Well that's not a bad idea, but from my point of view the first thing what I would do with steemit is to upgrade whole user interface not only in a desktop version but in mobile version and apps, to make it more intuitive, for example enlarging main buttons with a more telling graphic icons and labels, main story flow with a better navigation, search with autocomplete and other stuff witch users are already using in other platforms like FB, surrounding that with may explanations about steemit currency and its purpose, to be this platform more understandable especially for newbies, don't you think?
100% agree! I really wish this would happen faster, this is 2017 and this site desperatly needs to convey this in their UI. It's still too complicated for many people and just hope they will make a big effort to address this before a competitor does.
