Oh my, what a time to be alive! I was looking through some old posts and found one very interesting post written by 
Total World Domination
Dan calls it "Steemit's Evil Plan for Cryptocurrency World Domination". I don't think it's an evil plan. However I believe this is a brilliant plan which will contribute to Steemit in such a manner that the world will talk about nothing else but Steemit.
Once this will be implemented everything and anything will become part of Steemit in a short timespan. If the marketplace would become an ebay like place where you would be able to buy and sell anything and get paid in Steem or SBD two things will happens:
- Millions of people will join Steemit in a short timespan
- The price of SBD and Steem will go to the Moon
The Crypto Future
I believe adding the Marketplace to Steemit will do the same to Steem as what Silk Road did for Bitcoin. It establishes the currency and makes it widely accepted. Where Bitcoin was meant to become the future when it started it will now merely be a highly traded cryptocurrency. Steem however has the advantage that it doesn't use or need the Darknet. Housewives, Artists, Officers and basically all walks of life have gathered already on Steemit and once the market will open they too will use it.
So it's really low key and everyone can and will be using it. This is actually the same thing Dan figured out over a year ago.
The real money isn’t in blogging, content generation, or voting. The real money is found in bootstrapping a digital currency. A currency owned and operated in a decentralized way by ordinary people.
You see, it really is the future
We are lucky
Consider yourself lucky for the simple fact that you have found out about Steemit before the Marketplace has been launched. Because the idea is around since the first days and everyday that passes brings us closer to the Steemit Markeplace. This place is full of people waiting for an opportunity like this and the most of them have patience to wait for it. It doesn't mean that we need to wait for another year, however at this point it still is a bit unclear when it will start really. In Dan's words we are ripe for this marketplace in any way.
This is an environment that is ripe for a rich market place where people can exchange real goods and services along with their ideas.
Other Markets but not this one
A quick search on Steemit shows that there a few other "Markeplace-like" ideas and initiatives but imho none of them are quite what the Steemit Marketplace could become. A marketplace run by ordinary people who trade with a decentralized currency. Once this happens everybody will want to join Steemit as fast as they can. Dan's prediction is on point:
If ever there were a website / marketplace that would bring cryptocurrency to the masses, steemit.com is it.
Additional ideas
I would love to see an option to use some kind of affiliate system where you can select products from the markeplace you want to sell. That's just one but I am fairly certain you guys can come up with tons of ideas which I would love to see. Just leave them in the comment section and maybe some of these might get pickep up one way or another :)
Now it time for some serious business. It's time for todays....
Who To Follow
Today I decided to give you the list of people to follow that replied to
@Stellabelle Ah yes, a name that sounds quite familiar. It sure does considering she is around since over a year now. And with over 4000 followers a much respected member of Steemit Society. Did she give up when she started and her posts did not reward her much? NOOOO she continued and eventually even used her beginnings as inspiration for a series called "Steemicide". She has great humor and even when it doesn't look like she is posting a lot, she is commenting almost on every posts there is :D.
@Dana-Edwards is very very very active when it comes down to posting new content. And those posts are certainly no meme type of posts as they are full of interesting matter and get you to think about them. You actually are invited to the discussion by each and every posts that hits the account. This makes this account in my opinion a certain "One to follow".
Got the first vote! Lol this is going to be very hard to achieve in the future! On another note this is an awesome post and my excitement for this platform grows by the second. I haven't been on Twitter or Facebook since yesterday! HA!
So in other words, he once was that same enthusiast newbie you and I were too! Nowadays he is a bit more experienced and entertains us with his vlog mainly about the cryptocurrencies.
