"As more and more people come onto the platform, the price of Steem goes up but, it also makes Steem harder to earn through the platform and more expensive to buy off it."

I share your thoughts too. I was telling a friend, for every stage of crypto advancement, it gains more value and becomes harder.

If bitcoins becomes exhausted (all in circulation), it would turn gold.

Same as steem. Wen people join in, it becomes harder (just like mining) and it would mean a lot of people people would have to share the few available ones.

But then again, I ask myself, if bringing in people would make the platform more difficult to me, why should I bring them in?

We are humans tho, and this element of greed is always there. Lol. But sure, Happiness shared is more happiness. Riches shared turns into wealth..

But getting more people into the system would make the platform more robust and firm.

And also it would bring more people to read up good post and stay more glued to whatever interests them. So it has both good and bad sides

Sure! With loved ones, I would definitely share. Lol.

Thanks for this info @tarazkp, anticipating to see the next post about this topic
