My question is totally different then his earnings. Whatever he earn is his capabilities and steem allow. Now, new HF has acting differently and the new question is arrived that why anyone will invest in steem, when other good ROI option in market?@okean123 Thanks for reply.

Sorry then I misunderstood your question.

To answer your other concern: The ROI for powering up steem is now 100% higher.

This is not the case 100%. It is just showing value actually, it is lower than previous HF practically.

The curation rewards were raised from 25% to 50%. In practice they are even much higher if you curate well (vote on content that gets voted on later and thus achieves a high payout)

This is for general steemians, but in practically it is less than previous 25%. This i wrote above. Try to earn more than previous HF and tell me. There are 10% less reward for POB, the reward curve and downvotes etc. You will find practically less curation than previous HF.
These are the figures to let us make divert / fool.

We are talking about why to stake STEEM and not how much a steemian can earn through posting etc.

The new reward curve helps you if you curate succesfully as I said above.

You will find practically less curation than previous HF.

This is simply not true. Look at my account @russiandownload for example, this wouldn't have been possible before the hf

OK. Then Enjoy. Cheers!

That’s pretty common for 90% of steem

Then who's buying all the Steem? Steemit, Inc is selling to keep the lights on as well as many witnesses because they have costs to cover. If most high-earning bloggers are selling most of what they earn, too, then who's buying? Why hasn't the price gone to zero, yet?

I have no idea. But Steemit Inc’s programmatic selling isn’t only a portion of what is sold monthly and not even the largest portion.

There is still some utility to steem like steem monsters, bid bots was a huge demand to buy and own steem believe it or not, now there is some demand for curation rewards

Did people really buy STEEM to power up and to sell votes by delegating to bid bots? I doubt that. Practically all the whales were created when STEEM was mined back in mid-2016. They were also the largest vote sellers. It's never been the case that investors have been clamoring to buy STEEM to power up and sell votes.

The price of STEEM seems to move in tandem with the rest of the crypto space. It's simply speculative demand from unknown sources. Much of it languishes on exchanges. Only the liquid part can be bought and sold and the spot price is determined by that.

They bought and held steem to buy votes. The majority of the liquid steem on platform was buying votes.

But if they mostly sold their gains, then there was no net benefit. What you earn from bid bot votes you can power down to buy new votes with. Positive ROI votes can make this profitable after a small initial investment. @likwid allows one to get all rewards in liquid STEEM. That decreases the required initial investment. That precisely is the essence of bid bot abuse, which accounts for a lot of the decline in STEEM's Coinmarketcap rank.
