The cryptocurrency markets are showing some promise that bear market might be turning around. Bitcoin has moved up some over the last week or so and STEEM has moved up some but not a lot.
Many are getting discouraged at not seeing the levels we saw earlier this year. I tend to have faith that like bitcoin which has seen its share of dramatic rise and falls, we’ll see similar with this platform.
You may want to explore what motivates you to create content and post on the platform. If you’re just chasing dollars, well this platform might be a slow way to do so. If you’re enjoying creating content, trying new things and developing as a content creator, then you’ll find the challenge of learning how to grow on the platform worth the time and effort. But it does take effort.

How BuddyUP fuels your Steemit journey
The @buddyup discord server has been around for a while and has been evolving to be a place where Steemians of all levels can engage each other and grow together. This post lays out the concepts for the discord and how you can participate.
Sketches vs Colors Artwork.
@abrahmatan shares some excellent sketches and a bit of a unique way of presenting the process in the form of animated gifs. They move a bit quick to fully appreciate the steps in the process yet the speed almost brings the sketches to life.
New beginnings everywhere... Learning about MICROHOLDINGS #adsactly #ecotrain
@beautifulbullies discusses her desire to be more self-sustaining. While she’d love to own some property and have lots of room to grow food on, she doesn’t. So, she takes a look at utilizing what space she does have to maximum benefit.
ULOG # 21: Be Careful and Secure Your Steemit Account
If you’ve been on the platform any more than about 10 minutes you’ll know some folks are getting their accounts hacked. @rezoanulvibes lays out just how easy it is to fool you if you are not paying attention. So, pay attention and give his post a good read.
C0ff33 Vlog 27th July 2018 - Getting overheated with me 🔥 @c0ff33a ☕️
@c0ff33a is a reading and commenting madman on the platform. He’s also a hardworking witness, so if you have a witness vote available, keep him in mind please. This post of what he’s been up to will keep you busy for hours just checking out the links to other posts he’s provided. Have a read and enjoy, just as soon as you check out the links in the Ramble.
ULOG: 30 Enjoying the harvest + Shopping for a new phone
I got a chuckle out of this post from @wizardave. He starts us off with some lovely shots of flowers, progresses to the longest description of the making of a BLT and the variation BLOT (read the post) and then moves on to his purchase on Amazon. Just like life, variety in any given day.
Art 108: My Drawing of Angela Basett of Mission: Impossible Fallout
@christianyocte takes us through his process in drawing Angela Bassett. The process is detailed and at the bottom of the post I discovered that the platform has a front end geared toward artists. Great to see.
Ulog 21: How to Draw a Mandala
I’ve been noticing the subject of mandalas popping up lately. Not really sure why but they are intriguing. I love this post by @eveningart laying out the process of creating mandalas.
My Fractal Mandalas Adult Colouring Book - First Reveal!
On the topic of manadalas, this post was shared with us at Pimp Your Post Thursday this past week. @mandelsage revealed that he has a project underway to create a mandala colouring book. While he doesn’t reveal the fine details of mandala creation, he shows some great pics of his work.
Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 07/29/18> Official announcement forth coming: US Government to relocate Nation Capitol to Las Vegas, NV
@sultnpapper puts forth his arguments for why the American government needs to relocate the seat of government to Las Vegas. In the fiction can become truth category, his arguments strike many universal chords.
We were so young back then
@derangedvisions writes a beautifully done post about his marriage and a tribute to his wife. Great photos to go with it.
My favorite black&white pictures!
In a world of technicolour sometimes it takes seeing things in black and white to fully appreciate the depth and patterns in nature. @saffisara shares some of her favourite black and white photos.
About the Steemit Ramble
The Steemit Ramble is a manual curation project written by @shadowspub since August 2016. She scours the blockchain to locate and share the best posts so you don't have to. Every day many quality posts disappear on the blockchain leaving their authors frustrated they aren't seen and readers just as frustrated trying to find them. This curation project brings readers and authors together.
How You Can Participate?
As hard as she works, @shadowspub doesn't find all the best. You, as a reader, will find posts that have been missed and really should be seen. You can take a part in bringing these posts to light and earn a share of the post they are published in.
The Steemit Ramble has it's own discord called, Steemit Ramble. Here you can nominate posts you've found and think belong in the Ramble.
How to Nominate a Post
- Read How I Manually Curate to give you an idea of what I'm looking for in a post. This covers the formatting, the quality of the writing is just as important.
- When you find a post visit the Ramble discord and submit it to the #nominate-someones-post channel by writing a short nomination
It's that easy. I review each submission. Those I select will receive credit for the nomination, their nomination will be part of the entry in the Ramble and they will receive a portion of the SBD earned when the post pays out.
Supporting the Steemit Ramble Curation Project
In addition to reading and upvoting the Steemit Ramble, you can support the project and the authors featured in it by:
Delegating even as much as 25 SP to @steemitramble -- this will increase the voting power of the account when it votes on those curated. Delegating is like loaning me some of your Steem Power so I can vote on others posts with a larger vote.
Join the curation trail on SteemAuto and then join the curation trail. The trail is called Steemit Ramble
Pimp Your Post Thursday
Don’t forget, Pimp Your Post Thursday takes place every Thursday at 11am and 7:00pm EDT on the Steemit Ramble Discord. Come and join the fun promoting your posts and getting to know others.

You are too kind as always, although Mad Man is about right 😜 I'm working on developing the idea for that vlog curation post - where the post titles that are links to the post are combined to create some sort of story - I got the idea half way through that one but it was too far in to change.
I think I saw a few posts I have not seen yet, so I will have to check them out now!
