While I understand that some individuals are here to only make money, my comment was stating marketing it this way just sometimes isn’t beneficial.
Who will read the blogs of these content creators? And where does the money come from to pay them? We need more than just content creators who come here to get paid, that’s all I was saying.
Well, I have never understood where the money comes from and I am always grateful the lights did not go out while I was sleeping. I've had about 5 places I posted to go under, and I hope this will not be one of them.
I understand that. The author rewards come from a pool that is mostly from inflation (from those holding stake in STEEM), my point was just that it’s not sustainable in my opinion so we need to attract all sorts of individuals. Not everyone will be able to come here and make a living from posting, but it’s a pretty amazing thing that many can. I just meant to continue to be able to do that, we have to become sustainable. Which means marketing ourselves in such a way. They get paid to blog aspect is great, but it’s not realistic for long term on a wide scale basis. Not saying it’s not a part of the Steem platform though, just that we have more going on then just that etc.
