I've mentioned it in the past that survival depends on adaptability on the current circumstances whether we like it or not the present predicament of steem is the reason why adaptability to the state of the blockchain is very important. The truth is that there is no prerequisite for success on the blockchain because as the time changes and new innovations takes place, the steem blockchain is always undergoing changes and what I mean by changes is that different system or different pattern of getting votes and getting around changes every single day but to someone who only knows how to write content and share them on discord channels or obviously someone who knows only how to talk with people on discord channel and banking on people there to auto-vote them, they're obviously stuck in the past, because sooner or later discord's functional advantage will die and the dapps will have centralisated abilities in an individual's steem journey.
I once mentioned it that over dependability on a particular pattern on the steem blockchain is tantamount to failure that is why when you look at people who embrace a certain pattern of earning you will see that they only blog like once in a week and the reason why this is so is because the current situation of the steem blockchain doesn't embrace their method of earning and bringing content any longer and they could not adapt to the current change that has taken place on the blockchain and that is why I think so many content creators will become invisible in the future because of lack of adaptability to the current trend of change that will always take place. Recognising and sticking to one particular pattern is stagnancy and when we don't adapt to change, we suffer, get forgotten like a piece of old newspaper, that's why I think exploring the millions of possibilities on the platform and upgrading yourself to a particular standard, allows you to keep earning and keep staying relevant. I once mentioned that over dependability on dtube and other DAPP will be detrimental for people who suddenly stops getting support because they'll be lost, rambling and wallowing with no aim, why? Because they've depended too much on a certain source and this will bring massive shock when this source is gone and adaptability to their current predicament and finding a way to move on would've been a solution, but the truth is that they can't, because they've built their steem journey around a source and they're now too rigid to undergo adaptability.
Make no mistake I will tell you the blatant truth about the current situation of the blockchain and this is the fact that now is the most difficult time to be on this blockchain why is this? Reason is because there is no drive to actually do more than you can and when you actually do more than you can you get a little bit of what you don't deserve because of the market and because of the circumstances surrounding it. Howbeit we love steem, unconditionally and we're here come bear or bull, however because of the bear we must now have to adapt to a certain kind of prerequisite and the certain pattern and method which may be strange to us in order to keep being relevant for example I underwent so many faces during my 1 year 5 months of being on the platform and I have developed exploring better opportunities when some dies along the way full stop in fact there may be a time when something bigger than decentralized application may come on and people who have built their lives around the decentralized application may find it difficult to adapt to this new method of being on the blockchain while some definitely will do a very good job as adaptability because whether you believe it or not it is the only way to stay relevant in a platform where change is currently manifested every now and then
