RE: I Just Powered Up ~81,000 Steem. That's Cool. You're Cool. Cool.

It's a blessing that you were able to find this platform at the time you did! Congrats on your recent power up and thank you for investing so much into this great community!

Quick question! Does one steem coin = 1 steem power?

1 Steem = 1 Steem Power = 1 Steem. They're on a level playing field, however Steem doesn't influence your voting power while Steem Power does. Your Steem Power is a vested interest and is locked up for 13 weeks, which you can power down and 1/13 of your stake will be converted to Steem weekly.

Did it change from 104 weeks?

Yup, it's now 13.

Oh shit! Thats a huge change that slipped by me. Its more incentive to do what you just did.

Yup, exactly. You aren't tied down super long if you need a little liquidity.

Thats sweet! I can probably make a living off of lighting up your comment section now. Hahaha jk

It really was! I've been into distributed computer and decentralized networking since the early 2000's and in the cryptocurrency space since the inception of Bitcoin, so I guess being a nerd all my life has finally paid off in some way. Although spending 12+ hours a day or as many as I can stay awake, probably isn't the healthiest decision, it has definitely made me a wiser person I feel.

Thanks for the kind words!!! You're most welcome. Hopefully I can use my newly gained influence for the greater good.
