Big names with big followings can come here, tell their following to stop donating, spend the money on Hive, power it up. Nobody is going to complain if someone was reaching the trending page daily without the help of current whales and orcas because they encouraged enough followers to come a tip with votes. If a massive following pulled 3 million HP from the market to support one content creator, great! That massive following has NINE MORE VOTES to use in a day. One creator with a business mind posting exclusives here can do a lot. Now scale it up. Purchasing enough HP for a vote worth two cents doesn't rise with the value of the token either. Man I wish I had more time to talk about this right now... I'm just rambling... You get it... And that's cool.
Rather than whales becoming starstruck and voting for big shots, they should teach these big shots about the potential. Otherwise they just take the money and run all while nobody is even leaving comments under their posts here (on Steem when it happened).
