Account registered by another account requires 10x account creation fee worth of Steem Power before it can power down

in steemit •  8 years ago 

I want to power down the steem power I get his message:

"Account registered by another account requires 10x account creation fee worth of Steem Power before it can power down"

What does it mean? is that mean I need to earn 10x the initial beginning balance when I first opened the account?

Thanks,

Yes.
This is so people can't make free accounts and get the sign-up bonus, then immediately cash it out. Also, powering down takes 2 years. You'll get the balance of the SteemPower split up into 104 equal weekly payments.
