I think a few people are in the throws of development on this sort of thing.
One has to ask, where the money would come from though..!?

The idea is good. The money can come from the income of the referred users, in a way that it not hurts the system and the referred users. Because os this, the amount must be very low as 0.1% to 1%.
And, only Steem Dollars can enter in a referral system and must only generate revenue for the referrer if the referral is active and produces content that generates the income.
Any other way I do not believe it would be possible or interesting. Refer a lot of people only to say "Ohhh! Steemit has 100 million users!" has no value for the system. The value must be generated by the content.
My 2 cents...
Exactly! That's why I mentioned having a restriction on when you can earn rewards. For example, a post has to reach a certain number of Steem Dollars earned before the person that referred them is eligible for rewards - to boost quality and not just quantity!
That's a fair point, and it was something I thought about, but to determine that I'd have to speak to some developers or whales and see what would be possible.
maybe from the liquidation rewards which are now disabled?
