You're very right.
People set the value of your posts and that is thanks to curation. Absolutely right.
However as I stated somewhere in another comment hahaha..it takes me MUCH longer to write my original content than it does to curate that same type of post.
Honestly? Curators don't even have to read. they can just click and vote.
I don't have a problem with rewarding curators with part of the rewards...but as you can see in the chart... It's pretty skewed.
Rich get richer. End of story.
(As far as the same boring content... You should read the story that I wrote exclusively for Steemit... Hehe. It not boring...and got a LOT of steemians very excited for more. I'm currently releasing bits of the sequel daily... Also exclusively for Steemit.)
I suspect for the most part your ideas are correct. I'm just trying to e optimistic now that it seems inevitavoe to pass HF21.
I'm definitely going to check out more of your work.
I do hope this change has the desired effect to reward good content rather than bad content. However its much easier for bad actors to exploit loopholes and just start over if they do something unacceptable.

Well, I can tell you how I will behave.
Less content. More curation
And I can't wait to TRACK how much more money the whales will be making over time.
Every month I'll go into steemworld to show the last 30 days of activity on the same accounts.from my chart (and more!) To show the people EXACTLY where their money went to after these changes are implemented.
When people talk about "oh ...it will eventually be an equilibrium"... you know what they mean?
They mean ...eventually, the people who leave will take all prior knowledge with them and we will only be left with the ones who don't know any better.
But numbers don't lie. And the blockchain is forever.
