[SteemDown.com] - Which whales are powering down?

in steem •  8 years ago 

Over 90% of my personal net worth is in Steem on this account. Any financial advisor with two neurons capable of firing simultaneously would advise me to sell down and diversify to limit my risk, no matter how bullish I am on Steem. I believe in Steem, I just don't want to bet more than 20% of my net worth on it.

hey well now that you just powered up 2 million steempower i have a feeling youre ready to invest a little more, and I predict your 2 million SPO will go from being worth around $600k to being worth over $10 million dollars in next few years.

I just made a Post celebrating your 2 million steem power up :D
https://steemit.com/steem/@ackza/congratulations-to-our-new-steem-whale-ben-who-just-powered-up-2-million-steempower-today

Youd put me on trending with an upvote to test out that marvelous new steempower :D Placing me on an auto upvote service would lift my spirits so high I would be creating so much steem propaganda id single handedly push the price back to $1 :D Its a win win win bro :D

Wow, the power up will give people reasons to stay and keep to rebuild their confidence on Steem.

@ben you did great

Please make use of your SP to support good content and witnesses. You can make a big difference. We need some whales to counter the vote selling business.

counter the vote selling business

^ Please, this.

In the words of Uncle Ben:

with great power comes great responsibility.

Or with great stake comes great responsibility to preserve the value of that stake. This stands in contrast to users seeking more stake in a manner that devalues that very stake. Yes, I'm talking about vote selling.

Perhaps, @ben will be the one to usher in a new era on this platform bringing back proof-of-brain and banishing the squirrely bots to the nether realm where they belong.

I know 2 Mil SP would hardly be enough to do it on its own but a stake like that could likely generate a lot of momentum from other accounts ( a "Follow the leader" effect).

If Ben starts flagging excessive vote buyers, I'm sure plenty others would be glad to follow suite. Hell, I know I would. I would even try to raise funds for the man using my signature methods.

Hey, a fella can dream! 😛

It would be great to have some whales doing this. Fish of all sizes benefit from a rising tide and the current trajectory could lead to a drought.

Charming. What did I do to upset you? I'm just a humble Steemian who cares about building the platform. It looks like you made the wrong enemies.

It's what happens when you are talking to an alt.

@ben is not liking your website, didn't voted up! whales don't like to get watched.

oh right, it's understandable haha!

Wow you have lots of Steem

I'm no mathematician but this makes you a millionaire ?

Wow! It is @ben here, one of the top on the chart! I am very honored to be showing you relevant data on my creation. 20% is a very large value for you, and I would agree on not taking too much risk. Cheers!

JAh love <3🌲🌹🐣🐤💥💣💜💛💚💙

Get down with the kick down ain't gotta be a baller to spare a dollar @calebotamus good times 💕💙💚💛

@ben You currently have over 100 years worth of 50 Steem for each day. Are you looking to provide your posterity with this stuff? I'm not sure I understand your life planning. People like me would be thrilled to live on 5 Steem a day or less. Do you plan to hire people to make Steem better, because you want it to be better; for the sake of the human race? If that is the case, I respect you that much more. But the reality of holding that Steem is that now you don't have the resources to keep the value of Steem high through buying. But I respect your plan whatever it is.

;-)

LOL 😂
How simple is dog's life and happiness, @higomex?

Wow. That's ... a lot. I'd ask why you have so much in Steem Power but I'm not in your shoes and probably can't see your perspective. Clearly, you are powering down now; how far have you gotten?

That's logical. Probably, transfers like this get people's attention and some people may have somewhat of a hard time seeing a huge chunk of wealth moving and trying not to feel wishful to possess it themselves & then they write about it or otherwise involve themselves when it might be considered polite to not discuss it. Also, there's probably just some attention-seeking, which many of us do from time to time. I'm glad for you that you're doing your thing and it's working out good. It provides you opportunity to do more good in other endeavors as well. Cheers.

I think all they would really need is one neuron, half firing.

Ooooohh, @blueorgy is here too! Huge fan of your #steemapp catchawhale. Though it would seem I've only caught @ben and some minnows and dolphins haha. Imagine if @berniesanders saw this. =O

Hi ben... are you there..lol

I think all the tags scared him off for good.

I don't know if you ever check but I have to try - - - Sorry to be off topic, but as you are a really big whale, (not even a minnow here) A Friend could use some whale help.

Please Help - - - https://steemit.com/steemit/@michelle.gent/i-writer no ONE person should be able to dictate how much a person earns on post. And I apologize for using this method to contact you.

You chose wisely!

I believe in Steem, too, Ben. I'm the author of 7 books and fairly new. Here's an introduction of sorts: https://steemit.com/my2017top5/@yahialababidi/my-2017-top-5-posts-immigratio Cheers, Yahia

hi @ben,,, I see your account has been out of action for a long time.

That was nice to read! Have fun @ben!

@Ben = Peercoin Ben, or a different Ben?

Hey @ben, did not know how to reach out to you, so using this comment. Sincere apologies for spam, I wanted you to have a look at one of my Original Sci-Fi Graphic Novel released exclusively on Steemit http://bit.ly/2bntC9E

With original content I believe we can push Steemit across mainstream and help maintain a very stable and healthy economy for very long term as well. Please share and support the comic if you like it. Took a lot of effort to create it and apologies again for bombarding like this :)

Cheers

Did you lose your account key?
If you're still around...
You said "I don't want to bet more than 20% of my net worth on it", but "Over 90% of my personal net worth is in Steem on this account."
Turns out you should have listened to your gut. Your 1.5 million STEEM lost 99% of its purchasing power. Ouch :(

Agree. Fair

You networth must have exploded! Congrats.
