I must profess I am no saint in many respects. I have been selling SCR on the exchange to reclaim my initial 0.8 ETH investment.

Think of the game I developed for Scorum? Well just to say it cost me way more than I have managed to earn back sadly. The theme of the game was especially made for Scorum and just as the app version was taking off (now with 250k installs and 10k active users) it got pulled for gambling association and I had to rebrand.

Ironically as I believed in the platform at the time, I staked all of that and the sponsor money is now almost worthless compared to the game's development cost!

The platform has almost completely been abandoned by the Scorum team.

I stopped blogging when SCR went so low it just wasn't worth my time. But I have been keeping an eye on whose been writing here and a few old users are back. So I am wondering why people are choosing to stay on Scorum?

For example with all the ideas of increasing the user base will that guarantee a listing on a larger and credible exchange that doesn't wash trade like Hotbit (all their volume is fake).

I have seen a few good ideas of how to bring more people here but who is going to pay a listing fee for a big exchange in the near future? While many say a new exchange listing isn't the main aim, I honestly think it should be. Even with no extra development done on the platform, it's got enough of a working product going to be attractive to some people if it had a credible exchange behind it's currency to get going.

On another interesting development a Steem version of Scorum - Sports Token was doing well until recently and it's price has totally collapsed.

What Can I Currently Earn on Both Platforms?

Writing a post on sportstalksocial.com right now currently earns me between $1.15 and $2.50 (between 20,000 and 40,000 Sports tokens)

Writing a post on scorum.com right now gets me anywhere between $1.35 and $2.60 (150-300 SCR). So ironically Scorum actually has more earning potential than Sportstalk once more! But sportstalksocial.com is linked to a more stable crypto which has better exchanges.

This is how I figure if Scorum and SCR could get onto a good exchange without the help of the dev team (as they won't help) it could make the difference. Of course even I realise this is somewhat of a simplistic and potentially short sighted argument but please feel free to weigh in with your thoughts.
