I don't oppose making money, I'm just saying that focusing primarily on that is not a good way of doing marketing.
As we are seeing right now, activity has been declining. My guess is that biggest reason is small rewards. When people are after money, they will abandon the platform if they don't get the money.
Focus should be on user experience. Steemit should be so great to use that people will like it even when they don't make any money. So that when the rewards are low, people wouldn't become less active. Instead they would keep on telling about Steemit to all their friends. If the user experience is great, we would be getting more new users in times like these when it's hard to earn big sums of money.
And when we have truly great user experience and the price will start to go up again, we'll have huge advantages over other platforms.
We're working hard on both of those.
