Hey guys,
I just wanted to highlight this today because I have few friends that wanted to get a Steemit account after my recommendation.
They've been waiting for their approval for quiet a while now. 3-4 days and even one week.
So I know Steemit needs to approve accounts to avoid spams and things like that but one week to get your account for me slow down the mass adoption.
It could easily scared new comers that are not patient to wait that long to start blogging. Specially with the complexity of the platform towards the blockchain (we must say it's harder to understand than Facebook or Twitter)
When you see that Facebook takes only few minutes or even Twitter to set up a new account. We are far from it.
So I don't know what could be the solution to avoid this long waiting time but I'm open to discussion.
