I sometimes get the feeling that many people don't understand the importance of something like this.
Apart from the obvious advantages to it all it also makes a grand statement to the public about Steem.
As it is an open to "everyone" contest.
Hence the value of this contest is a lot more than what meets the eye.
It's a bit like when we see Coca Cola sponsoring a motor rally or horse races or the Olympic games. It is all in the public and it leaves a very powerful message on the market.
In the crypto markets this is in many ways comparable.
That is how important this is in many comparable ways.
You are right, but not many people know the import of this.
