Definitely. Money is a HUGE factor on Steemit. Reddit has a large customer base, and so does Twitter. What attracts people to steemit is the potential rewards that blogging can bring you.

You can't earn directly from twitter and reddit. At least not in the scale that you can with Steemit.

Great points on all sides. I have to agree with @liberosist that we were probably doing the same thing on X social media platform prior to steemit. I also strongly agree the money is a HUGE factor in this.

This is going to be a fun ride to watch play out. I'll bring the popcorn.

I think it depends from person to person. But point taken, it's quite likely that most early steemers are hugely motivated by Steemit. Personally, I continue to do what I used to do on Reddit. But yes, money is one reason I'm giving it a shot, otherwise I'd stay at Reddit.
