Is this a good thing though? Doesn't this just confirm the argument that Steemit is just a ponzi scheme?

i.e.
Investors come to Steemit be investors and simply recoup their investment by selling it to others at a markup.
vs
Content creators coming to create content, engage with others and invest in the community.

I don't think it is an either-or scenario, but if Steemit leans to far towards investment/speculation/ponzi then the platform will crash once the market crashes and the investors leave.
