what shows how great distribution is is the fact that i was in top 200 curators for people under 55 rep last week.
"the "gap" between 0 and 2500" is not big but it could also meen 2 years of active posting on steem (maybe even more). so it is a bit relative, but certainly not a bad starting position.
But it isn't Steem, it is PAL. This means that there are a lot more people between the mid and top point that should be able to distribute wider. Essentially, it has a massive middle class at the moment.
