What do you actually think we can do to help Steemit gain more recognition it deserves @theycallmedan?
The only thing that matters is the price... these FCAS scores are like the government trying to tell us a swamp is good real estate because the soil composition is rich in nitrogen for farming, but everyone knows its a swamp you cant farm there... these FCAS scores woudl eb NICE if teh PRICE was going up... no one cares, we need PRICE action and the ONLY WAY to fix that is ONBOARDING USERS.. we have crazy witnesses liek @gtg seriously giving up thinking that its Too expensive to onbaord anyone unles sthey "add value" when no we just are in a leadership droubt and we need infrastructrue paid for by the person with teh largest stake,
in fact @ned would only have to pay his share for onbaording costs, im sue other whales even dolphisn and minnwos woudl donbate to a fund to help onbaord millions of new users...
we need new users because eout of every few thosuand new users onbaorded you might have oen who invests a lot or who talks someoen into investing in some steempower for them to use etc.. also steem on coinbase... they added us to coinbase custody list sow e need to just get adde dtor egualr coinbase and get on twitter whne to coinabse on twitter like digibvyte and chainlink peopel did, if stinky linkies canm get on coinbase, STEEM should be, ESPECIALLy afte rthe FCAS score
actualy this fcas score miught help steem get added to coinbase proper faster
theyve since aided a lot of these already
no no no :-)
I'm not that crazy, it's a bit more complex thing.
We are decentralized after all, not all are looking for decentralized, censorship free, some maybe don't know that yet, until they hit the reality hard. Easy onboarding - I'm all for that. But that should be easy for users and the blockchain. We can do that in a variety of ways, one of them might be through some centralized entity. If more of them, better. Then you can jump to the other side of the mirror.
Crazy? I'm not crazy.. OK, a little ;-)
By the way I'm claiming accounts slowly (not enough for even a one day of onboarding) but they are there to be used.
I'm pretty much looking for some good frontend solution so users with claimed accounts could securely use them for efortless onboarding.
One of the ideas for SPS.
@gtg I know you are actually one of the active and hardworking witness on the steem blockchain. I just hope you discus with other witnesses about the complex problem and come up with a beneficial solution.
I believe it is always advisable to seek the opinions of others in a situation like this. I apologize on behalf of @ackza calling you crazy if you feel very bad about it even though he was actually expressing his mind.
No need to apologize, I'm OK with @ackza :-)
(And he's actually right to some extent ;-) )
And of course, we are looking for solutions all the time.
Thank you.
Steem Ninja (@oracle-d) tokenized their account tokens with Steem Engine. It's very easy to swap those to an account. I tried it out and works easy.

Also:
We expect that this will allow for an 'invite a friend' process to happen instantly on steem. In a couple of weeks we will also open source the steem ninja widgets to allow for any account holder with a number of claimed accounts to tokenise them on Steem Engine, this will allow for whales to easily create liquid markets for their accounts via tokens. Both solutions will bring liquidity, ease of sale and instant onbaording to steem
Hmm... Nice point @ackza but I hope you also know that every crypto price or worth is depending on the value of BTC. There were times whereby steem used to worth more than $1 during the days of high worth of BTC.
I actually think the witnesses and Steemit Inc are really working hard to make this happen even though it's just gonna take time but trust me I strongly believe steem price will worth more than the present value when it's time.
