This is what blows my mind about the system. It's not that money hasn't been extracted from the content that we create on traditional social media, it's that the money has been extracted for the elites that govern and manipulate these platforms.

It is totally mindbending how Steemit magic's money out of thin-air, and cryptocurrency in general seems to be re-writing the rules of engagement for exchanging value. These currency's are going to change everything - I envision a blockchain utopia is on the horizon. ;)
