90 Day Steem Power delegations available from BlockTrades

We now have an inventory of just under 400K SP available for sale as 90-day Steem Power delegations. Because our supply remains limited, only 90 day delegations are available for purchase.

Login before buying Steem Power delegation

To enable better management of Steem delegations purchased through BlockTrades, we strongly recommend you create an account on BlockTrades and login before getting a deposit address to buy your delegations. This will also make it easier for our service to inform you when your delegation is about to expire (we send out an email to the delegation holder approximately 2 days before the delegation expires).

More benefits for account holders

If you create an account on BlockTrades and sign in before you get your deposit addresses, our system can keep a history of all the transactions made to those deposit addresses. This can be very useful for accounting purposes.

Also, in the future, we plan to offer additional benefits to account holders based on the volume of business that has been done with our site, so there are many reasons to create an account.

Edit: More info about Steem Power delegations available from BlockTrades

Since I've already seen several questions from new Steemians about what a delegation is, I wanted to repeat some old info that's probably known by most of our customers:

What is a Steem Power delegation?

It is a temporary lease of Steem Power (SP). You can buy a delegation to temporarily increase the strength of your votes and also give your account more bandwidth for posting/voting/following/etc.

Terms and Conditions for Steem Power Delegations

While BlockTrades does not directly oversee usage of the delegated Steem, we will investigate complaints of abuse by the community. BlockTrades reserves the right to terminate a user’s delegated Steem Power without refund if the user uses the delegation in a manner it considers harmful to the Steem community. The most common forms of abuse in this context would be: frequent upvoting of nearly contentless posts and/or plagiarism posts, targeted downvoting attacks on non-abusive community members, or phishing attacks aimed at defrauding other Steem users. We have in the past terminated several delegations WITHOUT refund for abuse of this type.

On the other hand, BlockTrades does not consider it abuse to upvote your own posts as long as they consist of original material that can be argued to have some meaningful content (even if it’s just an original joke).

Prices are very very high.. I will not apply for new delegations.. I plan not to renew the older ones..

so whats the point to apply for delegations? how do you renew your delegations ? where cain i see that info on my profile ??

Sometimes when the prices are low, it can be profitable, and before xmas last year when SBD price was more than $10 it was super profitable.. as for renew if you buy delegations from @blocktrades then you will get reminders and you can see that on your steemit wallet

Agree

Loading...

Prices are extremely high and this discourages renewals as they would not profit you but others...purely for charity... Expecting a return on investment would be wrong

If I had renewed then today I would be begging on the streets :p

Sorry, the prices are very high
I was hoping that prices would be low or be like the previous price
It is very difficult
On what basis are these prices imposed
?????
Please cooperate with us

Actually, it seems more likely the prices were too low based on results so far... Half our inventory is gone already after one hour.

Ok @blocktrades, this scarcity thing just got me 😀I bought myself some SP and will now calculate, how often I need to self-upvote in the future to make it profitable 😂

@atmosblack you need to vote yourself 10x a day for 90 daya just to eveb get a return in investment. It is purely for charity. Dont expect to make money.

can you explain further please ??

#amazing news guys!!!

Nice GIF 😀👍🏼

I love all GIFs posted in steem. Where from you get so much cool gifs? wow! My collection increasing everyday.

Love the GIF! :-)

Great profile buddy... Hope it is a true reflection of your deeds on here.

Does steem power only last 90 days?

yess

Did I also notice a price difference on Steem Delegations, compared to January, or is that a mistake from my end?

Nope, delegation cost is much higher now, both because Steem is higher versus many coins and also just sheer demand. Last time we offered delegations, they literally sold out in the first hour.

Makes sense. Thank you for your quick reply

It is a good news for us!Thanks for your updating!

Could have been so much better if you used a screenshot using SBD instead of BTC, since you posted it here.

This comment has received a 30.80 % upvote from @steemdiffuser thanks to: @stimialiti. Steem on my friend!

Get Upvotes, Join Our Trail, or Delegate Some SP

I think nowadays to delegation steem power is very expensive, in December 2017 ago .. to delegation steem power with 1 SBD we get 65 SP. but currently if we delegation a steam power with 1 SBD only get 9.7 SP. very expensive.

Agree. Should be cheaper...

Yeah, you are right. 1 Steem for 10SP is a horrible investment.

right 👍

Thank you very much! I just purchased 100 SBD worth of delegation and I'm thrilled it's more than 10x the amount I would have gotten if I had just used the SBD to power up. Thank you for providing this service :)

This is none sense, how could we got benefit from this!!!

You guys rock! Love your services.

There is one error in your apps
Showing deposit limit 0 sbdScreenshot_2018-02-11-17-06-55-1.png

That's not an error, it means that we have sold out of immediately available delegations. We're now taking pre-orders for some SP that will be available for delegation over the next week.

Thank you
Can i upvote self post after taking deligation

it gives very little sp. I got it from the meaning. I regret.

hello dear @blocktraades, I want to buy steem delegation with BCH, how to ?

yes i'm got some sp. thanks blocktrades

This deal is loss making this time. Pls check my post for details. It is better to outrightly buy the steems instead of getting delegations at this cost

https://steemit.com/prameshtyagi/@prameshtyagi/current-blocktrades-delegation-offer-is-not-good

I agree with you.
It's too expensive.
Thks for yr great information.
follow & voting
^&^

Great news. There would be nice if they implement that user can delegate and undelegate SP through Blocktrades.

Very good info! I wanna analyse one of these possibilities .

Hello Sir
I am not seen deposit limit before delegation purchase so after transferring balance I seen deposit limit is 0 so please forgive my mistake and refund my balance if possible.
Thank you so much blocktrades team for giving us their amazing service without any delay...
I am also happy because I was seen blocktrades team is opposing plagrism on steemit.

you are receiving delegation later after 1 or 2 week don't worry @blocktrades is a trustworthy.

I know but now I need some money and I am going to sell my all SBD and steem for Bitcoin. So I want refund for that...

if you need money then send email @blocktrades

Wowzers that is a lot of SP available.
Nice job @blocktrades, I'm jealous.

Has anyone tried SP delegation and can tell me more about the ROI?
e.g. How high must your self-vote % be, to make this a profitable investment over 90 days?

With the SP delegations they are giving, you need to upvote yourself 10x each day for 90 days just to get back your initial investment. Not worth getting SP delegation this time in my opinion. No wonder it is not as hot as before. 4 hours in and it is not yet sold out. Whales and dolphins dont like the ratio being given.

Thanks for the info! How did you calculate the 10 self-votes/day? When I take my SP + deleg. SP and I upvote myself 3+ times per day (at the current price of $4/STEEM) I will have my investment back easily - of course when Steem prices will drop under $4 I would need more upvotes. So from my calculation everything above 3 self-upvotes a day and higher STEEM prices will leave me in the plus - but maybe I just calculated it wrong...

Just go to steemworld.org and then type your username on address bar starting with @. And then click on simulate SP button and write the SP you get with delegation and it will show you how much your vote will be worth at 100%(calculated on current prices of steem, it can vary if steem prices go up and down). Multiply that by 10 (if upvoting 10 per day) then divide that by 2 because half payouts are paid in SBD's and half in SP. And see if you can have profit by doing a little bit of maths. Hope this helps. This is how I understand it.... :))

Thank you! I did it very similarly, but to make it more real, I would also need to subtract the SP I originally had and take the current STEEM price into calculation. What I came up with is, that from 3+ upvotes I´ll have a positive ROI - but again, since the prices are fluctuating very much, I can only hope that the STEEM price over the next 3 months will be above the current $4.

Yep just calculate on the basis of delegated SP exclude your own SP. But at the moment, it takes two and half a month to cash your investment relying on self upvotes(10 votes per day at current prices of steem). 3 votes per day is pretty less, the profit ratio will be very little and may be you just secure what you invested for getting the delegated SP on the course of 90 days of your delegation(at current prices of steem). Let me do some math for you.
At the moment, for 25 SBD you get 231 delegated SP(vote weight at 100% 0.06).
0.06 x 10 (10 i.e votes per day) = 0.6
0.6/2 (half sbd, half sp) = 0.3 sbd one day payment for 10 self upvotes.
0.3 x 90 ( 90 days delegation)=27 (2 sbd profit) calculated on current prices of steem and SBD.

At the moment, if you only think about SBD, the profit is less. But if you bring the SP you get by self upvoting in account, it is still profitable to get delegation at the current prices offered.

Wohooo! Thanks for doing some math for me! I guess, I will self-upvote more than 3 times then, but I also think, that the Steem and SBD prices will go up over the next 3 months. Thanks!

I hope too they go up soon. You're welcome.... :))

Where can I read more about self voting? Also how the community feel about people self voting themselves?

As for the community; most accept that people upvote their own posts as long as it is real content. The community is a bit more divided about upvotes on own comments.

Thanks

very good news ... I was looking forward to it coming back ..I will use it before it's too late
Thank you @blocktrades

I don't know, how to get it. I am using steemit since last six months and I am having only 8 steem power. Nothing to invest and not much progress within.
I think I need some more years to be able to buy steem on deligation.
You people are doing good work to elevate those who can buy steem on deligation.
Hope one day I can buy at least some chunk of steem on deligation. Not possible this time.

I just got some :D Finally my up vote is worth 3 cents instead of one

giphy (4).gif

That's not much of a difference. How many self upvotes do you have to make to get your investment returned ;-)

I think I should wait for 30 days delegations.
@blocktrades how much wait I have to do.

good info

This is very informative @blocktrades ....very helpful to the community..tnx alot

Interesting.

Well thank u @blocktrades it seems to be nice thind to do i will work on trying it when i am able too 👍🏼

I am looking at your site and logged in, but I do not see the delegation option. I only can buy SBD, STEEM and SP from there.

You may need to hit F5 to refresh the available buy options.

This seems like a great service! Hopefully some day soon I will be able to afford it! I have used Blocktrades several times and it was painless and fast. I will make an account so I can see what this is all about.

I just made an account, I like that the delegations are 90 days. I hope to do this soon! Thanks for offering it!

This ia a really innovative program. I've always used the blocktrades.us website for the few exchange I've done and it has really been smooth and straightfoward especially after the addition of the automatic payment method which eradicate the problem associated with memo and all. Thanks @blocktrades

excuse me sir "post that you share it is remarkable and could be a lesson for us newbies you are a inspiration for me

Wow great news. Am heading to blocktrades in my belows 🏃🏃

deleted

This is good news to here that the 90 days delegation is back, I believe most SP seekers will have a place to lease. @blocktrades has always been a reliable source to exchange and do some other cryptocurrency transactions, so it great to delegate from them

Was that you who helped out @steemsilverround with a nice donation? It came from you but idk if it was from a user or you!

If it was you, thank you!!

please follow back yes

i like the help your services have given me - i have converted to BTC and ETH from my power downs, and after checking your leasing prices i think they are very reasonable too. Upvoted for you -David

Love the concept. Been analyzing crypto for several weeks as a stock market investor Im bring my analysis from stock to crypto companies. Love this concept especially you can see people putting their money where there mouth is. Thank you.Slow your aging process check my blog TY.

Thanks blocktrades..

As a newbie, should I buy just 50 SBD worth of Delegation?
Actually! I just did it!!
You have to speculate to accumulate!!

Will this have a positive impact on my reputation and overall earnings on the chain?
Thanks
Darren

Where can i see the fees you charge for exchanging sbd to steem or any other currencies?

Thanks for share @blocktrades
Like it

Waw amazing very good. Thanks for sharing

The long awaited has now returned. Welcome back, @blocktrades :)

Nice job
Thank you @blocktrades

noice!

This would be nice. I really could use it.

Thanks for the information about delegation, I will try to raise funds and if enough I will buy the deligation. Thank so much @blocktrades.

delegation is a new hope for old players

The long-awaited time came, delegation is a long-term expectation and is a fortune for who is lucky and able to buy.
Thank you for the deligation and thank you for the opportunity from you @blocktrades.

@blocktrades
Wow... I would like to buy delegated SP. I don't know how it's done. Can somebody put me through on how to go about it?

You can enter their website https://blocktrades.us and select "Send" to be "Steem" or "SBD" and "Receive" as Steem Power Delegation. Then just follow the instructions below.

Good post

Please block the money received from @marokolt it's stolen money. Please refund the victims.

So its basically credit. ....So im taking loans on the blockchain now? smh

No, it's not credit, you can't "spend" it. It's more like leasing an apartment instead of buying it. You get the utility at a cheaper cost, but you don't have it long term.

Dear @blocktrades, i really appreciate this service of yours. I was excited about it when you announce few weeks ago. Upon seeing the price, it was surprisingly high. No wonder it's still available after many hours.

Now, can i make a proposal?

For Steemians like me who is supporting a community when it comes to curation and upvoting ~ @blocktrades should provide a special price that's worthy for the buyer's time & effort on helping build a community.

In this way, the abuse will be mitigated and it will also help the well-rounded steemians to meet their goal to grow their account. Thanks for listening. All the best!

Actually, we've already sold out.

I see, congrats! Looks like you made a good decision on that :-)

I have a question for extension of current delegation.

What would be the price? Is it same as when it was first purchased? (Lower price)

Or the price will be based from this new pricing? (Higher price)

Thanks @blocktrades

New purchases and extensions all use the same base pricing. The pricing advantage of extending versus buying a new one comes because of the 7 day cool down period when a delegation ends.

Noted on that.

To clarify, let say i bought sp delegation last december 2017 at around 1 sbd = 38 sp. If i will extend the dellegation on march 2018, will it be same price?

I hope i got it right.

No, the price has changed.

Noted on that. Thanks for the heads up.

Have a nice day @blocktrades!

Delegation - is it like borrowing?

It's like a temporary lease of SP. You can buy a delegation to temporarily increase the strength of your votes and also give your account more bandwidth for posting/voting/following/etc.

Ok, thanks for the explanation.

Please help me.

Good information

I have never bought steem delegation. Maybe I should try this one day. But I also don't understand how it works (after you give it back that is)... maybe I should read about that as soon as I can.
