I don't like this. It seems you've been duped somewhat by the oft-stated 'one million users +'. The reality is it's 1 mill + accounts. But the vast, vast majority of those are bots and dead users. You're appealing to more like 20,000 users that are actually active at least once this month.
I also dislike the reputation concept. There are some nasty troll-like people with a reputatioin of over 70. Indeed haejin (rep 80) is the highest and only because he is constantly upvoted by a single other account, likely himself. Each post gets roughly 5 comments and slmost everybody feels hee's a waste of bandwidth. Yet he will get the largest reward?
To be c lear, the reputation system is very broken, and the active user claim is untrue
what you said is true but haejin is already earning thousands of dollars daily so this reward doesn't make any difference for him and reputation system is broken because of automated upvotes and unequal distribution of steem power because people prefer to upvote their connections rather than content except some people.

You can buy a big vote for your introduce me post and have a high (50) reputation rating on your first day, the whole thing is very broken
