I'm hopeful because I've seen firsthand that there are atleast a couple of whales who are working hard to engage with the community and reward quality content with proper curation. There are also a few whales who give away "Whaletokens" for contests and other community stuff and these tokens can be used in exchange for whale votes.

At the end of the day, while they may be only a minority - There ARE some Whales who are distributing rewards so there is some potential for upward mobility on the platform and that gives me some hope. I have scored a couple of decent shares (votes) though I am still very much a Minnow there.
