I've been on steemit since March, and I think there's a ton of potential here. I appreciate that someone with your steem rank is attempting to talk about this. I see most people in your position just upvoting themselves or getting other whales to upvote them. I find that my biggest issue is that I can put in more time than most whales and receive very little compensation for my time and effort. If I stream for 24hrs straight I receive a dlive upvote (where most of the SBD and SP comes from). Then a bunch of smaller votes. Whereas a whale can make a post and upvote it himself and end up with 1000 SBD. Now I understand I haven't been on the platform very long and I need to "pay my dues", but that's just absurd. A whale can make 10 posts, upvote them and make thousands of dollars in under 10mins of effort. I love this platform, unfortunately the only issue is balance.
