Here is an interesting subject or maybe you can call it food for thought. Steem is a globally traded currency on a few different exchanges. Basically You and I are buying shares (because that is really what this is. A stock market using coins). So does this make every person on this site and all people who own Steemit a stockholder. If so this means you own a very very small part of the company you buy into, in this case Steemit. If you look at it this way, your best bet is to keep collecting and save your shares so the value continues to rise and the company bgins to flourish into a global power like Facebook or twitter. Neither of these companies offer anything to their content creators/publishers. Stick with Steem there is so much potential here.
