So you spent six hours carefully writing and re-writing your deep analysis of something important.
You scoured the internet for the most eye catching, royalty-free stock photos. Agonized over each word in the title. Meticulously analyzed and ordered your tags. You sent your pride and joy into the world and then refreshed manically for the next hour, responding diligently to each and every comment. You have done everything right and your post is Steemit perfection.
One day later, you have 48 votes, 11 comments and a $0.33 payout pending.
Your Steemit wage is $0.04/hr.
Yeah. That's a banana.
Tired, irritated and fighting an inexplicable urge to start crying, you scroll through the trending posts with jealous eyes and growing anger. Anger bubbles into rage at the sheer injustice of it all. $1000 for a baked coconut shrimp recipe. $3000 for a picture of a mountain. $5000 for going hiking in Tahiti.
$10,794.56 for "Hi, I'm Kyle" and 646 words writing about writing about Bitcoin.
Who is upvoting this crap? You curse the Gods of social media and open vote list after vote list. The same names keep jumping out at you. @ned @dan @dantheman @berniesanders @smooth @kushed.
It's like opening your school yearbook and seeing every page filled with pictures of the kids that stole your lunch money.
That sucks.
Who are these clowns? And why are they using their Steemit super powers to bestow wealth and fame on breasts instead of brains?
I'm sure you're a nice person. Smart, articulate and full of amazing ideas about how to make the world a better place.
But if you spent 10 hours writing an 18,000 word Steemit post you didn't spend 10 hours doing something fun and interesting. You are probably not the life of the party and your circle of friends is small and tight. Like a sphincter.
Yeah, that's you. I'm the water. Sorry.
Social media lives and dies with herd. If you're with the herd, you live. If you're not, you die.
The herd wears a bikini and goes hiking in the Tahitian jungle.
The Steemwhales know this. They know this because they are smarter than you, which is why they are Steemwhales and you are not.
Probably a Steemwhale.
Out of the 30,000 people using Steemit right now, there are exactly 48 that are interested enough in an analysis to click your button and 480 people that are interested enough in bikinis to click her button.
See what I did there? The bikinis generate 10 times more engagement, probably have 10 times more friends than you do, probably spend 10 times more time on social media and will probably tell 100 times more people about Steemit. Truth.
The Steemwhales are doing you a favor.
Your deep analysis of something important is not going to bring the herd stampeding to Steemit. Steemit needs bodies. Lots of them. Right now the universe it telling you that out of 30,000 people, 48 think you're cool enough to hang out with. That's like 0.16% and means the community values your contributions at about $0.04/hr.
If you haven't caught on yet, let's wrap this up: the bikini's tell their friends who tell their friends who tell their friends and suddenly there's 300,000,000 people here.
Now you're cool enough to hang out with 480,000 articulate intellectuals that get all hot and bothered over your deep analysis of something important. Your wage is $400/hr. You're welcome.
You at $400/hr.
Stop whining about what the Steemwhales are doing and focus on creating awesome content while being awesome to everyone else creating content. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and the stats say more beholders like bikinis, hockey players, surfing, pot and packing lists. Realize that ultimately Steemit will recognize and reward brains and breasts alike, but right now it needs to scale as rapidly as possible to survive.
No go write something that makes you smile!

@dan is a whale because he is the creator of Steem software. He's a great programmer and a blockchain architect, but I don't think he's a social media growth guru.
If you look at other whales, many of them are just miners (mining doesn't make one a social media guru, FYI), or just bought Steem with BitShares.
So I think your post is an unnecessary rationalization.
Things are probably much simpler in reality: Steemwhales upvote pretty much the same stuff normal people would have upvoted (because they are people, not marine mammals), so it works more-or-less well.

Dan is smarter than me. Much, much smarter. There is no universe in which I could create things like Bitshares or Steemit. Not going to happen. The miners are also much smarter than me. Set up a miner? Yeah, also not going to happen. So they are all rich and I'm not because they are smarter than me. I'm can cope because I'm probably better looking. If I squint.
If you read Dan's work on social justice and non-violence you might be surprised at just how astute he is when it comes to how society ticks. I think the entire architecture of Steemit is absolute social media genius.
Now all that said, the majority of whales are dudes that are computer programmers that just made a shitload of money and are now Gods of the newest and hottest social media platform and everyone wants to be their best friend. So you're right, so very, very right.

damn.
Though I have to admit the steemwhales can all learn a bit from the community as the community can learn from them, you do have some damn good points. At least I can say that although I do little things like "fuzzbombs" where I upvote lists of people who are participating in conversation, I definitely upvote a cute girl doing makeup and other things for precisely the reason you say---they get eyeballs which means they bring eyeballs here. And yep, that does mean everyone who thinks they are getting the short end of the stick actually does benefit from the people she brings.
However I will take it one step further and say that we need to help people realize that all the people in their networks (irl or on the inet) have great value and if they all join because of you and upvote your content (that you wouldn't get paid for at all by other social media btw), you all will get paid.
At first it is not much, but one thing I will assure you is that in the 2+ years that most steemwhales have spent (not even talking about out of pocket expenses) making the tech available, each person who joins steemit today could at the very least become a formidable great white (not to mention an army of great whites by their sides).
The power is in your network as much as it is in your content. Steemit actually enables you to empower yourself by empowering others who trust and value you. Name another social network that can do that!
@johnsmith, you will likely do very well here and I don't say that because some might think you are ass kissing. I am saying it because you seem intent on stubbornly producing good content. (By which I mean I laughed a good bit and ended up realizing that one point you made was salient--keep trying and as more users come we will build more strength together).
I cannot speak for all whales, because I am kind of a baby whale I suppose, but I will say that I am very interested at this stage in helping upvote projects that help steem. So if anyone who is upset thinks they have solutions lets talk! If not--go back to facebook people, where you will never get paid anything but will be censored and seen as a useless idiot for Zuck to suck on.

lol thanks @johnsmith. I am indeed a bit crazy in my interest in the idealism (and brilliance) behind bitshares. This is actually the main reason I stuck with BitShares--because the founding fathers would cry if they saw a blockchain with actual separations of power built in.
That is why I stubbornly hold on. I'm so glad for steem and steemit though man. It is going to be great to watch this new graphene chain show the world what the tech we all sacrificed so much for can do ;)

More to the point, the herd wants to see someone in a bikini hiking in a jungle - not a guarantee that any of said herd would ever leave their desks to do that themselves.
I think you're right, that those of us who aren't possessors of Vast Social Networks and relentless marketing skills (targeted content, promotion of said content) (and good looks don't hurt) aren't going to make a living here.
I'm not hot, I don't smoke weed, and my capacity for writing about stuff with limitless hyperbolic enthusiasm is, um, limited.
At this point, I think I'm going to "park and ride." I have Steem and I have Steem Power and I'm watching the value rise. Great! You guys go for it! I'll sit and profit.
But... No, I'm not going to spend 18 hours creating content for $0.00. As you say, you could almost start extracting a psychological profile of the whales by this point, and I'm sure that savvy marketers are coming in and doing just that.

I had managed to attract a lot of votes to one of my posts, but literally only 2 hours before the payout, I stupidly weighed in on some outrageously immature comments from someone who I should have known was the kind of person who was rather into their ability to downvote you and redistribute your rewards elsewhere...
I had long ago learned on facebook not to go anywhere near these kinds of pathetic losers, but having filtered them all out of my feed on facebook, for over a year, I got soft.

The voting system is definitely out of whack. Quality should be rewarded and the way the system has been setup, quality is determined by a small minority of users.
The worst thing about steemit right now is that many of the top earning posts I've seen are about people posting about how much money they've made on steemit! How is that a valuable post? Why would people go to steemit instead of reddit when these are the types of posts plastered on steemit's main page?
I could be wrong but if the shitty quality posts continue to be promoted on steemit then within a couple of months, most people will stop posting here.

Whales upvote the lottery winners because the want them gushing from the rooftops about how amazing Steemit is and how it has changed their lives and made their dreams come true and all they had to do to make thousands of dollars was tell the world what neat person they are. You see where this is going? Who wouldn't want to get paid for being neat? It doesn't matter at all if the content on the main page is crap, there's a lot of dollar signs. People want those dollar signs. Badly. And they know they can write a better post than make-up man.

I do not agree about your concern.
It will take some time, but every other day a new dolphin is born.
so these guys will vote wisely, as they know how hard it is to score a good vote from a whale or dolphin.
In the end, i am sure the system will adjust. i received a vote from dan for my post , it jumped to 5500USD, but he was only the catalyst( https://steemit.com/steemit/@knozaki2015/steemit-has-insane-numbers-check-this-out ) for a post, i put in everything i learned through different tutorials.
after that i put together this post, so others can have a Goldpost too:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@knozaki2015/if-you-want-to-be-sucessful-on-steemit-you-have-to-read-this
Once people start to understand how, when and what to post, these tutorial post will fade away, and quality content you are looking for will be created.
Its too early and not enough users yet, imagine what will happen once user numbers double , 3x, 4x, 10x!
You cant read everything, as the content will flow in like crazy!

Yes, it's all about numbers. The steemwhales are jumpstarting an entire economy with their voting power, but it will dilute over time as more and more people find their way here. I can't wait to see the first $100k post with 10,000 votes.

Hot girls... ahem, young attractive females have ginormous, humongous, ridiculously large and complex social networks that span continents, time and space. And eyes on them wherever they go. Or at least that's my experience, but point taken. I think the steemwhales have done their homework and found that the vast majority of heavy social media users are people that do fun/interesting/fluffy things with their days and they are the low hanging fruit on the adoption tree. The more serious content creators are more effort to attract but I'm sure they're on the roadmap.

I don't think that explains it. A lot of it is just a basic discoverability problem. Any given post is a raindrop in the ocean, if the thumbnail and title don't effectively grab attention, nobody will see your post.
This will cause a race to the bottom, I think. Maybe literally; pretty soon thumbnails will be predominantly attactive body parts, with as much on display as the Steemit rules allow.
Then again, that probably sounds pretty good to some people.

Take reddit. Remove the subreddits. Now add 30,000 redditors. You have Steemit.
Take Steemit. Add substeemits. Now add 234,000,000 Steemians. You have what you are looking for.
It's not that a drop of water in the ocean is hard to find. You just have to have enough eyes looking for your particular drop of water.

Yep, exactly like every other crypto out there... except unlike every other crypto out there 97% of STEEM is currently locked up in Steem Power and can only trickle out to the markets. No whale dumps are possible cause the sphincter is too small. Whale sphincter. I said it.

I think greed and laziness is saving them from themselves. Take note, because greed and laziness make the marble spin.
Most people making bank here don't really understand STEEM/SP/SBD. But they understand that every time they log in the SP balance is a little bigger. That is good. In order to make good into more good, 98% of do-gooders are converting earned STEEM into SP. That's probably going to end up being the smartest financial decision of their lives. So greed is good.
To dump STEEM they have to create an account at an exchange, which invariably will have an unintelligible and vaguely shady sounding name, transfer the STEEM using addresses and memos and other strange things that make no sense, place a market order with a stop limit and sell it for BTC. Then they have to sell BTC for USD in a different market. Then they have to do some KYC/AML bullshit to get their money sent to them somehow. And they have to do all of this without screwing up or they loose their money.
Now, how many of your average Steemers are going to take the time and effort to learn how to do all that? Fewer than most of them, I think. So the bulk of the value stays in the Steemit economy. Hell, I've been doing that crap for years and it doesn't phase me one bit. I already have accounts and highroller withdrawal limits. You know what I'm doing? Powering up. Why? Cause it's so damn easy and I'm kind of lazy. Except with comments, apparently not so lazy with the comments.

Look at this idiot smearing lipstick all over his face! If he got $10k my analysis of something very important is going to be worth millions! Steemit, awaaaay!".

Accounts have just been capped. Bringing the herd is not the goal. Controlling the number of possible payouts vs money available is. It's pure genius. I was saying to myself the other day that this is only going to work until the value of total minnow accounts outweigh the value of money available to pay them AND pay the dolphins and whales too. Those pennies add up. So how do you control this...by controlling the number of accounts that are created according the how much money is available for payout. I'm impressed. Now the system is complete. I know more than this too...but I'm to lazy to explain it all and I need the machine to keep turning. Good job Ned...you did it.

It's sad to see that a lot of good posts that i found here on Steemit received so low attention. Even that I'm new here I formed my opinion already. We all know that life is not always fair but we got used to it. But it makes me angry now cause i'm tired of seen some real bull***t that happens in all social networks today. We see less good content or articles but we see a lot of nudity and stupidity mostly from young girls. The trend for them today is not work hard to deserve a good life but instead they think (and they mostly believe!!!!) that their asses and tits and cute faces are enough to get very well payed. Usually those persons are dumb as hell cause i meet and know a lot of them and their numbers grow everyday. That's terrible. Just go to YouTube, Instagramm, Twitter, Facebook, VK, Twitch to see the top pages. It's getting ridiculous. And why this happens all the time? Cause we - men - allow it and the bigger part of us are dumb fappers who like to watch naked bodies everywhere instead of good, useful, interesting content. If you wanna "jerk off" - go to porn sites and don't flood such interesting projects with this crap. I apologize if i was rude a little in my comment but I got tired of such human stupidity. Steemit deserves a huge well formed community which will bring us interesting and usefull content and it's in our hands to flag and erase such stupid spam topics with naked pics etc. Just do it. That's all i have to say. Thx and sorry if it did hurt someone.
P.S. I'll just leave it here for our friends

On top of it, I was actually advertising Steem on other sites with that meme, which has been viewed by over 20,000 people to date. But Dan didn't approve and took all of my rewards away for the horrible deed of ... knowing what works and trying to help out.
Now you say it in 650 words and are granted $8,214. Congrats, you win teh internets! =b

I am... conflicted. Boobs do that. I see what you did, I see what @dan did. I don't know which is right, or if there is a right. But those boobs. My God.
I will say that sucks and you had a good thing going and I think you were coming about it honestly and with good intentions. I will also say my post did not have boobs. So there is that. I don't what else to say, except thank you for your comments and I upvoted you.

Good Goddess! This post, the commentary, some of which I upvoted, and my aversion to writing posts strategically, is making me head straight for the tequila bottle. Don't get me wrong, I love good discussion and debate, but... To me, Steemit is a revolution. I love revolutions! It's brilliance and it's social reform. I hate the idea that we have to succumb to old world thinking to make it here as writers and supporters of block-chain and crypto-currency. Yuck. But perhaps I'm naive. I read a great article about the foolproof formula for a great post on Steemit. It didn't mention weed or bikini's though, and I'm fresh out of those at the moment. Maybe I'll go get some.

Social reform is hard. The old world is entrenched. Foolproof isn't.

I totally forgot what this post was about. Reading the comments with your replies was more fun. While reading the passionate comment of @williambanks I was totally with him. But, your sensible replies on his and many others' comments makes me think you are right too. That in turn makes me wonder what am I doing here.
I feel like I have wasted a lot of time. I don't even feel sure about my writing now after so many duds.
But, somewhere in those hundreds of comments I also saw a chance for the system to correct itself. For everything to fall in place. For a pattern to emerge which may lead forward.
I am keeping myself optimistic. Hope is the only hope. Thanks for sharing the post. It has a tag of being motivational. Not sure about the post but the comments were true to the tag.

Thank you so much for your appreciation. Actually that post was a bit similar to what I have on Quora. I was very active on Quora a year ago. Got close to 200 followers. Stopped. I thought if I get a bit of success here then I will spread the word about this on Quora. There is hardly anyone talking about steemit there.
I am still optimistic about my brand of content working on steemit. Who knows I may be another Slumdog Millionaire from Mumbai whose story will be written by steemit community. It is good to dream and I do dream.
Thank you so much for your effort on this platform. I never suggested you to read my post. Still you did. That is one great thing about good people here. God bless you.

Thanks, not sure how I should feel about being at the top of the bell curve.... There is a federal non-smoking act in place since 2005 or so that prohibits smoking in federal institutions, public transport and in most pubs and restaurants.
