Yeah well, many of the whales can probably earn ~$5000 per day if they wanted too. As Steem is worth $3+ and SBD around $9.. You can do the math.

They can basically earn about $35,000 per day or something like that. USD. However, most whales are not doing that. Most of them are trying to spread the wealth and encourage and support others instead. As they see this as a long-term investment.

If and when Steem and SBD goes up in price, they'll profit and most of them are working towards that instead of short term goals.

If they have 1 million Steem when Steem is worth $1. They'll have 2 million if and when Steem is worth $2. So there's no need to bother with hundreds of dollars for them.

Ahhhh makes sense. Appreciate the info man! You have yourself a new follower :D

that is unless you get cunts like haejin and his buddy upvoting their own shitty content
