Actually we don't guarantee revenue, we only guarantee upvotes. Whether those convert into revenue at payout is beyond our control. We have always resisted making promises of actual returns, and when estimates have been given, they are always given as depending on STEEM price and reward pool behavior.
In fact, the earliest criticisms raised by whales were because we did not guarantee any level of returns.
SBI is more like earmarking SP for dedicated support of accounts you choose. We can't guarantee that the support has any value, any more than you can guarantee that an upvote on this comment will have any value after it gets countered by mmkk. In most cases the support will have value, of course.
hahaha!!!
Than WTF does mmkk care? Ha! He was in the green and he never bought in. He was guaranteed to make profit! Silly people with little brains.
He believes that our use of the reward pool takes value away from his use of the reward pool, and does not consider the impact his Dv might have on overall Steem ecosystem.
If lots of people quit because of his DV, he wins but Steem loses. If lots of people double down and power up to support each other and SBI against him, he loses but Steem wins.
Maybe he is a crisis actor?
We will countinue to use the SBI program, Joseph. We don't really give a damn shit of his twisted vision.
