It's a strong signal to interact more, because it gives you more chances to get "a slice of the pie".
This statement remember to me a very similar concept stated in a really interesting steemit article I've read times ago. A great parallelism between Steemit and the Roman empire:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@arthuradamson/rome-and-steemit-was-not-built-in-a-day-the-rise-and-fall-of-rome-and-how-steemit-can-learn-from-this-story- "In this way, Steemit CAN NOT be destroyed from outside by its enemies, but only if its own members stop believing in it."
- "The more people join Steemit, the bigger the community grows. The bigger the community grows, the more valuable the “empire” of Steemit, and therefore the higher the value of the Steem coin."
