"Self-upvoting one liner comments 100% without anything for the author is not the future.
It might not be polite , but imo is def the future! I want the mass to buy steem and upvote their selfs. So that they actually are able to make some money out of their investment. What's wrong with that? Let them get a piece of the pie.

Who decides that? Is that in the whitepaper? I agree is not really polite. But shit happens.
I feel we should not scare those (potential) investors away.
Peace
Thanks for your thoughts. It's not in the white paper, but I feel that Steemit will probably do better in the long run if it's a give and take scenario, not promoted to be a sponge to justly squeeze ROI from. To each their own of course, but Steemit and Steem price appreciation probably will be aided more by sharing the wealth so authors and curators keep promoting the site with content and word of mouth. Earning rewards is part of the selling point and what drives growth best (for example upvoting your comment). Getting deep here, but Steemit is supposed to be a community. I personally prefer not to have those type of investors you mention.
Thank you 2.
I think i see your point. And a lot of folks think like that. IMO its def not realistic. Do you expect that the mass is sincere and a decent writer? What if you invested a few thousand and nobody votes back? Are they not welcome here? ( i think they are more then welcome) What would you expect them to do? They would be morons not to vote for them self. Self voting can be a last resort to protect your investment.
Amen
