RE: HF20 Update: Restoring Continuity
This. A freemium model requires basic functionality to be free, and that means a reasonable number of posts, comments, and votes.

I think there is only something like 50K daily active users, so what happens when we have 100K or 250k daily active users, is the number of post, comments and votes going to go done even more. I mean steemit seems to be having problems already. Maybe you can also help me out with what cost is involved with steemit, they keep talking about cost , but have never shared what the cost are.
Just a guess here, as I'm not a programmer of any type, it likely has to do with all actions that either/ both require computation and/or take up space in blocks, which requires resources from the servers running the Steem blockchain (witnesses), both in terms of space and computation. Because the number of actions that the blockchain can handle all at once are limited and some actions require more resources than others, such as posting comments compared to sending Steem from account to account, they are allotted proportional Resource Credit (RC) values.
One thing this will help with is spammy comments and posts, since most accounts that do these types of actions are low in SP and tend to use the strategy of making many posts per day to create a type of "net" to hopefully get lucky on a few votes. Now that the blockchain better accounts for how many resources are being used up by these types of actions, those low SP accounts won't find it as easy to pull off that type of strategy, and that translates into less "trash" (spam) on Steemit and other Steem DApps. At least, in theory.
