This had me thinking. One thing have observed over the months is that most people coming into the platform are coming for the money. Their activities on steemit, if it isn't profitable to them, they don't do it, regardless of how positively it might affect others.

I was talking to a friend earlier today, I asked him why he hasn't been active on the platform, he replied by saying the current value of SBD wasn't as it used to be, it has plummeted. He went in to say he is seriously considering powering down since Steem is more valuable.
Most of us came for the money, but we changed our minds, when we understood what steemit stood for. It's a community helping each other, and it's just so beautiful.
