Curie is a witness and pays her curators,reviewers and node managers for their work, not to talk of maintenance. Being a witness, you get paid in steempower. In what other ways would you expect curie to fund her activities if not by her earnings from her wittness work and SP earned from Curation. Hence the need for the periodic power down.

When @curie started it paid its curators by upvoting crap posts with @ned's posting key.
I dont know when it got some shame and stopped doing that, but clearly the community doesnt value its service even now, if it ever did.
Their decision to only support approved corporate speak excludes those of us with opinions.
Until they support dissent and shitposts they can kiss my a**.
And its looking like the vast majority of users agrees with me in not valuing their contributions.
Well, I obviously wasn't here by then ( if that's what really happened). But now, I'm saying what I know and the fact that it is doing a lot of good for this platform.
Gangs reward their members.
Steem is a community pool, ganging up to reward the few comes at the expense of the many.
You dont have to accept that fact, but your denial of the truth doesnt make it any less true.
Its a blockchain, if you have any questions the truth is there for all to see.
You really dont have to look any farther than @curie's own rules.
Who do they say need not apply?
Well, looks like your mind is made on this already...haha. I can only advice you try and unlearn what you think you know before now and run a new query on curie.
All i got to do is look in their wallet and their policies to know that they treat folks that don't kiss their asses like second class citizens and that they have enough power to take pennies from every vote made for anybody.
Perhaps you should pull your lips off their ass and look around?
Try to understand the math, eh?
I give up...Smiles
When you decide you prefer reality to your comfortable lies, i will be here.
