RE: If I were to start on Steem from scratch
I wasn't here when there were insane rewards for posts and comments and no bidbots yet. Now...it is what it is I guess.
I wasn't here for insane rewards either. The first 6 months were a lot of 0 - 5 dollar posts. there were a few higher around the 10-15 that were during 7c steem though.
THe worst thing about most of the bidbots is who is behind them in my opinion. Perhaps with different people I might have used them. The community ones are/will be different again.
Now I think all bidbots are going to have to move toward lower and lower profit to compete.
And once the RC markets, SMT curation investment, oracles and the like come, it changes again.
It's proof of brain, not proof of bribe.
Lol, yeah :D
It changes...but everyone's talking about SMT's like they're going to change the world and be so great... I think they will change things here, but I'm not sure I buy into the idea that they will change everything so immensely. They will likely take months to be adopted by most tools after they are finally implemented.
Most are going to fail, especially the early ones. But the market of them and the RC pools bites into the draw of bidbots potentially so changes it again. Some SMTs might use an oracle to not distribute to bought votes. Who knows.
