Is this a system that eventually eats itself to death? If there are no consumers on those platforms/various front ends because it's more profitable to be paid to look away instead of being paid to look and enjoy content, things tend to fall apart rather quickly. Saw that happen on Steem with the vote selling and delegation pools. As a content creator (currently on break) I'm looking at these numbers thinking placing my work inside those tribes now is pointless considering sometimes half or more of the potential consumers are now being paid to no longer be there to fill that important role. Initially the part of the point of some of these tribes/communities was to help provide more visibility/organization but if very few are looking, or if all that stake is centralized into only a few hands (meaning most of the seats in the stadium are empty except for a few chairs in the front row), then there's not much point in placing the work there. On the other hand, as a consumer, and to be funny, I decided to delegate my LEO token away to a curation bot, then laugh about how they're now paying me to NOT enjoy their platform. Quite similar to a retail store paying me to not enter and make purchases. When it comes to business sense, that concept is comical. There's no denying that. It's also the fastest way to go bankrupt, and that's common sense.

I don't hate this project, by the way. But someone should probably, at some point, at least point out how these delegation projects often interfere and do more harm than good. Maybe the individual earning now sees no harm, but over the long term, projects like these basically make those tokens useless and play a huge role in ensuring very few eyes actually visit those locations online.
