I think those who are investing in crypto is only a part of the issue as that is a small number globally and, they likely don't cae about community or content at all. investors are normally maximalists, which is a large part of the problems we have had already.

I am hoping that we can onboard a lot of users who are crypto curious, but aren't looking to maximize on every action. There are other aspects to it.

That's a fair point. But I wouldn't scoff at investors willing to purchase the token, particularly in the dire financial circumstances that the platform is in right now. One use case that does not disturb PoB on Steem is purchasing Steem Power and renting it out. @exyle has talked about the APR's available in detail. He has rented out some of his SP.

The overall improvements on the platform and the past violent pumps we've had should interest investors and investors are what the platform sorely needs right now.

Not scoff, just not the only target group and likely better approached by some than others.

Absolutely not the only target group.
