Exactly. Subjective value theory all the way. Steemit is hugely disruptive and innovative and the incentives are extremely interesting. This experiment will be fun to participate in.

Whitepaper page 15: "Subjective Proof of Work presents an alternative approach to distributing a currency that improves upon fully o​bjective Proof of Work systems such as mining. The applications of a currency implementing s​ubjective proof of work are far wider than any o​bjective proof of work system because they can be applied to build a community around any concept that has a sufficiently defined purpose."

He acts as if he were an elementary math teacher successfully debunking the Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica .... (Principia)

Cryptos, generically speaking, scare the crap out of me , same goes for a few economists that I speak to from time to time.
