My thoughts about a granted basic income may be summarized as follows:
- Pros: a stable income might incentivize mass adoption, Steemit could boost its user base with this kind of projects. Even more, users should blog to earn their income. They cannot just passively earn steem.
- Cons: the system is just too game-prone, users might just start to post whatever trash they came up with. This would be a massive harm to the platform. I really good system of curators should be needed to prevent this kind of abuse.
