RE: A case for eliminating curation rewards
And Dan's comment is very disappointing (frightening, actually...)
Agreed. I would downvote it to zero if I saw it earlier.

Agree it's frightening. I think curation rewards are the most innovative thing here. Everything else has been done somewhere else. Lots of places don't pay you to vote. Lots of places pay you on views. Curation is only originality of steem (sbd are also original but not being used well)
Steem is a new protocol for rewarding content online. It is a technology that turns the advertising model on its head and give the power back to the people. It hasn't been done anywhere else.
Its similar to a DAO ( decentralized autonomous organization ) where users are the stakholders and the influence is based on their stake in this 'organization'.
If you think curation is the only originality you are missing the point of this technology.
