I remember when block trades went down and I had no idea how to get steem power. I've never accumulated to my goal 1000 and I hope to put in more but sadly the prices have started to go up due to the fact the wallets have been unfrozen haha
I don't know why the masses use poloniex. I guess many new people see poloniex as the first exchange and use it. Also it is one of the largest exchanges so there is a lot of liquidity.
Finally you have got your 4 steem out after all this wait.
The previous designs @twistychips did were absolutely amazing and I can't wait to see some new renders and mock ups. Also this is one step forward starting a great steemit economy.
At least the total market cap has increased drastically and it doesn't look like it will stop! :)Let's just hope exchanges don't freeze their wallets again @exyle haha
