I have the POWER!!!

in #steemit7 years ago

OK...it might only be 0.05 Steem, but it is great to see my own Steem Power increase and also be able to reward the content that I enjoy.

I've worked hard to build this up and the temptation to power down is strong (I will not lie), but being able to share my Power with others is part of what keeps me often glued to Steemit and what makes Steemit an awesome platform

I just have to remember to use my power responsibly.

Sort:  

I expect this platform to continue taking off. That .05 steem could snowball into a fortune one day.

It has huge potential. I know that I have benefited greatly from being here

I put most of my Crypto into Steem because I believe in it. However, I also have really enjoyed the platform. Good luck with your snowball and keep the great content flowing!

Well done, @mbgbtb My STEEM investment is only small, but so glad that I signed up

In all fairness, I'm in the US. After fear that Bitfinex might burn us US users, I made the final plunge to steem. I'm quite happy to have stumbled across this platform when I did, it has been much more interesting that Facebook. I also genuinely like the idea that authors and curators are making a profit, and original content is prevailing. Lot of great minds floating around.

Had ETP on Bitfinix but put it in a wallet. I like Steem, but need to discover how best to get my content seen by more. I guess it is engaging with others, writing quality content and being consistent and original

How much time did it take you to achive it? seems like working hard isn't enough and you have to be patient too :/

Sounds good (whatever it means!) I have this in my account:

0.501 STEEM
(+14.505 STEEM)

Does that mean if I power down I get 14.5 steem? but if I don't I have more weight when upvoting other peoples posts?

You'll get 1/16 of 0.501 Steem each week for 16 weeks

OK, thanks for the info, definitely slowly learning....

And yes, the power gives you more weight
