Hey steemit folks, having been pretty active on here lately I've noticed that a lot of people are getting a little discouraged with the amount of votes that they're getting on their posts.
As you can see I haven't been too lucky on here yet since my first 20 bucks from introduceyourself. As frustrating as it is to see no new votes after compulsively checking on votes and not seeing much change, the thing to remember is that this beast is a wild card. Nobody knows what is going to happen yet and if it does take off like a lot of the numbers are saying it will, it's about to surpass bitcoin as mentioned in clayop's post
There is no telling where this thing could go.
Another thing to remember is that the blockchain concept could absolutely skyrocket in terms of mass adoption. Never before has there been this kind of combination in social media where people are compensated for their activity. The possibilities are endless as well. Just take yelp for example. How many people go to yelp to post? If it was incentivized there could be a lot more activity.
After seeing post after post earn thousands of dollars on the trending sections of steemit. It gets frustrating to see the same types of posts over and over i.e. bikinis, crypto. Steemit was founded on generating original content, people are finding that the bulk of that type of info is not getting rewarded at the moment. My strategy is to not lose patience and stick to upvoting the original stuff. I'm banking on the assumption that if we do actually achieve mass adoption, it will get easier to make some cash while at the same time enriching your mind with thoughtful and interesting posts coming from all types of different perspectives.
