I think it's easy to get discouraged when the price drops, but if a person is powering up and not selling, then who cares what the price is? Sure, the votes are smaller when the price is down, but the rewards are bigger. It all works out about the same. I'm still posting and made it over a month with a post every day. I've posted almost every day for the last 2-3 months and I'm starting to see the effect of that in terms of higher SP. It's not easy and I haven't really gained new followers, but my account is still growing and one day I think crypto will bounce back.
I've even been approached by nerved-up doomsayers who have need for both a hug and a slap across the face. I'm not giving away any hugs.
Ha ha!
Have fun with your projects!
