People are nervous and scared because of the dropping price of STEEM, but I was thinking about this right now, and came to the conclusion that a price crash to as low as possible is actually the best thing that can happen to Steemit as a platform.
Think about the benefits:
The trending page would no longer feature ugly selfies from teamsteem and jerrybanfield, because those guys will be long gone when the price finally crashes.
jerrybanfield will no longer be buying witness votes, which makes the platform look ridiculous to intelligent outsiders.
The Steemit cheerleading posts in general will disappear, as the cheerleaders move on to a new project.
The annoying as fuck "Good post, upvoted and resteemed!" spam will end, as the influx of new users looking to make a quick buck finally go away from polluting the blockchain with their crap.
The amount of content goes down, so it becomes slightly less impossible to find interesting content with the current GUI.
Oh, yeah. Jeff Berwick will also leave. Again.
If and when Steemit marketing does happen, the marketing needs to focus on something other than the money, which was never a sustainable base for marketing anyway.
Content will improve when new users will join because they will join to create content, not to take part in a get rich quick scheme.
So, as you can see, the enjoyability of the platform is inversely proportional to the price of STEEM, so if you want the platform to be more fun to use, pray for the price to crash!

I think this pull-back was necessary and extremely healthy for a number of other reasons, too. After the spectacular rise in crypto this year, the charts desperately needed a huge drop. This rise was so fast it's almost like a gap in the chart that needs to be filled. On top of that, this huge Bitcoin Scaling issue (I call it the Trojan Horse) is causing way too much uncertainty, which markets hate. I don't think there is even an outcome that will lead to improving bitcoin currently on the table, as I've noted in my Trojan Horse article.
I think we'll shake a lot of people off the platform in the near future, but if I had to wager, it won't necessarily be those named in the original post. They may go dormant for a bit though, choosing whatever venue they feel is most profitable for dispensing their individual types of content.

jerrybanfield will no longer be buying witness votes, which makes the platform look ridiculous to intelligent outsiders. - This. I don't know if it's just me but he seems like the biggest pumper and dumper in the crypto market. I saw a video where he commented in the next video he's going to tell you about all these awesome trades, but he wants to get some cheap coins first. I was like wtf, you're basically telling people you know you're advice pumps coins, so you just want to get in cheap so you can dump once people start buying after your announcement. Then you invest in Steemit because you "believe", but I guarantee the first sign of hard times he's going to leave because it's no longer a good "investment". That's not creating value for the platform.
Maybe I'm just jealous, but he just rubs me the wrong way. Maybe I should try and do a deep dive in his material to see if it's justified or not and do a post.

I've looked at a bit of it. You are probably noticing his blunt honesty. The guy is remarkably open about showing a lot of stuff, including his mistakes. If he were a pumper/dumper, he is actively avoiding many opportunities to increase his +EV from scamming. He posts videos listing all his mistakes and faults, gives personal information that is arguably very embarrassing, etc. Stuff like admitting to addictions (of drugs or habit), past ethical transgressions, describes how he used to think of himself as a pretty awful guy. It's possible he's just bad at pumping/dumping, it's possible that he is genuine. My read (as a long-time poker player and researcher) is the latter.
I think his positivity comes from successful recovery from addictions he describes, as that is a typical and healthy attitude to have post therapy for various addictions. This is what you would want to see after psychotherapy or CBT, not that I am suggesting he ever had any.
I am not in a position to pass judgment, and if it wasn't for him, I may not know about Steemit, as I happened across one of his videos on YT when researching altcoins.
This is all assuming the information provided is generally true, which again, is my read, for what it's worth. A one in a million+ con-man could hypothetically create much of this persona, and doctor things like all his tax and bank statements he openly shows.

It makes sense. You assume if they were honest about that, they might be honest about other things.
My main observations remain that he is pursuing a rather ineffective strategy if his goal is to simply profit at any cost (pumping tons of rewards from posts into FB adds for Steemit, divulging certain info, etc.) and his personality is right in line with what you'd call a typical success story for drug rehabilitation therapy (ie. almost delusionally positive at times).
Beyond that, I couldn't say.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Yeah. Can I say an awful thing? Sometimes I'm envious of people who have struggled with and overcome addiction. They're demonstrably better off than they were during their addictions. Sometimes it's hard for me to see if my life is on a peak or in a valley.
Of course, I'm glad I don't suffer from addictions. And I respect how difficult that struggle can be. And I'm sure that from inside their lives, it doesn't actually look like that. But occasionally, I'll just imagine reassuring myself by noting that at least I'm not smoking anymore, and then I'll remember that I never did, really, so it's not like I've accomplished anything ever.
That's darker than I meant it to be.

Yeah good idea to be happy with low payments, let take away the whole idea where Steemit is build on. In my opinion the nice earnings on Steemit are the driving forces for the use of this platform, if you don't like it use Facebook or Reddit.
Further Jeff Berwick and Jerrybanfield where already good content creators before they came to Steemit and brought a big following to the platform. Since they were popular already when they created free content and brought many new adoption to Steemit they deserve to rank high in the hot and trending pages. It proves that rankings managed by a cryptocurrency works.

Also, i think Jerry banfield might be genuine. Sure, hes on trending a lot with somewhat shallow, clickbaity posts, but he's doing A LOT to promote the platform. And he also invested about 20k, also said he'd keep buying as the price went down (and has been doing that) ... So i doubt he'd leave with the price down, he'd at least want a return as much as his investment at the very least.

I have to agree, I think he is genuine as is his positivity. Whether it's fully realistic is another matter.
Interesting fact, he has very close to as many Facebook likes as Jerry Springer. Dude has to be an asset to the platform with how much publicity he generates. Any social media platform that reaches acceptance will be loaded down with "The Secret" type nonsense.
I learned about Steemit through happenstance, running into one of his videos on YT. I'd never heard of him before. None of my posts would be here without him.

I laughed hard, I guess there is more than on ounce of truth in it. However, I invested money in Steem because I want to be able to make a difference here. I see its value dropping, that sucks a little bit to be completely honest. ;-) I am not gonna give you my upvote cause I can use it better for other people and you clearly dont need it hahahaha-

Well, I could leave a nice post, followed, and resteemed..
I hope you're not scared of what someone may think of you. It's a problem when someone can't speak freely because they are scared of the repercussions of flagging. That's akin to Nazi Germany /American hit squad type actions.
Is this the platform we have become?

I am new here but I already agree. The people who are only here to get upvoted and make money are quite obvious and they do clutter things up. Though I've already gotten pretty good at skimming past them.
I've been thinking they should at least abbreviate these things - so "good post, upvoted and resteemed" would be just be "gpuar." if you want to add "followed, follow me back!" that's "ffmb." Then annoying people could just write "gpuarffmb" at the end of everything. Someone could even create a "gpuarffmb" bot that automatically writes it on every post that person reads. Anyway, I'm also kidding, but I see where you're coming from.
