When you consider that the rewards on this platform is 10X already compared to other platforms it shows that there is lots and lots of earnings and growth potential. No other service gives you these amazing rewards just by posting helpful comments. And it's a fast system too. In the future maybe it will go down a bit to 3x as rewarding but that will still be way better than the other platforms that only chase followers and doesn't build trust and reputation. Because clearly the true value of Steemit is the trust and reputation built in system. :)
