Exactly! I love to write and create content. But would I do it here if there was no potential to earn. Yes and No. I would still post here, but it would only be content directly from a blog to help build my following.
I likely would not create all the additional original content I post here exclusively.
I have a feeling that opinion may be widespread throughout the user base. It certainly is a dilemma steemit will have to face at some point.
Either way I still plan to buy some steem power, but am looking to get it as cheap as possible before the next spike....cus there always is a random spike on any blip of positive news. :-)
