RE: Is There Still an Uneven Distribution of STEEM Part 2?
I think that everyone who is posting and curating is likely to be getting comparatively richer in proportion to their Steem Power held. Only 1 in 4 Steem in circulation is used to vote, which means that there are large accounts (like the steemit account) plus all the money on Bittrex and Poloniex, that are getting relatively poorer. If you can call having 57m Steem or obtaining huge trading profits poor!
Great point out there. Active users of the platform benefit from liquid Steem held by traders and passive investors.
I always like to point out that Steem has an inflation rate of 10%. (actually less and falling, but it's good to illustrate the point.) If a minnow has 10 Steem and ends the year with 11 Steem, then they are right in line with expected earnings. Anything more than a 10% gain per year (in Steem, not USD valuation) is over performing the platform, and most active Steemians are absolutely crushing a 10% return on their SP.
