Over the past few days I've read a lot of people saying the same thing, people are frustrated. Greed is the number one driver on this site, not content. Also, if you have enough steem power you pretty much don't even need anyone anymore and can just self vote yourself. That said, who is going to invest in something like this, especially in a down market? I don't think it would make too much sense. However, if you are currently deriving some income here why stop? You may need the money later, or somehow things may improve. I'm not sure how but you never know. This whole thing may carry on quite a bit longer if the market maintains its appetite for risk.
