RE: @surfermarly is right to say that greed has overtaken community spirit on Steemit.

in #zappl7 years ago

Presently it's "of the devs, by the devs, and for the devs." I think there needs to be a rise of a middle class of content providers/curators to save the community just like the rise of a middle class saved capitalist societies from socialist revolutions. They need to tweak the platform to funnel more steempower to more people. Actually ALLOW the labors of the middle class to be rewarding. Heck, why not delegate some steempower from the pool every time someone rises one point in reputation, then extract that slowly later on when their rep gets to, say 53 (notice how I put it just out of reach of yourself LOL), and don't let them cash out their steempower until they reach that point. Make it a loan and call the loan back if they don't reach some benchmarks in a timely manner that show they are engaged in the community. I think we can all agree that reputation indicates value to the community much better than steempower.
