Hi @lifestonetrading. I wouldn't say separating writers, per se, but isn't that what we are already doing on here with the different communities? Everyone is in one community or another, which is as comparable to being in their "own niche". There are community support for writers, homesteaders, video content creators, developers...the list goes on.
I am a fan of steemmonsters because an opportunity is now given to the non-content creators. People can play and earn. The current rewards system is not user-friendly to the average user. A "blogger" have to rely on visibility, networking, and their content to be deemed "of quality" by another user in order to be successful on this platform. Steemmonsters is changing the rules on that, which I feel will result in user engagement, investment into STEEM, and ultimately, user retention.
I understand what you are saying, but I would prefer Steemit to specialize in their field. It needs to decide what niche community it wants to cater to. Being spread out all over the place is a bad idea in my opinion.
With Smart Media Tokens this might change, but what is the difference between this and crypto kitties? Too many cryptos are trying to wear too many hats in order to ramp up adoption.
I want 10 cryptos that are specialized in their craft instead of 100 cryptos that all look the same.
