RE: How to Become a Steemit Whale.....
This is a (un)fucking good post! Seems like history is repeating also on this decentralized platform. I'm also not the type of 'I crawl in your butt for some attention' human and so i decided to post my music here, maybe some other posts too- but i do not expect anything. I'm using also other platforms to distribute my free music for others to download and use it for underlaying videos or do whatever with it.
The more i learn about steemit the more i see the big picture of this game and i realize it is not different from the "real" world. The fish stinks on the head ;) .
But it is still good to discover and support artists - to learn about new things and have some inspiring talks. ....sooo let's keep steeming without the urge to become a immovable whale :)
I totally agree with the post of @daniarnold, the comment of @psionic-tremors and most other comments.
Becoming a whale seems to be impossible if one was not part of #steemit from the early days. But is it a big deal? I don't think so.
More important is what you also described as 'difficult' - find people who are interested in what you have to say and really like to read it - even better they show that by commenting and upvoting.
And yes - I buy upvotes. One reason is a very simple one: upvoted posts seem to be more 'sexy'. More people read it and upvote it again which results in new followers who are interested in what one has to tell.
It's like commercials (which I actually hate): if many like it, it must be good.
And yes - this might be against the mindset of many here but perhaps we need to accept that most people are structured this simple.
You can have the highest value in your words - you need (sometimes idiotic) methods to spread these words if you want to get heard.
Thanks to @psionic-tremors for resteeming this post - otherwise I would not have seen it. From now on I will not miss anything anymore by following @daniarnold :)
Steem on!
I agree with you that if more of people upvote you then you reserve have higher payout and decently higher visibility, but issue for me is massively unequal voting power where single vote could be more than 100 new in platform voters.
Thanx darlin!
