Welcome to Steemit, the land of gift-based anarcho-mutualism on the internet :-) Following you!
I just gifted you a @randowhale vote as part of an idea I'm calling #payitforward. I'm also featuring you in my newest update on the project.
As you can see from this image, my 2 $BD payment to @randowhale just turned into an increase of around $6 on your expected payout (meaning 3 $BD & some number of SteemPower). If you were to spend just 2 of that extra $BD to #payitforward to another post, you would still be ahead and could give them the same kind of boost, or maybe even more :-)
Thanks for being part of Steemit, and maybe share some whale-vote love with other folks you enjoy reading, friends who join the site, or great posts you see. Check out @randowhale's introduction (linked in the comment above) and my announcement of #payitforward to learn more.
Steem on!
PS: Thanks @randowhale
