Since I first started on Steemit, I've been thinking about the impact of the $ here. I went 24 hours with them hidden via CSS, and today I just started a 3-day challenge/contest/discussion asking people to write their own post in response to "Where does the money come from?" You can find it here. I'd really love to see a lot of responses because I think each and every Steemit user who gets asked this question after posting something successful will need to have their own well thought out answer. The more accurately we can answer this question instead of spreading FUD or irrational excitement, the stronger the foundation for this community will be.
