Hey @philnewton thanks buddy, I was guessing it may have had something to do with that but wasn't sure. I gave you a 100% upvote and it only gave you $0.51.

No problem, and thanks for the upvote! The exciting thing about it is that as the value of Steem increases, so do our upvotes. Just think what your current upvote could be worth if Steem is worth $15/$20/$100 in the future!

You've motivated me, I'm gonna keep it 100

Yeah I'm not overly worried about what it's worth in today's terms. It'd be nice to get it up a bit, but it's the future price that's really appealing.

I weep for all those people that are cashing out their Steem now.

Yup, wondered this back in the day and Phil is spot on. all about the price of steem.

I'm sure we'll start getting a little more for our upvotes soon. Hope so anyway. ;-)
