RE: The Great Steemit Debate: Tone Vays vs. Jeff Berwick "Ponzi Scheme or Paradigm Shift?"

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I enjoyed both sides of this debate. Something I found today needs to be considered. Stats (today) have 68,624 user accounts. Of those 22,287 have at least 1 post (comments count as a post too). Accounts with more than 10 followers is 2,223. I have been here 1 week, I have provided content 20 times, commented, read tons of material, voted, I have worked it and developed 31 followers. My son made a few blogs and left but got 10 followers. I am a minnow, my vote is worthless. My followers are minnows, worthless. You, dollarvigilante have 1850 followers and are now likely a whale. Unless content is noticed by whales, and more than 1, thats like having your story page in a stack piled 2000 pages high. Will anyone read it? I am having a hard time imagining that 3 or 4 whales might stumble upon my page. So I am wondering what is the purpose of the minnow? As 5-10 thousand new people come thru and then in turn leave, are the minnows purpose to make all this appear legit. There is more effort in bringing new minnows than keeping and growing the ones they have. I WANT TO BE WRONG. Jeff, any thoughts?
