Money for posting - does it look like a great opportunity? Come on, if you have a decent blog anywhere you can monetize it one way or another. Why do you think you efforts will be more valuable here? If you weren't able to monetize you efforts before Steem, what makes you think things have changed?
Money doesn't come out of thin air, when someone is being paid, someone is always paying. Who pays for your posts?
When growth stage continues, the ones who pay are investors and people, investing in their power to become whales. Things may look bright on a growth stage.
When growth stage is over, money will be just redistributed between users. Obviously, whales will be overpaid, usual people will be UNDERPAID.
You think you're smart enough to become a whale until the growth stage is over?
That's just a lottery game. Good luck with that!
