Hey, guys, there was a time where I made a post about some people and asked you if you know them. Some of you did. They were some Youtubers I am following. And one of them Marques Brownlee known as MKBHD got rewarded as the Creator of the Decade!
Again guys! He got rewarded as the creator of the decade.
Ok, ok I can understand when you are not impressed, especially when you don’t know him. MKBHD is a Tec Youtuber. All his videos are related to tec related Products like Smartphones, Notebooks, Camera gear etc. Tools a modern creator needs or could need in our days.
He started over ten years ago creating YouTube videos led by his passion to create Videos about Tec related products. Back then he didn’t know that one day he will be such a big influencer and earning money with that. Two things I want to highlight.
In my opinion, he is a great example how far your passion can bring you. Without thinking about money or another kind of rewards, just following your passion and sharing that with others. Not only that also his patience to do this for such a long time.
Of course, a time came where he earned money and realised the potential of YouTube which for sure motivates him, but the first years I think there were not big earnings. If you know it better, feel free to correct me, my friend.
As I saw his latest video yesterday, I thought that we here on Steemit also need awards. I know that already author challenges exist which is good. But I mean something bigger, where only the content counts and of course with an attractive prize to win. For example 500 STEEM for the first place? Sounds huge? But I think that would be an interesting motivation. 😏
In my imagination, it is like the witness voting.
People can vote for their creator of the year for example. Keep in mind these are just raw thoughts. Nothing seriously worked out yet.
In my opinion, this would need a separate interface where we can see the different creators in a specific way. And there people can vote for them. STEEM Power doesn’t matter. How much STEEM you have doesn’t matter just how good you are in creating and of course how good can you promote yourself that people vote for you. I know this could be a difficult part to execute in a way that even a newbie would have a chance.
I think if I would have the time this is something I would try to execute on this platform.
Or a Steemit/Dtube trophy when someone reached a certain amount of followers(YouTube play button), yes, I know it doesn’t mean really something. I hope that will change in the future and it will when more people are finding their way into this community and the stay here.
Just some thoughts I want to share with you guys.
