RE: Hardfork 21 and Next Steps.

Answers aren't just black and white. I voted that comment by 100% as his opinion was a refreshing change from what I usually see as comments.

If you read my post, you know that I value content creators. But this ecosystem will not work if stakeholders (curators) are not treated properly.

And there is indeed a certain "entitlement" among some content creators when they write something along the lines of ".. but I deserve 75% of the reward pool. Otherwise, how should I pay my bills?". If a content creator on Steem can pay their bills with their author rewards, that's a small wonder but it's not a guarantee nor a standard and least of all very realistic for the majority.

In contrast, someone who invests money into STEEM or someone who is investing opportunity costs by being staked in STEEM and not selling it is usually not doing this for charity reason; rather seeking financial goals. So when that person feels that their investment isn't paying off, then we've got a problem. Which is what part of HF21 is trying to fix/improve.
