We all want to see steem go to the moon.
100usd steem is the dream of every stake holder.
But, lets be realistic for a minute.
Pie in the sky may be the stuff that brings in the bigger fools, but even they figure it out once they've had time to learn the ropes.

Would you pay 1000usd for what 10sp gives you?
Would you pay 1000usd for 100 sp?
To pay even half that is not attractive to anybody that has had time to figure out how steem works.
I have all my limit trades set at under a dollar.
I was all under .5sbd, but that looks pretty unlikely at this point.
You've seen how hard it is to accumulate sp as the price rises.
At 100usd per steem accumulating sp will be a pipe dream.
A 100sbd post will pay 50sbd and .5sp.
How many 100sbd posts have you had?
A 5sbd post will pay 2.5sbd and .025sp.
Any hope for a redfish to become a minnow at that rate?
I dont see any.
.50sbd posts wont even register on the interface at payout.
Those are more likely for redfish than any 5sbd payouts.
So, where does that leave us?
Do we abandon the platform to the whales and their sychophants?
Nearly a million of us already have.
It is my opinion that as long as the platform is dominated by accounts with more than 500mv anybody with less than 1mv is wasting their time.
We could have corrected this with the whale experiment, 4 posts per day soft limits, and time to grow more dolphins, but stinc was quick to put the kibosh on that.
Now there is no way they admit their mistakes and fix the selfvoting, vote selling, and poor distribution problems their 'fix' gave us, absent a large dose of maturity they have yet to demonstrate possessing.
It doesnt appear to me that the math of steem allows for extremely large investments.
Those accounts suck up too much from the pool.
If we want to be a billionaires boys club we should stop selling ourselves as a mass market platform.
Currently we are not attractive to the masses.
Mass adoption of the currency doesnt appear to be stinc's goal.
They cant favor the large investors at the expense of the little investors and expect to be adopted by the masses.
I will admit that at this point the billionaires club looks better to me, too.
Instead of trying to change the world, selling out gets me a lambo!
Pardon me while i go remove all the mirrors in my house, i hope my beard doesnt start itching, i've never shaved before without looking at myself in the mirror.
