Interesting discussion. I had previously considered it would be valuable to at least show both $ amount and Steem on the posts to combat this very issue, but that is probably less than a half-measure. I think you need that $ amount there because it makes it seem "real" to your prospective audience, but lacking the token amounts renders the amounts volatile. The problem is either way it's easier for people not to "do the math" and get a sense of the total reward, unless you totally remove the $ amount listed. Problem is, if you do that, suddenly when you try to show someone else how it works, they don't have an immediate frame of reference to the effort and reward ratio for creating content. They may not even believe it's real without that $ there. It's a conundrum.
