As a matter of fact, I have begun to disregard curation rewards altogether, and I now am trying to focus on minnow frustation, which is growing. As more and more people enter, there will be more people posting. It's not possible that all those posts can end up on the 'hot' page. It's just not possible. The next phase of Steemit might be in a marketplace, or in small tribes that have formed around certain interests. I have decided, just like in the beginning, to refocus my efforts on something that I can control: helping the reputation of those people who provide real value to my publications like the Secret Writer. A commuinty has formed around that content, and it is community that I crave more than anything. Money is important, I am not going to lie, but I do feel better about myself since I have refocused my efforts around trying to solve bigger problems like minnow frustration.....

Yes, I have been thinking along the same lines.
There is minnow frustration and perhaps a focus on less #minnowsunite and more growing of communities. Me, for example, my interests which spring to mind are: family, fatherhood, investing, prepping, crypto and photography. I just invest time into other peoples posts which interest me.
I have only wrote two posts and do not intend to write any more until I am ready and the irony is that I have been gaining followers without writing content on my blog. So I think, just get involved in the community and other things will follow.
I didn't realise until yesterday that my powering up earns compounded interest. This has really fired me up and led me to realise that every bit of steem I can power up is pure gold.
To sum up, if people could just put just a little bitcoin or ether into steemit and get involved, their votes would add up and they can get that compounded interest. It really is so addictive.
I have really got so much from this blog entry, thanks again.
