Some of you may already know this, but I just found out about it today while looking for an answer to a question from another Steemian, so I thought I would pass it along. In the past, you could only send Steem to another person's account as Steem Power using the command-line wallet for Steem. But the Steemit web site can also do it now, here's the steps:
- Go to your wallet page (eg. https://steemit/@my_account_name/transfers)
- Click on the amount of Steem in your account and select "Power Up" from the menu that appears.
- In the "Convert to Steem Power" dialog, press the "Advanced" button at the bottom of the dialog and the dialog will change to give you the option to send some of the Steem in your account as Steem Power.
- Enter the account name and amount of Steem Power you want to send and press Ok, and you're done.
Nice simple guide. Not sure if you did it intentionally...

Do you know if is this the Steem Power delegation feature announced in the last hardfork? Thanks in advance!
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
No, this actually gives the steem permanently to the other person as Steem Power, whereas the Steem Power delegation is more like a loan that you can get back later. AFAIK, Steem delegation can only be done from the command-line wallet right now.

Yes, I also want Steemit to add the ability to allow users to create accounts for their friends via the web site as well and pre-fund them with some Steem Power. This is possible through the command-line wallet now, but most people don't have access to that.

VESTS is another name for STEEM POWER. It's the internal units for STEEM POWER used by the blockchain. STEEM POWER is the "equivalent amount of Steem" for a given number of VESTS. You can convert the VESTS back to STEEM by "powering down".

trying to figure out why your most generous gift did not change my account steem power numbers ?
I had 20 something steem power when you gifted me, + 17.540 should have put me in the 30 range maybe 40, I only started my own ledger tonight.
27.608 STEEM
(+106.124 STEEM) < I don't even know what this means LOL
History is incomplete as well, I was given around 9 steem power for opening account, bought .01 BTM in steempower which brought me to 20 something, I wasn't paying close attention err
I'm just getting over a 4 day head exploding cold and not thinking very straight.
Steemdb.com is new to me, I love tools :-)

Hello @blocktrades,
I am trying to understand how your account works. I see some of the friends I follow sending SBD to your account and I am not sure what the reward is for them, and how this portion of the STEEMIT platform works.
Hope this question is not out of bounds.

A couple of people have created tutorials, just search on steemit, but hopefully the site is pretty self-explanatory: you pick what you want to pay with, what you want to receive. Then you can enter how much you want to get or how much you want to spend to find out how much it costs. You also have to specify where you want the output sent to. If you are buying BTC, I recommend you do an amount of $10 or greater USD value, because transaction fees for bitcoin can be large now, and it is a fixed cost we charge as part of the transaction.
