The problem starts around year and half before when steemit started fighting with upvoting bots. They trying to make pink bubble portal where " only good content should be upvoted". Then some idiots started downvoting, bans, flags etc. After that big investors just take theirs profit plus invested money back cause They can't see any eady profit on it. You can thinking what You want but when people's can see profit They puting money in. In my opinion They ruined fast growing platform cause there was too many "crying good content kids ". Jealous??
