That would create 20 more people who have to do the same thing just to be able to compete, then 20 more, then 20 more. Eventually, people become dependent on, let's say, 10 accounts that run bots. So, all of that power gets centralized into 20 hands because those bots make the money and increase the SP. The bottom 20 push the top 20 out of the way by spending more, that gives more power to the bots, the new bottom gets mad and pushes the new top 20 out of the way by spending more, so on and so forth until being in the top 20 is out of reach for the average member, so they leave, along with their eyes, many follow and eventually those top 20 are spending thousands of dollars to promote their work in front of an empty house. The value of the tokens plummet because the platform falls in on itself and everyone loses. The biggest losers turn out the be the one's who started this vicious cycle. You got 20 hands holding majority of the tokens, they start selling to save their skin and that's it. Done deal.

Isn't that already the situation now?
Are users leaving? I have no idea have only be posting for a few months.
People come and go all the time for many different reasons. I didn't really come here to share my opinion on these topics.
You just defined a ponzi scheme..,now i understand how bad this could be
Everything in this comment SCREAMS pyramid scheme.....I thought this was a place to come and write and potentially get paid. Not come and pay to be seen. I came to make money not spend it. Even if it takes a while. I like writing and I enjoy it. I don't want to not be seen bc some other yahoo bought his seat at the cool kids table. And I find it LESS encouraging reading on someone's article that my effort to write a nice article is null and void bc I'm not paying to promote it. If you think that this dude is wrong, what can YOU tell me and others in response to it? I mean what do you think I, as a newer writer, should do instead? You seem to think you have a better idea of what to do.
