I read it (and upvoted it). Not comfortable with responding quite yet on topic of Ethereum vs. EOS, so that's reason for my silence. I'm also seriously concerned about Steem for reasons you've already addressed in some of your posts thus far. I'm hoping they can be worked out in long-term. Platform could seriously use machine learning to weed out the nonsense since so many people are focused on abusing the system for monetary gain. Even my own posts shouldn't receive the level of compensation that they do (except the ones with fully fleshed out articles) given the number of views I get right now (on Steem specifically). I suspect as I grow on Twitter and other platforms, I will be able to provide the value I currently receive, but it is worth noting regardless.

DAMN bro! I follow you on YouTube and love your comprehensive insight on investing [being somewhat new to investing], but this shows signs of maybe some subconscious Gov conditioning kicking in. Your posts SHOULD have the level of compensation they do. Is it "abuse" or is it leveraging the system to it's full potential? I don't think of it as abuse, I see it as mining, and they are ways smarter at it than me.
How can it be abused when no one is getting screwed as each upvote is like mining? Am I not understanding fully how steem works?
I'm basing my answer on the compensation I've received writing on other platforms such as Seeking Alpha. This is far too much based on views. Should be getting at least 3k or so views on Steemit only before this particular article / video would be worth this much, even if you factor out the curation rewards.
