RE: How to Fix Steemit Inequality

in #steemit8 years ago

The fact is that this is still a business, and it works just like a corporation. The major steemholders (like major stock holders) have more power. Also they have more influence, and they probably not only want to keep their wealth, they want to grow themselves and make even more... I don't think anyone except minnows are interested in distributing more wealth evenly...

Sort:  

But I am not talking about wealth redistribution (that is clearly marxist), i am talking about opportunity distribution (which is more capitalist).

If people are not using Steemit, then investors wont buy Steem, it's that simple, Steemit has to be an active social media with many users, and the only way to achieve that is to reward them.

There has to be a compromize, otherwise what good is for the major steemholders, if Steem price goes down. It takes many users interested for the price to go up.

Sorry! I did understand what you meant, I just stated that the wrong way. I just don't think the investors and Steemit will care too much. People will keep using Steemit as long as they are still making a buck or two. Not all of the users will stay, but there will still be people steeming!

But then Steemit will never grow big, paying users is the only thing that we can capitalize on, and it's the big feature that distinguishes us from other social media.

If we fail to enhance this feature then what is the point of Steemit?

I agree, I just said that I don't think anyone in charge of Steemit cares... They are happy right now as whales. I think it's when a lot of people start leaving Steemit that they will either do something to make Steemit better, or move on to the next idea that they have. Kind of a pessimistic view, but that's how businesses work... Anyways, I'm happy that I can make money off of a social media website! Would more money be nice? Duh! But I'm working on my page and it is still growing!

Let's hope they do, because they cant cashout the STEEM POWER and run away, they have to stick around 2 years in either case, so they have to do something in the next 2 years in order to fix this problem or we all go down together.

I already called for stabilizing the price of STEEM first, before anything else, and we can add more feature to improve the public opinion and trust for STEEM.
