Great Post! I think we need a middle ground. I am in Steemit for the long term, meaning I do not plan to withdraw any earnings over the next few years. I do see the need for a new Steemit user to be able to blog and earn profits. If the new user decides to make Steemit “the full-time job” then immediate satisfaction is required, or you will lose that new “full time blogger”. One possibility would be to encourage Steemit users to invest into the Steemit platform. Steem power needs to be explained in more detail. Most Steemit users do not fully understand the need to have 500 in Steem Power. The Steemit savings account could offer some type of additional benefit to encourage Steemit users to store funds in the Steemit savings account. The key is to make users feel they are truly connected to and part of Steemit.

Yes the savings definitely needs to have more value to it. As for me I'll just keep vesting my steem because that creates overall value for long-term

So around $200 to jump to the front of line of becoming useful? I'm one of those new bloggers and I hope I don't lose steam, no pun intended, but if the system was explained more I definitely think we'd see even more retention. I'm really not sure what the best strategy is to getting 'seen' and followed. I'm focusing more on converting my followers from legacy platforms like Twitter over to this system, but that doesn't really do much for my Steem power.

Thank You for your fantastic comments. The key to what you have stated is "retention". Ninety percent of users will not be active after 30 days if they feel the platform did not work for them. The key component would be creating value to the average user. If a new user feels like an outcast, then we as a community must work to make them feel welcome and part of the Steemit community. If the “WHALES” stop helping the smaller fish and then we have the very same worldly system, we are attempting to escape! Let’s all work together to build the world’s TOP Blockchain based society! I do think the idea of bringing your Twitter followers to Steemit is excellent! It would be great for you and for them. You must be sure to help them understand Steemit, so they can prosper with you!
