It is for this reason that whales need to create more whales with wider knowledge bases! Whales need to make a science whale, an art whale, a mathematics whale, poetry whale, literature whale. We need people that can recognize good content in a variety of fields, not just crypto. Unfortunately right now as things are the whales are very knowledgeable in their areas, but really don't vote enough content up outside of that!
Take my post for example: https://steemit.com/science/@justtryme90/science-lesson-dna-part-1
I did not intend for this post to be entertaining per say, but rather informative. However I don't know that the whales here have a strong basis of knowledge in this field, but I personally do, and I have a degree to back it up as well as a publication record in peer reviewed journals. I don't expect it to garner attention, but rather to exist on this site, such that if someone at some point searched for it, it would be there!
