Interesting to see how the dynamic will change after HF19

Ya, I'm excited to see how it shifts. I've done 2 after HF19 so far, very happy with both :-)

Somehow this is the first time I've seen your comment, even though I've been actively going through this post and replying the entire time it's been up :-/ Sorry about that.

No problem. Things got crazy after this HF. In a good way. I hope changes will be positive in long run also. A lot of people were given a lot of voting power - it is exiting and a little frigtening.

It took a week, but I finally know what the number in parenthesis represents.

Thanks for that!

Glad I could help! Must have been a suspenseful week :-P

What number? :S

He's referring to the number in parentheses that some people have under their Steem Power. It represents "delegated" SP, basically on loan from someone else.

Thanks @randowhale!

Awesome, I think I'll give it a go!! Are there any Buy One Get One FREE offers?!?!

What is "delegated power"? This is the first time I hear this term and sounds quite interesting - I'd be happy to read a detailed explanation! :)

Basically, an account can loan some or all of its voting power to another account, to do curating for them.

For a detailed breakdown, check out this post by @liberosist

Excellent, thank you for the link!

You're very welcome!

I was made money from a steemgig and payed it forward by doing another steem gig that I just paid out all my SBD's, but this is a great idea! and as soon as I get some SBD's I will hop on this #payitforward bandwagon too! Thanks for all that your doing! And from what I've read this is an @berniesanders project. A big whale with a big heart, and a really good sense for entrepreneurship for making this randowhale and getting some extra bang for his voting power, while still managing to help us minnows out! Awesome concept! Following now. Looking forward to your future posts yo..

Awesome! I've got to check out SteemGigs myself, probably some things in there for me :-)

I could totally see it being bernie. Whoever it is, I love it :-)

Thanks for the follow, and I hope you enjoy them!

I just found out about @Randowhale by you ...great effort thanks. As of your request

If you don't have any friends, leave a comment and maybe I, or someone else reading it, will give you a random-vote!

I would of done it my self but on steem power unfortunately..power down ...7day's .
Thanks appreciate it

Thanks for sharing this! I don't have 2sbd yet, but when I do I will take advantage of this

You're very welcome :-) It's a pretty great service, if you look here you can see the kind of results I've had so far.

This is Power Tipping!

Yesterday I wrote about the service in one of my posts; Today I tried the service two times: 1x 44% and 1x 28% vote power given by @randowhale.

This would be a great addition to the upcoming @tippy service of @klye.

Right?! It's been great being able to throw $10, 20, 30 onto somebody's post, when my own SP only adds about $.01 most of the time.

Yes indeed, super! I just added 9ct to your post, that is what my SP can do :)

Great post @kennyskitchen - I just discovered @randowhale and will certainly be sending my 2SBD for posts in future. Thanks for sharing, it's so nice to see the sense of community from all! Have a lovely day ✨ Followed and resteemed!

Thanks @daisyd ! You won't be disappointed :-)

Following you as well!

awesome man! thank you for spreading the info!

You're very welcome!

I love the @randowhale. =)

This is brilliant idea @randowhale

Great post @kennyskitchen :)

Thanks for the tip regarding the SBD vs Steem. I was hoarding my SBD for something special and was using my Steem instead. Now I know better.

You're very welcome. You can always go check on CoinGecko or something like it to see what the current prices of each are, just to make sure.

Awesome! Thank you! Following 😊

It's my honest pleasure! 😁

Ah... thanks for the information. Someone has blessed with this and before the price increase too. Guess inflation is also a norm in this community.

You're welcome! Prices go up when demand goes up, that's definitely how people seem to operate most of the time. Hopefully they'll keep it at 2 :-)

Yay

ya, i really need to start posting instead of just curating, this service would really help me.

Thanks for all the great info, appreciate it !

Posting is definitely the more fun part of it for me haha, and obviously where you have access to much greater rewards.

You're very welcome!

I think @randowhale is a very interesting and exciting service, I haven't used it yet but I might in the future!

It definitely changes the game up a bit, and I know I'm loving its services!

am kinda new here so most of the terminologies seem strange but i sure do need the services of @randowhale so how do i initiate it

Just send @randowhale 2 Steem Dollars, with the link to the article you want to whale as the "memo"

ok. thanks

Very nice initiative kenny

Interesting that randowhale is following only one person ;)

Thanks :-) I'm so happy to be doing it!

I was so surprised and excited when I saw that!

Thanks for the info. Your are blessed @randowhale @kennyskitchen keep it up

You're very welcome! Happy steeming, and thanks for the support :-)

Highly informative. I have been wanting to do this for a friend but didn't know exactly how. Thank you. Followed you, as well.

Wonderful! I'm glad it helped :-) Thanks so much!

Yes it did. I've been dying to help promote some talented newbies.
PS - I just gave you a shout out in my latest post about all this.

That's awesome, thank you so much!

If you're still feeling generous, I'm launching a contest, and trying to build a follower base big enough to have it successfully attended. I've received a generous donation of 50SBD from @papa-pepper to offer as prizes. So all the funds my account possesses are spoken for, but if you wanted to make a donation to help get this whale's vote to spike a post about the contest, it could help!

Cool, I'll check it out

Thanks!

@kennyskitchen cool post mate I might try it myself and it's worked well for you ??

Ya, it's worked really well. You can follow the progress in my #payitforward posts. It's made a huge boon for most people.

thanks a ton for useful info

You're very welcome!

I will really be happy to get random vote, but since i haven't got any SBD, I guess will have to wait before contacting @randomwhale.

I just tried this! How long does it take to see the randowhale?

Just a few minutes.

Good because there was a minor bug in the Python they use. Anyway I earned back my money by doing this, thank you so much!

I was made aware of this service recently. Apparently you also get a vote from a wealthy person along with randowhale. These were possibly the people behind it i.e. the backers. Maybe you might be able to see if this happens every time or mine was pure coincidence!

The idea of pay-it-forward is wonderful and should be much appreciated by many minnows! Hope to give back in sometime to newbies and good writers, when I manage to build up a little bit of SBD myself!

I haven't noticed a specific one other than @randowhale I don't think, but I'll look. The big thing is just rando having "delegated voting power" from one or more whale accounts.

I hope it will pick up steem haha! It's a great investment, and passing that along to others just seems to make sense :-)

I refer to this one:

Ah. I have only seen @danknugs up-voting the comments that @randowhale leaves, not the posts themselves.

I've notice this as well. I've been wondering who is @danknugs. Hmmm

Thnx alot for the info, will try it out when i have the funds...
Keep up the good work mate!!!!

You're very welcome! Thanks for your support & comment.

Where has this post been all my Steemit life?! Thank you so much! I have someone that I really want to boost when he joins our community so this is one way to do it. Do you have other suggestions?

Getting them started with the #minnowsupportproject is great, obviously re-steeming their content, and if you want to buy them votes like with @randowhale, you can do similar things with @treeplanter, @minnowbooster, @booster, @discordia, and @bellyrub.

Hi @kennyskitchen, yes I figured out the different bid bots and have had a hey day and it all started with your post from 2 months ago. 😀

That's awesome :-)

I like your post. I from indonesia my friend. @bukharisulaiman

Thanks for your support.

Have an amazing day!

Everything running well.awaresome

Great, thank you!
