"Extractor" will be another subjective term - it will be different for everyone.
To me, an "Extractor" is someone who has consistently received Author Rewards, Powered down 100% and then shipped them to an exchange. For months/years.
What you are describing is a savvy "Trader" in my opinion.
They brought in money... made a trade... took it out...
What I described was... Created CONTENT, received REWARDS, took it out.
They used their Content to earn Hive and Extract it - vs putting in $$$, trading, pulling out profit.
But that's just my opinion 😅
Yea im with your same view 😄
