I think we'll be seeing a few before mine hits "the shelves" lol. This arcade thing that was featured lately ... euhm ... hold on lemme look that up
@megacity ... is one, and theres @drugwars ofcourse and im sure there's plenty going on at micro-level too but not everyone gets to just google up some php and javascript and start 'hacking' it lol , and maybe if i were structured people zone #1 would be playable by now but well , most i see is gambling so far as that's pretty easy, : send sbd , the timer catches the transaction, generates a random number : 1) you have won , 2) you have lost , send back /not ... but there will be legal hassle with that if they dont look up the nine billion rules of doing business in the E.U. lol ... i still fear 'the right to be forgotten' might bite 'em in the arse here too , and i sure hope not cos i would really not appreciate having to come in under disguise of a vpn as a "non-eu-citizen" , that's all assuming they survive the current i dont know what to call it, its not an identity crisis, its certainly trying but it feels so desperate. Mass-onboarding is a definite means but its a means, not an end, its a means to get numbers, numbers that look good to potential big-advertisers and maybe even investors heh but i think they should push the free transaction thing there .. .i said a few times before in a few places if this were my thing i would be stalking Gabe Newell from steam/valve for an exclusive deal on micropayments or even adoption to use as payment to buy Steam Store items. They gave up on BTC (no wonder b/c the tx fees and the bumps in high and low) but this thing has none (and atm no bumps to speak of either so given a conversion back to dollar fee thats included in the price and VAT ofc.. it has nothing but extra advantage and options)

not to mention "in-game" micropayments ... but for some reason mass-adoption is seen (or sounds to me like) 'bring a friend and some money' .. as if 100.000 people with a €20 each will make a dent after the next sell-off, right ?

And as you say, who the hell (thats my lingo ofc) would wanna pay to post puppies and then even not be able to post as many as they want to AND risk being downvoted if they spend money to expand ... it's absurd that part, the expectation, i mean , or at least the way they try to sell it sounds.

But way, if it keeps going this way , maybe you , a few other loco's and interested oddballs like me (not referring to you, its up to you to define yourself lol) can put up one STEEM each and offer to buy the company b/c that's what it will be worth at this curve, sadly ... and i hope im very wrong and i hope i stand corrected and will have to apologize by christmas :D but even if ... its still too nice a toy to play with (so yea i took an account just for talking so the utility accounts dont get mixed up with my personal opinions and also cos its gonna be easier to just look in one spot heh)

o wait a minute

maybe that's what they're trying : it's a whale conspiracy to take over Steemit Inc at the lowest possible price, maybe even in cahoots with Justin Sun and Jack Ma lol ... o wait that would actually euh ... well hm ... yea well, n/m

ehm ... i could even go further in my subversive heresy and say that
if i were the boss-man i would at this moment be considering making an offer to Justin Sun himself to buy 49% of the company , ... 49% and put some of those billions and that marketing genius to work incorporating Tron and his image with a much-needed utility , to save my minions so their families can eat next year ...

but ... i assume that would mean "admitting defeat" or something instead of "maybe millions in a year or two" and one has to be careful in a tribal environment or

yah, definitely a good idea to get this yapping account heheh ... see you around then ... gtg get my meds so i stay nice and quiet
