it will now come down to what happen on the next hardfork .
Personally i dont think the 50/50 curation will solve the problem.
Too bad my SP is not big enough to make my suggestion get notice.
I believe we should learn from youtube on how they pay.
we can still do the 50/50 curation , but now content creator will get a share of the ads profit if the post generate view.
I myself is a youtuber that cover malaysia numismatic history.
Take this video for example . it continue to generate money since 2017 . When post the same video at Dtube , i only get around 1 to 2 USD.
youtube is not perfect but at least it make everyone who watch its content pay . Here at steemit , it is like working for free and get nothing in return.
