RE: SteemVoter.com Update January 5th 2017

I'm glad to hear this. I hope this hasn't caused you personally a lot of stress but it is necessary that we each stand up for what we believe while at the same time listening to other POV. I think this shows we can move forward from this as long as these words can be backed up with actions.

With over 100 apps built on the blockchain I just don't see how the reward pool could fund them all while also attracting non-business users ie. customers.

I wish the best for steemvoter and those associated.

It depends how much the reward pool grows. Remember it is only fixed in terms of STEEM. The value of STEEM is not fixed and the sky is the limit. Efforts to grow the community and make the platform more useful, if successful, will pay off primarily by making STEEM more valuable.

Also, in time I suspect the role of services like steemvoter will become more narrow, and with that the slice of the reward pool it would command even with support of its users will also narrow (as a fraction; as above, the amount could still increase). It is ultimately a curation tool and with a very large user base (unlike now), not all users will ever want to be curators. Many just want to be users, and will just vote to express their preferences and approval.
