The recent price of Steem has undoubtedly created a greater gap between the minnows and the whales in terms of the distribution of wealth, but I believe that the recent influx of new registrations indicates that there is still plenty of room for the community to grow because we need all different types of people (not just investors and the creatives) to sustain the population and economic boom that cryptocurrency 2.0 will bring.
Look at people like and how he is spreading the word of steemit not just by writing posts but travelling around to meet other steemians and introducing it to new people, or
who has managed to gather a large following by helping new steemians (even though he is also very new here). I think it shows that there is a path for each of us here on Steemit, and it is important for each of us to find the path that suits us (or create a new path). Just like in the outside world we shouldn't measure our worth or progress by comparing ourselves to other people because those are not the values (wealth, 'success', reputation, etc.) that defines us as individuals.
We are all EQUAL here on Steemit - no amount of SP or SBD can change that fact. Everyone has the potential to impact others here positively or negatively, from the smallest act of kindness in person or simply a comment on a post that deserves more views.
We are all INTELLIGENT here on Steemit - and I mean intelligence in the sense that we all have different ability to learn and apply our skills here. Whether you are an artist, scientist, engineer, entrepreneur, mother, brother or a citizen of the world, your life experience and the story that you weave into the blockchain makes a difference to other people in ways that you can't always imagine.
I don't believe anyone here has the power to make you feel less equal than others here on Steemit. No amount of SP or SBD can make you a better or worse person than someone else because we are all EQUAL. Let your intelligence and star shine brightly on Steemit, the sky is big and high enough here for everyone to see.
