Right now I believe we are in a limbo period between the old system of rewarding content creators and the new system where a entrepreneurs will tokenise the web through SMT's using the Steem blockchain.
I’ve never been particularly entrepreneurial so once the SMT phase of the Steem blockchain is going strong, I may have to just have an income stream from delegating the SP that I’ve built up.
But if SMT’s really take off, that could end up being a rather nice passive income stream.
