Is there long term earnings potential for posting good Steemit content?
It seems that currently a lot of the up-voting is happening on specific topics that the current user base is most interested in. As the site grows, I suspect that the interests of the community will expand. With the way that the Steemit payouts are structured, will posting content now that future users find interesting have payout? Or does historic content lose its ability to earn after time?
With the upcoming fork/update it will allow posts to keep earning for 30 days after it's posted so there's still a question of timing in there but after that I believe the posts are no longer eligible for earnings.
Thanks. Do you have a link with more info on the upcoming fork/update, or something that describes how this process will work?
