I read that the website used to say "money talks", and their appeal was to large investors who wanted to buy influence. SP and steem are literally referred to as influence tokens you can buy. The pay to play aspect was always a major selling point and the coin and platform was intended to be a lure to crypto investors with deep pockets. It kind of worked, but clearly not as much as they had hoped, and sadly not much can be done about a system like this at this point. Only competition will force their hand, so we are left to wait until the threat of extinction instigates real change.

You should come join the discord server, let's build a team and get this thing started right. Give me your insight.
I'll pop in later, discord lags me like hell.
Well, we'll see about that. There are 50k new users on a busy day, so how can we get them on board and help them get started?
