Great article!
In a comment discussion elsewhere (mostly about the new coins focusing on Universal Basic Income) one of the points that came up is that Steemit/Steem is actually at the forefront of creating some version of UBI, based on this thing called "The Attention Economy." But the main point was that we're developing these ideas as a peer-to-peer network, not as some lame and doomed-to-fail government structure. And that's a really cool thought...
It is! It reminds me of Dan's work on the subject. His article on his form of UBI totally change my way of seeing economy.
It's so difficult to foresee Steem's future. Weirdly enough I never even used the expression "Attention Economy" yet I can't hardly think of any expression that better sum up Steem.
Profitable P2P Attention Economy, for the people by the people!

By the way we always put our attention on something. Whenever our attention wanders then it means that things that were suppose to be for us doesn't suit us or wasn't providing us with joy as much as putting our attention on something else.
And yes Steem feels like magic.
