Thanks for sharing your journey, specially about the price going down from $4 to .2. I recently learned about STEEM so in my mind it always equates to approximately 1 USD.
FAIL FASTER is a new theme I am hearing from lots of entrepreneur mentors that I follow. Nobody likes failure but makes perfect sense if you want to succede and carve out your own niche.
Steem DOLLARS are supposed to be pegged to $1 USD. Though that hasn't been the case, which has worked in the favor of anyone redeeming their SBD rewards - though I'm really not sure who was buying them on the market, knowing they're only supposed to be worth a buck...
