STEEM price is rebounding, I expect the abuse to increase accordingly as well unfortunately. If somehow this platform becomes big, with users in the hundreds of millions, dealing with abuse might be nigh impossible. Serious automatic mechanism for detecting the abuse will need to be implemented (think YouTube bots), but I don't know if there will be enough interest, technical know how to implement such systems.
