I totally agree with you. You maybe interested in my previous posts, explaining reasons of bot activities, potential solutions, etc.

Just READ eh, let's get that going, I NEED you're help :P 

Couldn't do it by myself. It got pointless to read and record my reads since nobody big upvoted me :P 

I'm with you on everything stated above, but bots aren't the problem they are just harmless victims to people's greed and ideologies( #freethebots ) :P 
So yeah out of those 200 votes 100 are botvotes at 1% so no worries, there aren't enough people with the current ratio of 5:1 you can expect 5 views anything more is tred worthy :D at least if everyone opens 1 piece per day if they open 40 that would change, since then yeah 200 views :| well shame on those lazy twats making a lazy buck :P 

Starting to flame away so I'm going out, I was going to say, [Please(link)](https://steemit.com/steem/@j3dy/re-fyrstikken-re-clayop-think-bigger-what-if-steem-has-1-billion-users-20170303t085306906z) check my comment above and because you mean it, you can also check my blog, I've resigned to writing for now since I want those flag and whatever problems to still for a bit, ad I've already lost the "active" part of my following, since I wasn't posting regularely, I would rather take part in the conversation for now rather than just push through. 

But there are at least 20 posts by me for which I've given 1-3++ hours per piece and I can feel how you do, for me the problem is the constant I have to trend I have to make more mentality. It would be better to just read the gems and find those pieces rather than just spam away daily bites :|

Cheers mate I'm out Good day!

The most interesting part would be to divide the $5756.415 between a billion users. ;)

dude please I like how committed you are and how much you want to see users be given their "fair share"

But is it that simple, what about earning that power?

Wouldn't it be better to keep the current "structure" and build it up, (replicate) so we are 150k users lets get a nice math for everyone so 20-30k active users(THEY NEED THE REWARDS FOR CURATION)
And 5k authors so lets say everything is great and that 2-3 times increase made a 2-3 increase in price of STEEM then there would be ~20k to split around. 
75% goes to the authors so that's a lot(lets factor in comments there as well since commenting is a way of posting) 15k to the authors, for even splits that is yea from 1to 5 average on posting if you add in 10k active users to the posters everything above 5SBD will be "more than your fair share" :| so I can see why flagging is a issue, 5 bucks for 3 hours of work at the minimum(to produce a good engaging read :) ) 

Then we have the other 5k split to curators :D at the current rate that will split 4k to the whales and 1k to 10-15-25k people I think curation rewards need a uplift and I'm working towards making my idea count :)

Fuck the Rich getting richer, fuck your communism :P and also fuck what let' see yeah trying to make this place as bad as others we have around!! 

DO YOU WANT YOUTUBE?!

 IT'S ALREADY THERE MATE

They've updated their comments to have markdown and whatnot

IT'S about making a NEW platform with the best things in mind from the ones before, at least for me :) 

I don't want your rehashes of everything that has already happened and there is already enough of, 

VOTE POWER TO EVERYONE ONE SHARE ONE VOTE, 
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE "NODES" IN A TRUE DECENTRALIZED FASHION, TRUE leadership, not greedy banking politics and whatnot, 

I wouldn't work for a "platform" I work with people PERIOD

COMMA :D :D it's a social-media platform please take a step back and stop turning it into either a socialist-media platform or a marketers-media platform, hold your colors but don't stomp ideologies on everyone, it's great as it is, people are getting 20$ for their posts here and there as much as 300$ currently, but what about when it was more centralized, well that's easy more riches for the rich. 

0.00 for the many and 15k for the rich :P I think the platform has moved a long way from where it was and has been to where it is now, at least some power has been moved around and "delegated" , plus all you're concepts are already implementable, whales can delegate their votes to guilds for instance and people have cried for that too, 

So yeah I don't want a youtube, I WANT a youtube(in the making)/soundcloud(THIRSTY :) )/ cloud hosting/ bloggers(IT)/ business/ instagram(:|)/ facebook (:|) / Twatter (:|)
there are some apps already most of those are already in the making and I would like to see different people "running" different treadmills so to speak. 

Sure have 1 billion users on the [SteemQ](https://steemit.com/steemq/@furion/steemq-a-decentralized-video-platform-for-steem) promoting and watching videos and whatnot, have them on Thirsty's Streams too spread your daily dollar there :P 

BUT 

I want STEEM to be worth bitcoins not dollars :P so 1Steem =1Bitcoin :P = 1SBB :P and I want my 5k payouts already :P from the 1 million user base "hub"(it won't be) SteemIT blog platform with rewards, where 100k people are whales 500k are dolphins and the rest are the fishes we all love :) 

Can't a guy dream :?: So yeah how about that :?:

I think simplicity can help a lot.

[Please(link)](https://steemit.com/steem/@j3dy/re-fyrstikken-re-clayop-think-bigger-what-if-steem-has-1-billion-users-20170303t085306906z) check my comment above and tell me what you think, for me personally I think there should be place for everyone, academia, old dogs :P ,travelers, photographers, whatever, after a "review" I think some things have changed and even though many have left the hype is lost and the price is low, it's a great time to make changes, since it's already about time, but they shouldn't be instant and or so quick to swing from one to another concept. 

If there is a way to keep the original idea intact and build upon it that would be great. :) 

@clayop Yea simplicity should be a goal, but not solely so and not oversimplified either.

Absolutely true. Working well can be viewed as short-term but as longer- and bigger -term too!

It's proportional to Steem's market cap.

Haha cool!

Lol! Peace man ! ✌🤘✌

It looks accurate to me... He did estimate the same market value as current Facebook (our Steem is essentially shares just like Facebook stock) with only half the users of Facebook, an optimistic assumption. The average user account would be worth $394 in total. If we just use the approximately 250 million Steem currently in existence as an example, 1 Steem would be worth about $1500. We need users to drive value, but the value won't scale linearly with each new user.
It just puts it in perspective, while we may moan about whales and early miners, if we truly have a huge success with this platform, there will be plenty of new folks feeling the same resentment about people who are currently minnows!
In truth, the disparity will be even greater in the scenario above. The inflation rate of Steem is set to gradually decrease from the current 9.5% to, I think, just .5% about 20 years in the future. Since the rewards pool is paid from inflation, if the scenario above is 10 years from now, the quantity of Steem daily in the rewards pool is half what it is currently so we're down to 1/20th the current average post payout using the above calculations.
At large scale Steem basically just becomes the internet with an inbuilt currency system. It will be just as difficult to make money on Steemit as it is to launch your own website blog and monetize it. It's work! I think we're all spoiled by the small community, captive audience, and early adopter status we have, whether we realize it or not. I've made more earnings (hypothetical - since it's all still SP) than I ever did with website advertising, affiliate programs, web stores, etc. in the past 15 years.
In a mass adoption scenario, for the average future Steemit user it will be an unpaid social network. Now people are thrilled when a celebrity retweets them, or a YouTube video or Facebook post goes viral. Those will be the standout jackpot moments casual users may see and occasionally experience to see some monetary reward.

Mine is not accurate! :) Just I did think bigger!

Lol

yeah right :P people got from things are unbalanced to socialist everything :D who gave that idea and how did it go from identify problems and think of solutions to, we need more ideologies from a bankrupt past :P (and I like socialism and communism not in their real forms tho :P)
