Well, I do remember saying I've wanted to expand for quite awhile.
Some people are really going to need to step up their game. I'd like to see it attract the best of the best.
You'll have to wait and see how that reward curve and everything else together functions. There's a lot of misinformation floating around.
And just let me put it this way. If they can't find that sweet spot, so people can change their spending habits and support their favorites on a budget, they place loses out on a lot of money. Look at the bigger picture. People won't be acting the way they do today, after the changes. Piling on posts only means you get LESS rewards unless you time it perfectly. If everything goes full auto mode to the same people every time, regardless of content, that will be sitting there right in front of us every day. There's no hiding it, and people will downvote. And people will have to get used to that. Youtube videos receive thousands of downvotes. Too much of that and the demonitize police come knocking.
If some content producers attracted thousands of paying voters, they wouldn't need the votes of existing members. Also, why would anyone downvote that? If someone was responsible for a crowd of purchasing 2.5 million Steem, we ALL earn money.
We can't focus on giving everyone an equal share or something like that. We need more money potentially coming in than what the content producer could potentially sell. Get to that point and we don't even need to post to earn.
Also, with these new tribes and communites forming, you need to realize I made about $40 here before deductions and about $17 after deductions placing this work in the other two tribes.
So much is changing, it's hard to keep up. Some of my posts have made more on Palnet than they did on Steemit lately.
Do you have any tokens staked on Steem Engine?
