Wait long enough and the decision is made for you. Which may mean it was for the best. There really needs to be a better way of doing this, no doubt. Our experiences are similar so far. I didn't hop on Steemit to buy STEEM, but now I kind of feel like I need to just to keep up and have something to reward people with.
Anyway, happy posting and rest well.
I didn't come to Steemit to invest either @glenalbrethsen. In fact, I had no idea just how important the financial side of things was and I've been dragging my feet about getting involved in it.
I really didn't want to buy any power. I wanted to see what I could do without using any real money. But as I saw people who started the same time as me getting further and further ahead, whilst doing much less work I decided I needed to reconsider that idea.
I decided to invest £500 which, quite honestly isn't enough to make any real difference but whilst being here and beginning to learn about crypto and steemit works it was hard to keep plodding on as slowly as I was.
So far I've spent £200 and i'll keep spending a bit more everyday. After that I'll have to see how I feel,
The biggest drawback for me of the fall in price is the drop in engagement. A lot of people I follow, who've been round a while, seem to have stopped posting altogether and so aren't here to comment on my posts either.
I was posting 4 times a week but I've dropped to twice a day now. it's beginning to feel a bit like Facebook where it feels like I'm just posting into the void.
I'm not sure what I'll do next week. 😊
