RE: A Social Media Revolution Has Begun With The Advent Of Steemit.com!
The answer to the question 'where does money come from' is pretty easy to explain: human brains keeping track of who owes them and who they owe. just thought I'd drop that one in there.
The price is determined by the ratio between who wants it, and who wants to sell it, and is set by actual trades.
I agree!
But the new money comes from somewhere, of course...
This is where the inflation rate comes in. I think with an inflation rate of somewhere between 5 and 10 percent, the platform would be a healthy one. In this case, the inflation rate is low enough so it doesn't deter people from holding the currency. And is high enough so that people can make a significant return when creating quality content.
yes, Steem is the first application of the inflation tax to do something other than help make exhorbitant profits on funding both sides of a war... And it more or less makes copyright irrelevant, in the sense that if you post it on steem, you got paid...
Couldn't agree more!
