Bloomberg Interview for Steemit and Steem

ew-and-patterns (70) · 7 years ago

Pls consider bringing the views counter back, even if it only shows the views on steemit.com.
And pls consider giving weekly updates on the stuff, that you guys are doing. I am sure you are working hard in the background, but the community wants to know what is currently being done for the platform.

Thx. This interview was a good start to get more attention.

Weekly updates postings also would be nice as it opens up the comments section for us to comments, debate, ideas, etc. It was thanks to @ew-and-patters that now i know the view counter is gone, it is/was a nice feature to know if you were getting visibility or not in your postings, especially if you are new, since you do not know if it is because of the article, or because no one views it that you do not get feedback as expected :)

@ned Good interview. I would recommend practicing explaining steemit to a 5 year old. That explanation was not the clearest. Also I did not come away with an understanding or even a feeling that I could make money blogging on steem from this interview (which is steemit's main selling point in my opinion).

joeyarnoldvn (61) · 7 years ago

What hooked me most was the blockchain of Steemit and some people may or may not make more money on Steemit while others maybe less so, meaning no guarantees, meaning it depends, as there is that wide variable there, and money is a selling point I agree but beyond that, I like a place to save my work, my things, and it seems that blockchain networks do not allow data to be removed. Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and others, have deleted my stuff, have censored me, the Original Oatmeal, for many years, so many times, and many people have been censored, not only me, so we like http://Steemit.com and http://Gab.ai and http://Minds.com and http://Bitchute.com and others because of the blockchain system which is decentralized and that is something we may prefer over centralized bullies.

Great exposure and very well done @ned!

I wonder why she explicitely touched the bad quality of the content. Was this something you mentioned by yourself during the talks in Korea? It's actually not correct. Some bad quality pieces are currently overvalued through an excessive use of bid bots. So first that doesn't concern the content of the whole platform and second it's nothing we couldn't fix. This is rather a content structur problem than a quality problem... Maybe that's what you can tell them the next time when you're asked about quality issues which we actually don't have :-)

Now hopefully the wave of new users - brought through media attention - will come after HF 20 :-)

nicolelang (41) · 7 years ago

Well said, man! My thoughts exactly regarding ‘bad quality content’! There is a vast amount of quality posts in the community. It’s just the way they are valued by the bid bots that gives the appearance of a ton of bad content. I see incredible posts every day from all types that I follow and I always give them the penny upvote I have lol!

barge (61) · 7 years ago

Hi @ned, two thoughts:

you seemed to concede the point of 'poor quality' content on Steemit - which was pretty much what she opened with - although you did mention 'working' on it. The issue is of low quality stuff making it to the top of trending, rather than there being more low quality stuff than high - isn't it?
I thought you could have usefully emphasized the difference between Steemit and FB being 'decentralized' vs controlled / 'centralized'. I did like how I thought you implied that FB would need to build an app that works with the blockchain in order to 'enhance' the experience of their users :P

Nice to see all this activity Mr.CEO :D, you've certainly got a very calm and collected manner, and you gave a very clear presentation IMO. Wishing you well with the rest of it.

How and when will “the issues in 1” be addressed @ned? Will SMTs even have an influence on the current design or would we rather need another hardfork (21) to fix it?

It’s great to know that you read, yet this doesn’t answer my main question :-)
Will SMTs bring that “HQ ranking and surfacing systems” to steemit.com?

And now that I have your attention: Is the decreasing number of active users (now below 60,000) somehow alarming to you? Will SMTs contribute to generally improve the user experience?

I’m not challenging your competence at all - as you know. I’m only concerned about the future of this place.

This place has no future if there's no shift in the status quo. Although it will survive for some time, due to whales circle-jerking at each other and up-voting their own crap. Thus encouraging others to power-up too in order to make the most out of it while the platform is still alive.

I myself a minnow who no longer feel the magic of Steemit and decided to return to Medium instead. At least my expectations are clearly set on there and the maturity of the platform is comforting. Hence my content is safe without worrying the app suddenly vanished overnight.

EOS is just around the corner. May we breathe a fresh air of freedom by learning from this now failing experiment.

It's good progress for something only a couple of years old, but I'm willing to bet less than 50% of those are real people, the rest are bots.

kabir88 (60) · 7 years ago

Hi @ned

Good to see @steemit getting some promotion in the media. However, when I invite friends to join, here are the problems that needs to be addressed:

Two weeks for an account to be opened for most ordinary people is too long to wait in this day and age.
When they get here, it is a confusing mess. The user journey is fragmented and doesn't flow well. Your typical facebook user will have no clue where to start on steemit
Asymmetric reputation scores. Why does someone with lower reputation voting on someone with higher reputation, push there rep score up, but doesn't push it down when they flag? Why the inconsistency?
People who flag bad content should be rewarded in the same way that those who curate good content get rewarded. Why not just make it symmetrical both ways?
Whale abuse. I have been flagged down numerous times by @haejin not because of the quality of my posts, but purely in retaliation. There needs to be some sort of cap on the number of times one user can flag or upvote another user. This will avoid abuse and stop small clicks developing. This is needed if you really want to create a truly global community.

You can listen to this or wait a few years for some guy in a suit from an expensive consulting firm to come and tell you the same thing.

Waiting for your response.

fiveboringgames (65) · 7 years ago

When people ask me where the value comes from I always say this.

The reward pool is like printed money (currently about 10% a year) and if you don't participate in the platform your value is decreasing and that is how an author receives money.

Also the entire value increases as more people invest with the speculative idea that steem will grow bigger. Then just like most platforms after a few years of only increasing in value due to speculation it will start to generate more of it's value via subscriptions or advertisements.

In steemit's case a subscription might look like someone buying steem but not participating enough to keep ahead of the inflation, and therefore need to continuously reburying steem.

and the advertisement might look like a company/person buying steem so it can promote it's own content.

Anyway thats my take on where the value comes from, do you agree or am I way off the ball. @ned

evolved08gsr (57) · 7 years ago

It's difficult to feel like @ned didn't just throw the center of attention of the interview (the Steemit Social Media Platform) under the bus by effectivley saying "If you wait, you can get a better experience and better quality content, with a similar payment structure, from other providers. But it's ok, because SMTs will be the future of Steem and Steem will be uber valuable once Facebook uses us to monetize their content."

Sure, media attention is nice. And I'll openly admit that the value we see in Steem and SBD has nothing to do with the actual value of the Steemit platform (with something close to an 8:1 bot-to-human ratio, conservatively). It's all speculation on the future potential of success of SMTs. Otherwise, Steem would most likely be worth less than Reddcoin.

My complaint is the lack of support or care shown towards the Steemit Community by @ned and Steemit Inc. over the past ~6 months. The community which he offered as the differentiator between Steemit and other Social Media. It's a shame..

twirble (66) · 7 years ago

Still bothers me that people do not think there is quality content on Steemit. Steemit is inspiring and supporting amazing content and creativity; anyone who actively follows artists and writers should know this. It is just hard for new people to find the quality content, and this leads to this very wrong perception that the woman expresses here. (I think the trending page has gotten a little better, but maybe because people who make better content are using bots now)

I guess this is how it's going to be as Steemit/STEEM starts to hit the mainstream media a little more and we have to be ready for that.

Overall, well handled and great work on getting the slot on a channel like Bloomberg!

It is always going to be a difficult concept for old media to grasp and you could see from their questions they were trying to dwell on the negatives. Ideas like Steem are their competitors after all. Very well played Ned.

Crazy to see that we're gaining mass adoption. Imagine what Steemit will be in 5 years time, Facebook who?

Congratulations on getting this interview and an informing so many about SteemIt! Her question about quality content was surprising, I think as much as we do see some trash posts we see far more quality posts at least from those I follow. We have a great community and so proud to be a part of it! SteemIt is leading the charge and it definitely deserved this hard look from mainstream media! 👏🏼

You could add an embedded YouTube video here so people can watch it without going to Bloomberg. I can find it on YouTube. Good to see Ned on Bloomberg. Very interesting. Steemit is to social networking what Bitcoin is to money.
