RE: On the Eve of Hardfork 19, a Look at "Making Money" vs. "Earning Rewards" on Steemit

I think it also comes from a general misunderstanding of how crypto currencies become worth so much more over a long term, that it's not just a fraudulent scheme that will see the top earners sell out and crash the whole machine back to the dust from whence it came.

A valid point, for sure... cryptos are widely misunderstood, and this particular crypto-based social content site is both a blessing and a curse... a "blessing" because it's an ingenious way to introduce the mainstream to cryptos in a very basic and easily understood way... and yet a curse because, as you said, many people don't understand the foundation here and are suspicious "because it doesn't pay in CASH."
