I don't post very often, but when I do, I purchase some Steem and spend it (promotion bots), if more people did this, the price of Steem would increase.

Creating "original content" and then cashing out your earnings, puts a downward pressure on the Steem price.

"Most curators are looking for original work"

NO unfortunately the majority of curators are looking for a return on their vote and following the money! Get real please!

I wonder why nobody invests in this place?

If you want more people to invest in Steem then collectively, we Steemian's need to stop doing stuff that is detrimental to investing!

1. Stop blaming bid bots for everything, they drive the creation & money flow of Steem (growth) and put an upward pressure on the Steem price!

2. Stop censoring / scaring away users indiscriminately @amnlive is a recent example.

3. Stop giving bid bot users a bad experience, by robbing them first with no capped losses and then finishing them off with indiscriminate flagging.
