Fair Warning to the Accounts I’m Supporting with Delegations

in delegations •  5 years ago  (edited)

Like many of you, I’ve started a power down on the Steem blockchain. Initially, for just over 8,000 SP. The rest of my SP is/was tied up in delegations. Between the 8k and the delegations, I’ve got just short of 19,000 SP, a mid-sized dolphin. I’ve started cancelling some of delegations and will eventually end all of them. I might drop down to being a small minion (interesting typo, I meant minnow) on Steem but hang around for a bit just for the schadenfreude of a front-row seat watching Justin Sun’s implosion of Steemlandia. Plans may change, but after power downs I’ll probably end up dumping 95+% of my STEEM, converting most of it to Hive Power.

I’ve already withdrawn at least a half dozen delegations but more will follow, including those to charities and other good causes. Some of the delegations have been long-standing, such as over two years for @azizbd’s @schoolforsdg4 project. But for now at least, most of my delegations over on the Hive blockchain will remain in place.

Feel free to include chops in there, I can see it's still active.

Thank you for your support for a long time. I really appreciate it. I understand the community movement with Hive and I hope to see you there as well. See you there and stay safe from the global pandemic.

Tough choices! I closed up all my delegations on Steem just before the fork in order to start fresh on the other side. But it was less of an "I'm sure this is exactly the right thing to do" type of thing than a close-my-eyes and hope it's the right thing thing. (I'm sure there's a better way to write that sentence.) I also started a partial powerdown. But I may be a fence sitter for a while. Actifit posts to both chains, and I don't have a particular sense of urgency (which may be folly).
