I just don't understand, how some people are making 11k on steem with 500 up votes, while others are making 0.05 cents with 30 up votes.
Math doesn't add up
Those with large vested balances (read: whales) have way, wayyyy more voting strength compared to the little guys. This has been my largest complaint since the beginning: whales are completely running the show. Other than that Steemit's on the right track.
Got you, so you just follow the whale and find out what he likes and create posts based on that topic to get up votes from him.
Thanks. I was trying to understand the trend there because it looked confusing.
so it's like reddit gold but worse. lol
