Even if @haejin helped only 10% of his followers make $5000 to date (which i think is a possible and maybe even an enormous underestimation) that would put the value of of his blog in that ballpark after another 6 months. Add more growth (which has been exponential) and even the most modest figures would dwarf that.
If you have been following him closely you'd see the returns are pretty mind blowing. (for the record I monitor my original pre-haejin portfolio and its worth a third of my current portfolio - in 3 months!).
Also that is a lot of new users coming to steemit with a lot of extra money. I dont understand why thats not good for Steemit. I understand how his growth could be a problematic in the short term but i think after working through it this is a huge boon for steemit.
ps for anyone not up to do the math.. $5000 x 800(%10 of followers)= 4million. Plus at the rate he's adding followers 20,000 followers is not too far away. I know for a fact he's made a lot of people way more than 5k too. Do the math. This is a valuable blog by any estimation.
Not my point.
