RE: When Steemit is your job (a dolphin`s confession)
I think you are a kind orca/Dolphin! You definitely care about the community and I definitely see you give a lot .
The thing some people have to realize though is that the actual value of Steem is created by people paying fiat money to invest in Steem. If it wasn't for these people Steem would have no value.
Now these peope as investors have to worry about the risk of this move and thus there has to be a focus on return as well, as you mention. Also why would people put in a lot of money here if they weren't expecting a return ? I don't think anyone would put in a lot of money into Steemit just by giving it away and being nice.
I did not know there is an orca status :-)
Yes, you are right. Steem has its value from the investors who are willing to pay fiat/btc for steem.
But I somehow feel I have a responsibility to the community. I guess that comes from all the support I get and also that one interact with others all the time.
There are useful Steemians, useless ones and the ones who are less the useless = harmful to the platform.
I want to be in the first 2.
I definitely hear what you are saying, and it's a double edged sword I guess, because those whales who are only focused on their individual gains will never see the Steem value reach its full potential value either
I may just be a redfish, I like plankton better, but having a great blogger like you in the #ssg community is great. Cant wait to see some more of your silver and gold posts....
And yes there is an Orca status....
