RE: STEEM: The Disproportionate Power Balance with Downvotes

thank you for posting this.
i think this is such an important topic and here’s my biggest issue with it all.
SBI’s biggest ROI is retention.
People feel welcomed. Appreciated. And like they are valued on Steem from getting regular upvotes via SBI.
This is why SBI is so important. It’s ability to make people feel welcomed on the blockchain. Because as we can see, it can be a vicious place when folks don’t agree.
I hope more big players get behind and support SBI and what it does for user retention.

That is right. The biggest ROI is the fact that someone somewhere thought enough to give another a gift. This sharing, supporting and gifting (despite the current negative hit) is something that is not common in the get rich crypto world... It isn't that common in the regular financial world... And look where that has taken us...
If we want to emulate the old money way of doing things... Then SBI is the wrong way and in the wrong place. If we want a different and better way, then SBI can be part of that solution.
There are things that aren't measured in immediate economic terms, but do actually produce huge economic benefits... And as much as I like the boost from a curation account, that is more like the old trickle down model of decredited economic fairy tales if it the only way.
SBI and curation work hand in hand and are two aspects of making this chain work.
