Yea but I am talking about some actual advertising. Not community driven targeted efforts. Run a commercial or two about how steemit is going to do it right where facebook and youtube failed, stuff like that. My hope is they knew things couldn't scale anyways so they are getting that right now, but I am not confident that is what is going on.

What I worry about is pushing the monetary aspect. That was a problem with the people certain users were bringing in. They could even just pay a few YouTubers, and that would bring in a ton, and give brand recognition, but it would always come back to the people who have managed to get insane payouts on certain posts.
Maybe, but the times have changed. I think people can see that payouts were attached to the price of steem as well as number of people voting etc. I mean paying a couple famous youtubers a salary to post here would be a pretty good use of money...
Depends on the YouTuber. We have enough horrible people already. We shouldn't try to bring more just because they're popular on YouTube. But I'm sure there are plenty that we could bring over that we don't have to feel like we're making a deal with the devil.
I think the most important thing would be finding ones that a large portion of their audience is likely to follow over here... That would be their value to steem.
