i have a feeling that as blockchain media platforms grow the following will happen:

1. content publishing is free but viewership is'nt
2. viewership will drive rewards and not necessarily upvotes
3. premium content will be driven by upvotes
4. the length of the block chain for a specific article will be directly proportional to the viewership value for premium content
5. the exact opposite will happen for non premium content as the content ages

all in all evolution is an exciting thing!
