Ahoy matee, I daresay you snatched yerself some upvoting whales, seeing as how in 3 short hours & a tiny sputtering of replies, your post nonetheless garnered itself $2.8k, hehe..

So, indeed Steem might seem a bit miraculous at times - great innovation that was long-coming, undoubtedly.

The wee bit of caveat one should keep in mind however, [outside of the two elephants in the room - 1) The altcoin token's ever-dizzying price gyrations and massive crash risk ; 2) The fact that no one except the most massive SteemPower whales have practically exclusive access to the vertiginous big bucks upvotes that we see on the front page lol] - is the fact that, well..

Of course, not every human is a capable author. But, the skill barrier of entry, when it comes not to writing prose, but to simply posting make-up video tutorials, or thinly veiled promotion of one's NSFW camgirl channels, well.. that would be much more plausible to realize on a mass userbase scale, in that case.

After all, one merely has to follow Facebook, Twitter, & YouTube's examples, to see this model at work.. and their lower common denominator masses ;)))
