Well like you said distributing wealth to the hands of the poor will not solve the problem. This will only make them "rich" and not wealthy. Wealthiness is a state of mind. I suggest financial education just as R. Kiyosaki has always emphasized that this should be introduced into our curriculum.
The concept of crypto tokens is an amazing one. But like we see on steemit it can to an extent be monopolized where whales do not distribute the rewards fairly enough but to only crypto related posts from other whales. Steemit was meant to me a social media and a crypto-media but right now minnows and dolphins are not sure anymore. It is a giant stride to remove power from the government through the blockchain technology but we also need to remove power from the wealthy as well, as with every new blockchain on the block they encroach first.

I recommend a blockchain ecosystem that will reward equity and fairness and support for the poor and under privileged.

Nice thinking here @damarth
