RE: The Great Steem Giveaway Is Back - 150 Steem To Be Won!!!
Hello, big rewards for commenting well? Where?
Oh, the rewards are gone. Bye!
However, big subsidies to posts can continue until an account grows large enough from the rewards, and large post reward sizes attract viewers and votes in themselves, at which point the subsidy can be withdrawn.
I would hope that when people feel how good it is to genuinely comment on someone's work and receive that feedback, that maybe, just maybe, it will become a learned behaviour that might just continue.
I'm an eternal optimist, I know :) But really, anything is possible.
It really depends on the needs of the person commenting, many do so because of the need for income, and they will move to whatever income stream is working at the moment. Many would prefer to be able to communicate in their native language.
I see on steemdb that the % of the reward pool given to comments is about the same as miners so it's certainly nothing to sneeze at.
I think that once we solve a few easy issues like global poverty then everyone can comment genuinely on articles they actually want to read. xD
Good one :) Global poverty....hmmm shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
I get it though; I'm not in a position where I need to make money here, so it's easy for me to say. But regardless, I'm the type of person that could never leave inauthentic comments just for the sake of money. I guess however, I could search out posts based on the possible curation award and still genuinely comment there.
I hear what you're saying though and appreciate your thoughts :) Cheers!
