That's just the crypto world. Arts and entertainment is bigger business. More money. Probably a good time to start looking at those billions instead of what the crypto crowd can offer. I've been saying that though for a long time. Hate repeating myself.
The crap on the chain only exists because of the people who sell the votes. If you're ignored for posting crap for six months, you'll probably either improve, or leave. Paid votes place the low quality performers above the high quality performers. Anyone can push a button and buy a vote. That was designed to cater to those with no talent right from the start, which is why it was marketed to those who were struggling and unwillingly to recognize the fact their target audience wasn't interested or the market for their offering was too small. You can place your stuff as high as you want on the trending page or hot list but if you market didn't exist in the first place or if your stuff didn't appeal to anyone before, buying votes won't change a goddamn thing. That's the part they don't tell the amateurs who would first buy the salespitch, then the vote. All they did was offer a miracle diet pill and people expected to lose weight without working out. They're loss, vote sellers gain. That's life.
50/50 is fine. Palnet is doing a fine job of proving that. One of my recent posts earned more USD value in Palcoin than STEEM. That's only because more were willing to vote, so I received more votes, took a smaller percentage, but earned more, because of more votes. A very simple concept. If more people were interested in curating on steemit, that post would have done better on steemit.
curate stuff to fill up boredom.
Get paid to be entertained. Genius.
