Steemit Investor Guide – A Study/View on Crypto and Steem

ldacey-laforge (54) · 7 years ago (edited)

Wish I had written this but, to be honest my level of knowledge, would be a massive stumbling block to realising this wish :)

Fantastic informative post - resteemed. :( oh seems this is not possible due to it being an old post? Sorry.

Glad to virtually meet you, after you popped by mine, and look forward to reading more from you in the coming months.

I intend leaving all my earnings in the platform and have faith that Steemit and Steem will be my pension.

That said I am unsure of the best way to convert my Steem Dollars > Steem > SP. I have read several articles but remain unclear - any hints anyone please?

I wish you success and happiness for 2018 and beyond.

Oh no, i should really change my last post as everybody must have a super boring impression of me :-) Don't know if it is for the F word in your last post or for the 'lightworker' in your description but will follow you, maybe just for trying to read this most boring longest post ever :-)
Light, much love, good party times and a super duper 2018

Well, my hands were tied with the power down feature that takes at least seven days to encash 1/13 th. Then I stumbled upon the delegation feature. This is great!

I also realized I could achieve quickly here in three to six months, with less cost and effort. A 'normal' blog would take two years with hard work and additional expenses.

bubke (60) · 7 years ago

Ha, now I see it is delegated power, cool. But you have to blog a bit more eh, 8 days ago your last one! How you are going to get your delegation cost back then? Come on, work your ass off :-)

True! But have you noticed the number of posts and followers going up?

I have seen well-written blogs get a few cents and below average pieces, with lots of spelling and grammar errors consistently getting big votes. Not worried about the initial loss of revenue.

I agree that blogging AT LEAST once a week now makes perfect sense. Later maybe every day.

Thank you very much!

Best to focus on yourself and possibly learn from others. But I stumbled upon these when I saw voting patterns or flagged messages: there will be many accounts rewarding or punishing when only one user is happy/upset.

As this expands I believe there will continue to be more distribution - especially if there is a way to penalize anti-social behavior.

Well, I'm not sure what's in store for the future.
For now best to focus on personal goals and learn from others. ;)

Oh, I like this one. First, because it reveals more of your quite interesting personality, second - for the information on the future of the Platform as well as Bitcoin. I was always wondering what are the best tactics to go about both so now I know. Thank you once more%)

What a wonderful post! I admit I'm more into the blockchain technology than cryptocurrency, but this convinced me to hold on to Steem specifically.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Thanks @webgrrrl, why don't you develop for Steem, want some ideas? :-)

webgrrrl (51) · 7 years ago

Ooh absolutely, hit me up with those ideas! I'm looking into contracts right now, and still trying to wrap the idea around how to innovate logistics. Blockchains are so exciting!

bubke (60) · 7 years ago

I know, i know, blockchains are such a thrilling experience. I am a programmer myself actually but i have 2 full-time jobs already, trying to do some extra courses after my hours but i am also a father of 2 children etc etc Oh Lord, give me more time please. There are 2 things i would love to do for Steem. One is something similar as localbitcoins.com but then for Steem. We all lose a lot of money to buy/sell Steem as we have to pass bitcoin, have to pay exchange fees, etc... It could be really simple, make a Steem account, @localsteem. We need a website where people can announce they want to sell. If somebody agrees, then seller has to transfer his Steem to @localsteem and alert @localsteem when buyer has transfered money and then money needs to be transferred to @localsteem. Another thing i would love to see is a tiny facebook app where you just announce your Steemit name and then all facebook friends could be found on Steemit (if more Steemians install it off course). In which country are you located? If you want to do some more business-oriented stuff, also possible, i am head of development of an accounting package and would love to explore how to use blockchain. Soooooo many ideas :-)

stonemaiden (48) · 7 years ago

Haha! That's hilarious. If that was so boring, I will be watching for more for sure. I guess the free thinker in me is also trying to wrap my head around the posture and potential of various crypto options without sucking my life away or going cross-eyed. Therefore I appreciate views like this.
Actually, I also liked what was said in this about trust. Very good perspective.

Guess you had some spare time, long post :-). To be honest, i plan to sell off some Steem around February as we have a few important things coming up now and temporary rise will happen. 1/2 million users, HF20 and SMT. It will go all into bitshares, i believe in a massive potential there, follow @haejin if you want some golden tips, he is the best we have on Steemit.

Hey man I really wanted to say thank you for recommending @hejin. THAT guy sounds like knows much about crypto and could potentially be a better way to invest my money on his calls than into steemit from the looks of it.

Share nice to find the likes of you around here @bubke!

I am working on project with the aim of giving us a currency that is stable relative to the most basic elements of real economy plus has the side effect of decentralizing purchasing power in a way that is critical for real change to have effect. I suspect it might resonate with you. I have dropped hints of it in posts and comments so far, but it is out of the box in terms of conventional economic reasoning and requires a truly objective perspective of the realities of our existence to really appreciate.

Thank you for an excellent post. It is people like you that make it worth while being on this platform!
