Vlog 162: Bitcoin is flirting with $20.000 + STEEM Return on investment for 2017 is 1200% in USD.

in dtube •  7 years ago  (edited)


At the beginning of the year, Steem was around $0.15.

If you had asked me back then if I would be happy with $2 STEEM by the end of the year.

I would have said: "where do I sign".

That's a Return on investment of 1200%.

It's true that compared to Bitcoin or another crypto the ROI has been less.

But when I hear other people talk about their investments making 5% a year, I can't find any reason to complain.

And besides that. With STEEM it's possible to generate more STEEM just by having it (blogging, curating, interest, delegation) and not every crypto can do that.

You can add that to the ROI too.

Taking profit


Even though every time I have taken profit in crypto it has been too early. I'm still doing it at certain points.

It's easy to get caught up in crypto euphoria but there is always a potential that the markets are overheated (but they can also easily go way higher.)

My tactic of selling and buying gradually has always worked well for me. It definitely does not maximize profits but it does reduce risks.

I joined steemit back in June , that is when Steem was going up anddoenaround $2 and then I witnessed its fall for months and it went to $1 and even under. After months of battle it’s good to see a high of $2.6 today

Indeed! I was lucky to buy a ton when it was about ten cents. Best roi of all of my crypto outside of ripple.

I really need to delegate my sp and find more ways to maximize my investment. Thanks @exyle

IDK about Steem, hopefully will go up. I'd rather have steem go up, than steem dollars. Steem dollar is rewarding celebrity people but not those who invested in the platform.

Somehow you stick to your beliefs and now steem is rewarding all steemians that stick around
Keep

Return on investment of 1200% ??? Steemit is an awesome platform

The 1200% was on STEEM, not Bitcoin. Bitcoin was actually higher for 2017 so far.

wow awesome ............................

God bless both STEEM and BTC, long live crypto.

And congratulation for your 1200% return and I hope you can even make it more in coming days.

My tactic of selling and buying gradually has always worked well for me. It definitely does not maximize profits but it does reduce risks.

You mean buying steem at 4$? :))

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I bought at $4, I also bought at $0.08. With the same money one just buys a lot more at $0.08.

Phew, it was a long way to get back to four bucks.

Let me predict the future:

Vlog 182: Bitcoin is flirting with $35,000

20 days! Where do I sign!

Maybe I should have said blog 202 ? Either way, I see it happening. :)

hahaha

Glad to have been part of Steemit and continually invest. Steemit is revolutionizing content creation and I truly believe that in the future it will contend with the giants we now have such as Facebook instagram etc.

Wow great news, bitcoin will be landing on moon. Thanks for your great hope and inspiration to hold bitcoin and also other crpto. You are also right to lowering down the risk theory. Thanks friend you are genius. Have a good day friend.

Thank you. Have a good day too!

Steem is still very under priced now, it has potential to reach $10 soon, glad to see these amazing returns.

Even though bitcoin has been the better investment in 2017, in 2018 steem will certainly have it's moment in the spotlight and we will be popping champagne when the price hits the moon.
I think you missed my meme you wanted to see yesterday so I'll link it here again:
https://dmania.lol/post/cmmemes/everybody-must-do-their-part-for-the-blockchain-zg1hbmlh-4juc6
This is from my meme posting account

I hope so!

@exyle even with the Return on STEEM in 2017 I think that 2018 will even be a better year. If anyone is reading this and is having some doubts about STEEMIT just hang in there and be consistent. It will pay off for you we are only going to grow Bigger.

Hoping for a bigger growth next year! :)

Good Morning Mark, reducing risk is the best we could do. But sure STEEM we HODL.
No matter if they go up or down, at the long run, it will be the best platform, and that we are part of.

I will keep my STEEMPOWER forsure. I have never powered down.

yeah this is excellent suitation for us in steem.

yes, I think you have seen a unbeleivable year.. I started in june 2017.. after that it was terrible for all allts which I bought... did not own BTC.. But I am happy to see now it's getting back again... 2017 was the learning, 2018 the year to shine...

2017 definitely was the learning point and 2018 is the year to make things happen! :)

I hope so man!

I hope you like my #steemcandle initiative.. every day a burn a virtual Steem candle for important things to think about in our world.. This is day #17 already https://steemit.com/steemcandle/@rival/steemcandle-day-17-31-days-of-burning-a-candle-taking-care-of-mother-nature

Excellent video my friend, well that's true steem growth with in a year is exceptional and i think a 2$ growth in first year is not bad at all and it's surely a great return on investment and another cool thing is that peoples can earn steem with the curation rewards and that's to me is a more bonus on their investment and with the upcoming developments we surely see more growth in the steem price soon, i think we still have a very good chance to buy more steem and then hold it because this coin has way more potential and buying and holding this coin now will produce great results for us in a near future, thanks for sharing your nice thoughts with us, Stay blessed

Oh yes, my friend, this year ends for us very well and we are all on a big rise from the STEEM price, an excellent situation and I'm happy about it! Now of course at this price and I agree with you, you need to do things carefully and carefully, with a cold head and everything will be all right! Thank you @exyle and keep us informed of what's happening!

$2.27 right now...it's been trending UP all day.er...I meant $2.29

$2.26 now. It's fine with me!

that's what it is right now.
last night it went up to $2.30
it seems to be going up as we speak.

Jesus Christ! Steem was once $.15? That gives me so much hope!

In the downtrend last year. It went all the way to $0.07 I think.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

i see many blockchains but steem is totally different from all others and it give many of benefits of thier users the mostly users earen steem and hold and get good profit and sure i believe on it the next year steem will rise a big value bcz many many newly people joining steemit and also buy ang get steem from steemit and steemit returen all of us more profit wiht vote rewards and also to rise up steem and sbd @exyle ....thanx to share new video with us like ur everyday

You know Cryptos are doing good when 1200% ROI is considered pretty good. LMFAO

LOL. I guess that true :)

@exyle,
Seriously I missed STEEM at 0.15 USD and I found it around 0.8 USD! Anyway investment on SP made a great profit by SBD price! Hope in 2018 we can see huge rise up of STEEM and SBD based on demand it will take by SMT! Nice update dude! You built my faith on STEEM and now I am enjoying by it very well! Thank you!

Cheers~

0.8USD was still a good price.

@exyle,
Yeah now it's almost 3X :D

Cheers~

I really like your positive attitude in your vlog man! Now the sun is also beginning to shine over here so I think this will be a good day. Glad to be part of this wonderful community!

Thanks man! It was a good day.

Yeah, Its went so high !! You always come with realistic analysis !! Always follow you my friend .

Beautifully said. I got in at 1.15-ish about 18 days ago and have already turned quite a profit with the only investment being time. Only good times ahead and the value will only go up. The ROI in the cryptoworld is unheard of by traditional standards.

Congrats!

Investing in crypto starting with STEEM is easier because its cheap and easy to get unlike Bitcoin. If, for example, you bought STEEM last month at $1, you've already doubled your money today. Of course, Bitcoin also doubled since last month but what are the odds of that happening soon with the price at $20k

You indeed are kind of great while taking profit :)
I have been following you for a while and have seen that you do avoid taking risks while it comes to profit :)
That is indeed great and i do really hope i get that instinct in near future !
Steem on and good news for Steem that is for sure!

Thank you and I good luck with investing!

Steem done really well at the end of the year.
Being around the 2dollar marks is good and it will only go up from here.

@exyle This a great post man, congrats on your success! I'm still relatively new to steemit and I'm finding how all of this functions to be completely fascinating. You learn something new everyday! :)

You made the right decision at the right time, have been following your posts since I joined Steemit and you remained calm when the steem price was around 0.8 and you bought them then too. Enjoy your profits!

Thank you!

all the crazy numbers and percentages are not so crazy when you think it's the dollar that's volatile not the bitcoin. maybe not right now but it will be the perspective of the future.

i'm realising massively that i've 'gone' too early on a lot of things. just last night alone changing a batch of dash to btc, lol. learned my lesson there! :) just about to see $20k bitcoin shortly too ;)

Wow..if you are doing well and posting at steemit...you can earn free steem basically without any capital. So your ROI is more than 10000% ...in fact it is infinity. Which cryptocurrency apart from Steem gives you this ROI. Continue posting at Steemit...

That is true. I did buy STEEM though in the downtrend last year and up until very recently.

It is amazing year for crypto. Those who are not happy whit 1200% ROI are in my opinion a bit too greedy. And yes, taking profits is never a mistake.

if 1200% is not enough I don't know what is.

IKR! Steem has finally started to grow after staying quiet for months. Happy to be a part of it. Hopeful about 2018 too :)

the real pump in STEEM is still due and the current valuation of 2.25 USD per STEEM is becoz of insane bull move by BTC...you look at steem it the same 11000 satoshi what it was 1 month back....so in my view the real pump is coming in 2018

you @exyle are lucky to get it at 0.15 during it start....and i wish steem will become 10 usd per steem in 2018...lets see...only time will tell..

I was wondering if you would do a vlog this morning when I saw BTC at $19,559.00 last night. It will be an interesting ride. Greetings.

I am so happy that my son introduced me to this platform. I only wish he had done it sooner! lol I am very happy with the gains I have made.

It's a very special place. Next year with SMT's I think you will be happy with your gains. (steempower).

what i just say bitcoin is going mind boggling right now and the market cap just keeps on increasing its the best time of the crypto

Steem on fire now, and I think it is still undervalued!

wow Steem Returns 1200% USD in 2017

Yes - The amount of growth is crazy. The technology is very useful so not surprised.

Time for steem, don't doubt about this @exyle

We are given a chance and we must not miss it, there are good times and I like it....

It's good hearing from you, how u have been making success in crypto. I'll say the growth of steem is release improving in price and has a great feature for all steemians.

This datum are crazies but, is amazing and friendly bitcoin the coin more strong of the world

i am looking for a information like that.and you have give me a proper information...thank you

Steem will be $10 very soon.

Best time for invest in steem

I just wish I’d heard about the place a year ago!

salut dengan postingan anda..
setiap ngepos langsung melejit ke peringkat pertama.

You are right to reduce risk with slow gains but steemit is in its early age and gread for growth now is reasonable.

That will be nothing to the 2018 profit! :)

Your approach seems very sensible. I at new at this so I will stay with ROI for the foreseeable future anyway.

solution of problems like sun shine,,,great one..

Cyptro market is also increasing.bitcoin is so increasing

I like this kind of happy posts. It's great to share good news and happines together.

Bulls make money, bears make money, and pigs get slaughtered.

Steem is future which will overtake other social apps and web sites. Just save your steem and watch what it is going to become.

Thanks for giving the chance to enjoy this beautiful news!!

This is good. Right now the ear of bitcoin & sbd! Thanks for sharing.

I liked the publication and very important parameters Ndkok more for follow-up more and please follow me as well

Awesome vlog as always

İt’s true

I wish I had gotten in at $0.15.

Those who invested 20 days back in steem and BTC would have doubled their money. Its crypto world and bull move is the fundamental aspect of blockchain and cryptocurrency.

Steem on and stay blissful @exyle

mind blowing facts to see and great stats truly wonderful
lets hope 2018 going to be even best :)

Return on investment of 1200%... With STEEM it's possible to generate more STEEM just by having it (blogging, curating, interest, delegation) and not every crypto can do that.
At this rate, I wonder where steem would be next year. The growth is just marvellous.

Thats nice, i had a similar good year. But i want that 2018 becomes even better, so i switched to BitcoinCash and Vertcoin

https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@the.privatier/12-important-things-you-need-to-know-when-deciding-about-investing-in-bitcoin-cash-or-bitcoin

@exyle, that's amazing update. Now we can get great return investment from BTC and STEEM. BTC mooning and steem and steem dollars the same way. We all glad in finishing end year. Next year will be more rise.

Aim for the sky, set your goals high.
nice post @exyle

waw those are great numbers! you did very well!

wow great news..hard to believe..but things are happening now :) thanks sir

1200% R.O.I is sick even banks would feel the heat after hearing that let them feel who cares hahah but this year has been amazing from investors point of view now only in bitcoin but from the whole cryptocurrency

Finally steem is now over $2. Hope it goes even higher

Bitcoin to 25000 by year end what you think

i enjoy how you used the word flirting lol

I'm glad Steem and SBD has been going up in the past month. At first, based on where I had bought in, I felt that I had missed out on gains from just directly buying BTC than Steem. However, now, I feel that my investment in Steem will work out well.

I use a very similar tactic to ensure profits are being made, although the margins could have been a little higher, I take what I am satisfied with and usually there is nothing to complain about... because well i made money on the deal.... cool vid appreciate your post

very nice post dear

Bitcoin is going crazy. I hope steem to be like that.

Your Vlogs inspire me to act!
Thanks for putting them out and being there for us!
Have the road ahead of you unfold with amusement and love!

taking out a little profit is always a good thing to do whereas seeing ti grows along make us happy steem is just amazing as a crypto :)
