I find it interesting how some people have reacted to the downvoting when they are parts of voting circles as if what they have been doing all this time is brilliant behavior that helps the platform. I am hoping that eventually there will be some kind of consensus of stake where the vast majority of people recognize that what Steem really needs to grow is their support to help build and attract attention to the platform, not extraction from it.
No matter how you've acquired stake, it does not give you a guarantee of future rewards and better people learn that now than when prices are much higher.
It is going to be interesting how the dynamic changes when Steem is up in the several dollars and a single DV is potentially for hundreds worth.
