IS STEEMIT A PONZI SCHEME? MLM SHARK take all platform?
Steemit prides that it uses blockchain, and everything you post on it as immutable, undeletable and censorship resistant, but is that good enough for content publishers? Ask yourself, do you want to put something anywhere including Steemit that is 'immortal'?, something that never dies or goes away? Pretty scary thought, actually! Everything in the Universe gets changed, destroyed, consumed, and transformed and blockchain technology is no different.
Why are publishers who are earning a lot of Steem $Dollars behave and smell like Sharks. You see sharks in the ocean taking a lions share of food from the water and it appears a select few people on Steemit gets upvoted regardless of how accurate, interesting and meaningful their contents are. It begs the question of good content versus promoted content with very little actual value in life.
Facebook has recently acknowledged that its platform can be misused or has been misused by political Sharks who used it to influence voters perspectives and behaviors. Could the same thing happen to Steemit where the platform only becomes a vehicle for marketing and promotions only with no meaningful connection being developed between content consumers and content publishers. The only motive that remains is the PROFIT/SBD DOLLARS motive? If that is indeed true, then it is sad situation. In 2018, we do not need another time wasting platform sucking up our energy, attention and resources. If Steemit is about establishing equal voice for everyone, small or large content publishers, then it needs to help facilitate that and not let the situation of Facebook happen on a blockchain social platform.
Let's wait and see what value Steemit platform truly brings people in 2018 and beyond.
