This isn't a bad thing for people who've saved a lot of their earnings and invested early (that's how I got about 80% of my Steem Power--buying steem and powering it up). I power up all my payouts and have done so with about 95% or more of what I've earned here since I started. I want to hit 10K by the end of the year.
I suspected things would change over time and probably would be drastic changes eventually but that's what we get when we join something when it's in its infancy. I wasn't around for the days of payouts in the thousands of dollars being common but I'm glad I got in when I did.
I didn't know about @steemhunt and will definitely check it out. Might delegate a bit to it. I've got over half my SP delegated already...
