Why Steemit will never be Mainstream

So when I first started with Steemit I was very excited.

As time went on I realized that only the Whales will make money here.

Minnows post and post and post.

We receive pennies because nobody upvotes us.

So little by little minnows will lose interest in Steemit if they do not make money.

This will eventually trickle down to the Whales.

So as I see it this may be the demise of Steemit.

If I am incorrect only time will tell.
