The developers of Steemit hold mass amounts of Steem. As Steem goes up in value (based upon Steemit use) and they cash out, they make millions. In addition, as they produce content, they can upvote each other as whales (the most powerful Steem vote value influencers) and make a load of Steem off of the value of these upvotes as well.
