Hey Steemians!

So I have been slow for the past few weeks in terms activity on Steem. And what a bummer that I have been so, as this is the best time to be active on Steemit. Well, let me rephrase, Any time is the best time to steem, and now so more than ever as of yet.

Why? Well simply because of this..

1 Steem Backed Dollar is worth 5 times more than it's supposed to worth. Which means we are getting more value per post.

Just the other day I was checking on my payouts just to see how much are we getting as opposed to what we are supposed to get. I used one of my later posts that just got a payout as below.

You can see that Author Payout is about $7.16 USD worth of Steem and SBD, split in half in terms of the USD value.

So supposedly, should the price of SBD stays at $1 as designed. We should receive half of $7.16 (which is around $3.58) in both Steem and SBD. So according to the payouts, I should receive 3 dollars plus of Steem and SBD respectively.

However, as you can see I got around $3.58 worth of SBD. Which will make sense if SBD is priced at $1. But at current market price of SBD, I've gotten waay more than that!

You can see here. That's almost $18 dollars of Steem Dollars!! In short the reason why this happens is explained (with a bad analogy) in one of my earlier posts


Bonus Mindblow

And to put it into a Malaysian perspective, I've received almost RM 70 worth of Cryptocurrency!! That's food for 3 days!!! Like holy smoke!!

just today, i gave myself a try to withdraw my SBD (to go thru the process)...also noticed that the RM rates of our SBD is not as attractive as last week's.

always the challenge is after writing at the end of the post... where to tag hahahaha..

You can take a look at mavericks smart tag reports for ideas.

Yes, sbd and steem price like any other cryptocurrencies, jump up and down all the time. But the beauty is, any money we get is money we'll never get from Facebook and Instagram!

Most likely the price of cryptocurrency will see better colors after cny, because hopefully by then the market has resumed trading. As these things does affect price of steem since steem is still so small in terms of marketcap.. Only 1.2+ billion, and will subject to market influences.

yup, i've resteemed his tags and bookmarked it too.

Totally agree on FB and IG. At least here, we get money hahahaha...

Always the best time to start is now. Haha, still consider an early stage :) Steem on!

How do you consider the first million users of Facebook? First 10 million? Steem has only less than 800k accounts including bots. Imagine how early we are in this.. We are the fringe lunatics.. The bunch of people that are like the forum dwellers when bitcoin just started.

This is the best encouragement for us to keep moving. With such a scale, this is just the very beginning!

It is! Facebook at 2 years old is nothing compared to what it is now. What's more it wasn't the first in trying to do what it does. Steemit on the other really is the first.

The first to create a sustainable user tokenized social media.. No other platforms does that as good as Steemit

Ya, first of its kind and it is interesting too! Most of the time I am on Steemit rather on other social media. Even Facebook also experiencing a lot of obstacles but they recovered pretty fast and able to do testing via region (just like Google).
For Steemit, it is still new and there are so many creative schemes coming out from the users. Really lack of energy to follow everything, attention is limited. Nonetheless, that's the fun part, knowing it is somehow limitless.

Very true, it makes all the extra effort definitely worthwhile, amazing opportunity still with us.

The 4x of steem price since steemfest is incentive enough for me to go all in on this! What more with the amazing opportunity we are presented with now! Sure a pegged sbd may actually be more helpful in the long term for speculation, but that means no more cheap steem for us!

You'd have to watch what you eat to last 3 days on RM70, but true - the payouts are crazy indeed!

Oops! Was supposed to say "feed the family".. Hahahaha..

Well, bucket of beer a day for 3 days is almost around that numbers Hahahaha.

It is a really good time to be making Steem!

Amen to that!

your clarification is very helpful, I think we do not have to wait to venture into Steemit and all its possibilities :)

There is no waiting as there is no "perfect single moment".. Now is the time to be hustling and the longer we are at it will only benefit us.
