I think part of it is that whales know they have a better chance of encouraging the community to grow if they give newcomers a little extra push upward. I've made around 30 blog posts and only 4 have earned more than $0.40 lol. My first 5 posts had 3 of my top 4. Now I'm fortunate to have 40 followers, though only 2 or 3 with more than 1 penny's worth of influence. Steemit is giving me an excuse to do a little poetry, a little art, and a little autobiography. It's fun being part of the community and having the bonus of the rare chance that something will go semi viral.

I'm slowly trickling in as price continues to dip a bit , I'll try to get up to a penny or two for you :p
Haha thanks. I'm amazed with almost $4000 I'm only worth 2 cents per upvote. Crazy.
