Buy Steem & Power Up Project: 2 in a Row!

Last week I posted that in order to reinvest in the Steemit community I'd be starting to buy Steem and power it up. I also powered up Tuesday, and once again yesterday!

I also will be powering up today and after some more Steem

Particularly with the irregular SBD trading values of late, I'm working to increase the stability of Steemit by being able to better reward creators, and keep more value in the system. I hope you'll join me!

very interesting, thanks!

Ha, you know I haven't read the article yet, I just opened the link to read it later, and I was assuming that's what you were doing actually...!

I invested and powered up last week. Can't wait to do it again!

Yea, I'm not pulling in much steem or SBD right now, but I will be keeping it all in the system for the foreseeable future. I really want to be able to have an impact on the communities that I am engaging with on Steem, and without having that steem power, it's so much harder.

With the prices the way they are, and the fact that the SBD is supposed to be a dollar, it'd almost be dumb not to power up with your rewards (barring emergencies or life getting in the way). I don't think SBD will stay at the current inflated cost.

Yeah, that's a whole other -- very important mind you -- discussion that needs to be had

Powering up right now seems like a good choice. Sold some SBD over the last days for Steem. Too bad nobody knows what's going to happen to the Steem and SBD price in the near future.
I think it's pretty great that good creators like you come over from other sites and bring real value to Steemit. Seems like most new users are here for the quick buck and not for long lasting improvement of the site.
Could you convince some more fellow Youtubers to join?

I already did, @samseder is one who I recruited already, and others are coming!

Hey David, I would start sending steem dollars to bittrex and sell them there and buy steem there, it helps with the daily volume for steem, I heard that the internal market has no effect on volume 😀

Nice job I hope that steemit community have more members like you

Which is the best site to buy steem power?

I found blocktrades.us to be easy to use for converting SBD to SP.

"Power Up!" Great advice. I don't write so well, but I thoroughly enjoy reading a lot of the great stuff published on Steemit. I don't earn a lot in curation and commenting rewards, but my account is growing, and I convert all SBD's into Steem, and Power Up. I'll finally be able to invest some cash into Steem in about a week, and it too, will be Powered Up!

Thanks for your post.

Thankfully I can buy in Ether. them Bitcoin fees tho-

I just powered up today! I got into steem a while ago. I decided to invest it on the steemit platform to help the network grow.

thanks for the info , good post

I recently sold most of my SBDs to buy steem, i felt i was doing the wrong thing, i also felt i was going to lose, so i decided to power all my steem up..but i was still not satisfied with all i did, because i was not sure of what i was doing..not until this moment.I still need more eye opening articles on this issue anyway.i would really appreciate a reply.

I too am investing in Steem power. I'm hoping if I can show others in my community that I can make money from this, that it will bring over a large number of people. Hopefully we'll outnumber, and see less of people like Bernie. If people can stop abuse like what Bernie is doing, then I think Steemit will have a much better chance at getting a lot bigger. For now I'm just gonna try not to get a target on my back.

I agree the more volatile Steem and SBD is, the more apprehensive newcomers will be willing to join. Lets use Steemit for its original intention and not just quick monetary gains

Sounds Amazing and from the comments i have read so far it seems to be a really nice thing you doing but i need someone to explain it a little bit further...Thank you..
