Hive account@jerrybanfield, it's great that you're so pumped on Steemit and think that it's going to $10...I get your reasons why you think so, however you're also looking at Steem from only your own personal angle...someone who came in and invested a ton of money giving you a ton of voting power, which draws other users to you...as well as you're an excellent marketer and you came with A LOT of followers, so you instantly were getting paid for videos you post. I wonder how much you'd like it if you came in with no followers and signed up with no money. Pretty sure you wouldn't like Steem as much as you do now and wouldn't be able to gain the traction you have in such a short time span. Most of the new users, who are the ones that would really make Steemit grow, experience it this way, and it exposes you to seeing some serious flaws in the infrastructure of Steem, which apparently you aren't aware of. Try making a mother account where no one knows who you are, with no money in it, and start marketing then...you'll go nowhere fast. I'm also curious about your thoughts on the technicals of Steemit. I feel like you're analysis is pretty biased towards just the idea of Steemit, without considering some of the analytical side. They're diluting themselves at a very quick pace...they have no advertising revenue either, so since money doesn't just last forever and come free by posting videos, what's going to happen when no one is getting paid to blog anymore and no more new users are coming in because of that. There's more to consider with Steemit than you talk about.....have you actually looked at it as deep as you would look into a stock before buying it? I don't think the future is as bright as you do for Steemit, and I'd be surprised if it ever hits $5 at the way they're going. Just somethings to think about....enjoy your Sunday!
