RE: 📌 Have You Missed the Steem Boat?
If that's the selling point, it shouldn't be. I mean, "a way to make money" can mean a lot of things. The point is that money is paid to content creators rather than to centralized owners of the website. It doesn't mean there's a guarantee you can make money or that it's a path to riches.
And I don't think that's right that the rewards will be diluted as more people join. As more people join, there's also more attention and belief in Steem, and more money invested into it. So more of a middle class over time, most likely. And then smoother payouts (more people with some steempower) and less all or nothing based on whales.
Well it is their selling point, its says something about "your voice is worth something" in which they are referring to a payout. Which is great, I am merely saying the system needs some tweaking to allow more people meaningful voting power then it currently sits or the majority won't stick around.
Yes, I don't look at Steemit as a get rich or a path to riches, but I do look at as an outlet as content creator where I can get paid for my content and if the reward isn't on par with other outlets there is no point in spending the amount of time it does to write a quality article here on Steemit, thus leading back to my statement of I have to wonder about longevity of Steemit.
I don't mean to sound negative, the platform has a ton of potential, but I am just pointing out possible or probable issues that might affect its success if left unchecked. As you can tell am not one of those bandwagon jumpers, but I am defiantly giving it a fair shake and trial.
