Steemit.com: Blogging is the new Mining

[VintageBazaar]

I LOVE BUSY.ORG 

what is this? i looked at it and did not see anything interesting. just steemit in new cover.

I am wondering too. everything is same as steemit. even articles are also same.. it could be steem's other website or someone else just stolen steemit's datas and created that.

Anyone can create their front end for the steem blockchain.

So is this Busy.org a clone or what is it?

There was a proposal for various changes here https://steemit.com/steem/@steemitblog/steem-0-17-change-proposal-introduction

Some of those have been implemented in the github repo.

There is no specific hard fork release yet.

Is there actually no way to recover my password since I haven't logged in in forever?

The price of Steem is on declining trend in the past weeks. I don't know if this will be a good buy or not. Hopefully, the price recovers in the following days/months. Is there any upcoming news regarding Steem that would help its current price to increase?

What is STEEM inflation like?  From the charts is looks like the inflation rate must be pretty high.

Inflation was high in the past if you were holding liquid STEEM and not STEEMPOWER. After some changes recently, inflation is 9.5% and STEEMPOWER holders earn some small percentage of that inflation back as interest.

If my memory doesn't fail me, every year there will be a reduction in inflation by .5%  so next year inflation will be 9% then 8.5% and so on until it reaches a certain "low limit" and stays there.

There is not, at this time, a way to recover your password (much the same as any coin if you lose your private key). There was some talk about setting up a way to recover accounts so you might want to check back in the future.

Can anyone tell me where the money comes from that content providers are being paid?

Is the project team anonymous?

There should be a way to recover the password. Because this is not social media platform not the wallet of the coin.
You can't compare this to the private key of a wallet.

They come from mining mostly. The owners of steemit ia not anonymous. I've saw his picture many places. Don't know if that is the real pick or not.

It is actually both. The web site is a web wallet.

Anyway, your point is valid from the users' perspective and that is the motivation for adding a recovery feature.

Can anyone tell me where the money comes from that content providers are being paid?

It comes from new coins created every block, as is done with mining.

Is the project team anonymous?

The coin is developed by Steemit Inc. a US company. The CEO (Ned Scott) and CTO (Dan Larimer) are public with their pictures and videos all over the internet. I don't know about the rest of the dev team other than them being employees or contractors of Steemit Inc. I think some of them have introduced themselves on the site.

Steem runs on its own blockchain, right?  Are there miners in the conventional crypto sense?  If not, what is the incentive to run a node?  If so, is the block reward split between the miners and the content publishers?

Yes it is all on a blockchain. It's mostly delegated proof of stake, though there is currently a small proof of work mining component (but there is a proposal out to remove PoW altogether). Yes, the block reward is split between the block producers (be they PoS or PoW) and the content reward pool. My recollection is that most of it goes to content rewards.

What creates value/demand for the STEEM coin?  Is it simply speculators and store/transfer of value like BTC?
