Hi, I'm deeply concerned with the idea of a 50/50 reward scheme...
The numbers just don't add up. At least this not where we are supposed to be driving the platform. Please read this post, I would love to have your feedback on the subject.

No, but seriously that's a lot of math for a simple conclusion: higher rewards from investors to non-investors will spread the stake faster.
If the goal is just to spread stake faster then it's easy: just increase the payouts/inflation rate to hyperinflation levels, and it'll spread really fast.
And everyone holding Steem will sell it as soon as possible to find an investment that makes sense. Steem value will drop precipitously and ultimately the payouts will become worthless in real value.
I understand that perspective, it will be true if and only if the value of the Steem asset will be the investors' funds locked on the platform as SP or something else... but the reason for any investor to buy Steem is because of the user base that is incentivized to join and stay on the platform.
Why would any be interested in that? I dunno, it depends on the characteristic of the business... mostly advertisement revenues, AI training, big data gathering and analysis, and many other profitable initiatives can be created from the user base. Therefore, as far as I understood when reading the Steem whitepaper and the SMT whitepaper this platform needs to properly incentivize new users to enroll themselves on it.
Thank you for your time :)
