RE: All your steem are belong to us
From what I am seeing there should be more people buying steem and raising the price. It's crazy seeing people waste time and money to LOSE money on a bot. Recently it seems like you are lucky to get a 10% ROI but some bots seem to lose money every single round! That might be my next round of advocacy. I think I'm pretty good at bidding but even I have been having some bad rounds very recently.
Not everyone has the same goal. Some are going to visibility, rep and viewers, others are going for money. There is no reason to "Rail Against" it, in my opinion, it is a self-correcting problem as you point out. As more people try to game them, they are less profitable and they will eventually become the tools for visibility that was intended.
I think a higher steem price would be an overall benefit the platform. Hopefully we can eventually improve the trending page as well. Overall though I think this is a good platform and it seems like I'm more bullish about it than Ned. lol
I like the trending page now much more than before. I think if most people went and looked, they would be surprised. Not saying it is perfect, but it is way better than it used to be.
I agree that it is not as bad as most people seem to think. I agree that it has improved and I remember when Jerry had a post about the good things about steem and it was #1 and I really thought it should have been number one.
