RE: My first seventeen days on Steemit & D.Tube....Has it really been 'worth' it?

in #steemit6 years ago

Every person here waits for a significant following before having much success. The exceptions are those who invest twenty thousand. Those guys get an instant following in hopes of getting those monster votes.

There was a great article about this written a while ago.

Nothing is instant. Sorry to say that, but it is quite true.

Yeah I see your point there. I have been seeing folks post their first video to D.tube and instantly it is at like $30.00 from upvotes and I am like 'What the hell I have been doing this for a few weeks and uploaded around forty plus videos and none get that kind of return'..so what you are saying helps that make some sense to me. I embraced this platform because I love the technology behind it and like I said in my other reply in hopes of 'engagement' and meeting interesting people. :)

That article was written before DTube existed. I have noticed that DTube has a different thing going. If a video has a few votes as it becomes older than thirty minutes, whales will pick it up and make direct payments to their wallets for supporting that video.

I don't have much, but I can vote your video up and see if that triggers other votes. Anyway, as an observation, I have noticed the way this works.

Interesting. I appreciate the upvotes. :) Thank you.

I gave you one. All the actions begins at the 0:30:00 mark. Something to do with dtube.rewards. Look in my wallet. I get a reward in the transaction section for voting past the 30 minute mark on DTube videos.

These are the wallet payments. I am not sure why I don't get more of them.

Another thing I read in that article is that you should post one or two times per day. Nobody has enough voting power to cover all their friends. They certainly don't have enough to vote for all of your posts even if they love them!

Hey! Thank You @sux I did not see the image before. I did not quite understand how the 'voting power' worked but now I do. :)~

Sorry if I am dense but what am I looking for in the wallet?
