Steemit 2018 Power Up Project: Streak is now 5!

in steemit •  7 years ago

I'm keeping the streak going at 5 for 5, having just bought more Steem and powering it up AGAIN. During 2017, a few generous Steemians delegated some Steem power to me, and the last bit of that delegation ended earlier this week, so my interest in regaining Steem power is even higher.

Today I used the internal market to buy Steem with SBD, although I have also used Blocktrades in the past for this same transaction.

After converting from SBD to STEEM, I then power up the Steem into Steem Power through my Steemit wallet.

And voila, more Steem Power with which I can support the Steemit community and other creators and curators! Join me in the 2018 Steemit power up project!

Show. I believe very much in the platform and that you continued doing the work for the community. I invest quite power up! The steemit is going very well! congratulations!

thanks for sharing this! Is pretty good information for people that is new here like me :D

Pretend I am new and stupid, how does that translate into more earnings?

If you're not:
TL;DR: the steemit system is basically like a stock that pays dividends. The 'stock' is the value of your social media, both YOUR value, and value you create in the platform. When you post, giving your value AND the value of the people reading your posts, dividends are payed out.

You know how Facebook's valued at 500 billion, and has more money passing through it? On this platform we get that money.

that link is pretty helpful

I'm glad to hear that! Best of luck. :P

Curation rewards and promoting the ecosystem in general?

The more you support the community, the more it will support you!

So it's like the free market, except it works.

Great Post thanks for the information. Do you think that the SBD/STEEM Ratio will go back to 1:1 or is SBD outperforming STEEM in the next time???

Hello @davidpakman can buy Steem power for one SBD? If yes so will it give me help?

Yes, it will give you help. And yes you can do it.

Thanks for info

Powering up your steem will give you much more rewards to your system as a whole and to others you upvote to. So it is quite a good thing to steem power up your wallet.
Respect

I don't get it, greed is good, why should I help people and get helped in return? Sounds like socialism.

Ayn Rand. Atlas Shrugged. Muh Margeret Thatcher!

Principles of give and take. Greed is like one in a tango

Hitler wanted to give and take things, that makes you Hitler.

I think Hitler is more on to take ( greed) than give

Now you see that's not true at all. He was definitely more on the give. The problem was he thought that 'bad' was a substitute for 'good' :

" I do not see why man should not be just as cruel as nature"

Hello brother, I'm new to steemit, thanks for that valuable information, a question, can I convert my first earnings into steem power? at the moment I do not have to make an investment.

I started to follow

yes. just steem, just click in power up. the SBD, you need to convert in Steem to power up.

Awesome @davidpakman. I wish in 2018 could be implemented a change in steemit that it would forbide to upvote our own account or comments. For me it doesn't make much sense, since we should be using our votes to support projects we like and making it mandatory would make more people do it.

I don't wish that... but I do think it's pretty cheesy, especially on Steemit, where the point is to empower others...

Also there's a programme here that I've found pretty useful and does it better:

You get multiple times your upvotes value, AND help other people, AND find news stuff at the same time.
It's great. So Win:Win:Win:Win.

I'm getting tired of winning, as they say in America.

i am with u man i am also increasing steempower

I'm trying to get 500 SP so I can get the slider thingy.

That's my immediate goal - albeit small,it's hard.

Love that you've taken so quickly to Steemit. Youtube shot itself in the foot when they stopped monetizing alternative news. This just brings more power to people like you, on steemit.

Keep trucking. I'm planning on making my first power up later this evening.
