No it doesn't but at the same time, this article is about the entire crypto-scene. While some percentage of users on steem can add value, ost users of crypto aren't looking to add anything in. This makes it difficult for them to be part of a community where individuals should perform something for reward. For most, it is more comfortable to sit behind screens and look at charts.
I do both. :P
I think that the group over at steem.chat and certain discord groups are communities...though TBH I think some of the "communities" aren't actually anything of the sort, and are just a group acting for self interest. So, yeah, there are a lot of self-interested slobs on here...but there are also smaller communities, and a larger community in Steem...and I think over time that will develop more. Right now it's all new. It might be that we slough off a lot of those self interested POS with every crash. I can think of a few high profile ones that disappeared. Good riddance.
Yeah, there are many and I don't ind losing some unnecessary weight.
