RE: WritCoin - Creative Proof of Brain
You give us here a great idea and some very interesting food for thought!
In my humble opinion, the basic problem of Steemit platform is that it's like a market where everyone is a seller.
In a "normal" demand and supply structure, there are some people that provide something, in this case creative writing, and some other, hopefully more, people that enjoys this content, giving a fee in return.
In Steemit, every account is a content creator (quality may vary), and a reward gatherer.
This leads to the current situation, in which the ability to use the mechanism to gather more reward pays more than the quality of the content created.
I do not see easy solutions, if not apply a strict code of ethics and set a good example, but this will not stop the "crafty" behavior.
My two cents! ;)
Thanks for reading @marcoriccardi I'm glad this article provided food for thought. I think that, due to the decentralized nature of steemit, it is up to us to try and find the solutions to these problems.

The point you raise is valid. I'm not sure yet how the concept of writcoin could help but I'm gonna keep developing these concepts, even if only in my head for now :-)
