RE: Where does all the money come from on Steemit fully answered -- Can it continue? -- Absolutely yes!
Absolutely, there is no simple recipe, we can only experiment and add more influencing factors in order to refine the model - see Ashby's law of requisite variety.
Medium manages somehow - it measures views, time spent on an article (probably in a pretty crude way, I don't know exactly how).
I believe Steemit should draw inspiration from Medium and become more like it in order to improve. Once it reached that level it can and should strive to become even better.
Ohhh shit I'm going down a
juicy rabbit hole, thank you!
I agree with this, though it seems quite a big task to implement what aspects of Medium's reward structure, especially when we don't know the specifics.
You're welcome. You'll probably stumble upon Stafford Beer, too. If not, check out this comment of mine on a different post
I wans't referring to Medium's reward structure. I think the blockchain based reward structure is superior. I was referring to Medium's algorithm that somehow seems to bring up valuable content for readers to read.
In Steemit we have the crude system of tags and the "trending" and "hot" and "promoted" pages that are basically useless. That's what needs improving
