Steem power up?????

in power •  7 years ago 

Im a lost irish man . Could someone please explain to me why i just powered up my steam in simple english. Man im so confused.

The gist i got was that i can now upvote and earn more steam dollars then in three months time if i wish convert them back to steam and then sell or convert to a crypto. Not sure really. And what are steam dollars?

Im sure im not the only one out there who is confused. Any help would be awesome
