RE: BlockTrades is running a temporary "HF20" sale on Steem delegations (50% off)

in #blocktrades6 years ago

With a limited budget you should always aim for the most cost effective strategy. Regardless.. I still believe that delegation is highly overpriced.
SP has lower value then liquid steem due to the time restraint of powering down and lack of liquidity that imo isnt offset by the curation earning potential due to volatile market. Bought delegation offers even less value do to having to be returned to the delegator after set time.
Bought delegation needs to offer a positive ROI after the 3 month date comes to pass.
Otherwise its a foolish investment that impovereshes you. Thus, eventually taking away your power to have any effect on the reward distribution or being a part of the social dynamics here.
On the other hand, Powering up, Using bots(rather upvote services) creates a long term certainty of retaining influence, having a potential to empower others long term and of you being a "factor" on the steem blockchain.
