I'm keeping my eye on that downward trend on the daily. That big pop we had yesterday moved us a good deal upward, but didn't quite break the trend. I'm wanting to put the rest of my crypto-investment fund into Steem, but I'm worried about the Bitcoin crash pattern repeating again. Crypt0 says it better in his video here, starting at 9m18s:
Your note about how you have a plan and are disciplined with your Steemit routine triggered an interesting thought. I am the same way, I even set timers and alarms to remind me when my voting power hits 100%. I'm wondering if this is too much maintenance for mass adoption? On the one hand, it's a bit of a complex system compared to something like Facebook. On the other hand, most of the mechanics are invisible to the novice user (they probably aren't poking around Steemd, etc.) and perhaps they will not even notice they are being inefficient, and therefore not care, until their votes are almost 0%.
Agreed on the Steem dailies ... a failed attempt to break the upside yest.
Most interesting newbie Q I had today: What is voting power? Mmmmmm ... gonna be a long day this one!
Ok thanks I always wondered that lol I know about the weight what about if steem drops does the SP always stay the same? Some talk about getting interest but it clearly says 0% interest
actually some people ARE Vote Power Shaming.
for some damn reason they think they have the right to tell other people what to do
I muted them...they can talk to themselves.
azzurra is a genius :D I am proud of her... :D I am tired of all these fake nuns :D and I give you also a gift, since I am almost euphoric for the end of my German course :D
HA! I totally concur with the pains of walking away from Steemit @mindhunter. My voting power is back up around 87% but it's been a strict change in my habits. Thanks for the video.
You almost lost me with the @kraig-Rant reference, the poster-boy for circle jerks.
My voting power has finally recovered to almost 60% after consistently running it down into the 30's.
You're spot on about having to just get away from Steemit in order to recover your VP. I feel like I'm doing a disservice to this platform to let people who post quality content get shit-all for their time and effort, especially when I see some of the other abuse going on and I don't feel as bad if I haven't been there to upvote.
Yes @theblindsquirl - new conditioning behaviour is required here for HF-19! It's a tough gig for many who have commented on this post, but we'll get there :)
I love that t-shirt @mindhunter!
I cannot stand the limits of upvoting 100%. Only ten votes...It's ridiculous.
I'm limiting my 100% upvotes to my #payitforward people and my own posts. I don't upvote my comments but I do try to comment my favorite people with anywhere from 10 to 50%.
I had to stop my SteemVoter bot because my account was down to 50%. It was great while I was away but I'm back and it looks like I've returned to organic curation again. Unfortunately I'm missing a lot of people that I normally upvote. I guess I'll get use to it.
Anyway, great video @mindhunter. I'll be honest, I don't click a lot of vlogs/videos. It's too easy to get distracted and do other things while they're running and then I miss the message. LOL (I partially blame my broken brain for that.) ;)
It's like organic curation on a diet @merej99! It feels kinda constipated. You can't quite get into the groove. Your start and then it's time to stop!! Thanks for the video watch - that means a lot from an old Steemian! :) So nice to hear from the old Steemians - the mammas, the barrys, the merejs etc etc. :D
Good post, and great comments! I'm going to get my shamed-ass back to 100% and then mute the haters and upvote the sk8ers!
...i think i can drop a little over $.30 when i am full power :)

Just the right dash :) haha good advice i cant get back to 100% its so hard. Can i get back if i buy SP?
resteem Shane :)
No, but it will increase your upvote weighted $ size at 100% power :) Safe journey home R2W ....
Ok thanks I always wondered that lol I know about the weight what about if steem drops does the SP always stay the same? Some talk about getting interest but it clearly says 0% interest
If the Steem price drops then you'll get more SP at your 7 day payout.
The Steem inflation rate is currently around 9%.
P.S. I see the resteem. Thank you Sheryl. Thank you :)
Thank you too Shane :) I always keep my word. PERIOD lol
I never doubted your evergreen-ness @road2wisdom - your dad taught you well. Good dad thing.
actually some people ARE Vote Power Shaming.
for some damn reason they think they have the right to tell other people what to do
I muted them...they can talk to themselves.
lol Sorry that was funny "they can talk to themselves" ha
I like that one! :)) So true!
Lovin' that new term - sounds like a post in the making for ya Everitt! Forward me the link for a free RS if ya do :)
heh...I think I've already did it..
kinda sorta
no worries...there will be MOAH.
Nah! We need a Power Shaming dictionary definition with memes ... get on the case old man! These minnows need an educatin'!
I'd rather take a nap.
I worked on the SteemDreem a lot yesterday
in 100 degree heat.
wore me out..
Take a nap Everitt ... the buttons will still be here later :)
thank you
I think I will
(ouch)...arthritis is acting up...and I haz sunburn..
I haven't yet been shamed for my vote power but I think I'd probably mute them too.
I've become VERY free with my mute button
life is too short to put up with fools.
I haven't yet understood what voting power is...
Check what it is here @raznar: https://steemnow.com/
I totally agree with your thinking because after hardfork 19 everyone now using their upvote more carefully.nice to see the video thanks.
Good luck getting home to 100% @thecryptotrader :)
