TOP 100 Steemit users takes it all

So here is a breakdown in numbers (numbers taken few hours ago from: http://steemwhales.com/?p=1&s=total):


Steemit - 200 000 000$

2-25 - 90 000 000$

26-50 - 23 000 000$

51-75 - 13 700 000$

76-100 - 8 000 000$


At the same time market cap of Steem is 280 000 000$ according to http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem/ so the numbers are NOT adding up.


People from 2 to 100 owns 135 000 000$ worth of Steem which is nearly half of it's market cap!


Now lets compare this situation with real world economy: 


The top 1% now owns half the world's wealth

Same story I'm worried. How about you?

What can we do? Lets start discussion. I'm going to present solutions in my future posts. I'm thinking of a system that could not only pledge to posts but also startups or social actions.

So what are you suggesting? Should we force redistribution?

I'm not worried at all. This is a distribution curve. Only time will change it.

Tthe question is: in which direction? Right now dole of all 'legends' is rising:

they have usually been on the platform longer and contributed to the community more give it some time it will even out

This is what they say about world inequality too xD For ages.

Yes there could be a another release of the same story under a different hard cover . Ok, maybe just maybe the authors of the fairy tales we currently re read might of influenced the subconscious of the " new few charterers" at the top of the block . Could continue the series with the same story plot line you are predicting . But let's just continuing to turn the pages and read. Maybe these "new few" at the top of block have the foresight to see, creating original content and sharing it freely , will pay them off handsomely . No need to stay greedy , upvoting and posting on Steemit will eventually spread the cheese.
