Just a quick update on the current situation.
After waking up to a nice surprise yesterday morning when I saw the overall earnings on the Steemleak.com launch post jump up over the $1k mark- at its peak I saw it reach the $1300 range!
I was stoked at the thought of being able to make such a significant contribution to wikileaks + generate so much value for participants - and in such an early stage of the project.
442.99SDB and 126.286 steamBy the time the payout and split happened @steemleak was awarded
I quickly checked out @mauricemikkers awesome steemdollar to see just how bad the SBD discount was today.
Bad. Its terrible timing to sell IF SDB will eventually return to $1 . I already took a decent haircut on the first smaller payout, and I really want to give wikileaks as much as possible.
Here's what we'd end up with if I traded SDB at the current prices across the current top exchanges
Poloniex gives the best deal, working out to $0.84004 per Steem Dollar
Bittrex was very close behind at $0.83216 - arbitrage bots are doing their job nice between these two exchanges
And then there's blocktrades (witness #11) at $0.7131 ..
I'm disappointed because blocktrades seemed to be trusted, and the best option in terms of transparency for the steemleak project. Gotta say, this seems a little greedy. I'll leave it at that tho, lest I piss off any whales..
Anyway here is my tradingview poloniex sdb chart - only 1hr timeframe as we don't have a lot of polo trading history to work with yet.
It looks like its getting support to me, and even just sideways will look like a breakout as it runs into the trendlines, and we have a nice ichi cloud twist up ahead too. Surely market makers will step in to take the profits, and this is just the result of panic sellers who bought at a premium last week or in the crazy spike during polo launch.
time and effort into this site and community.
I've ignored the short sighted people calling it a ponzi, and I plan to continue doing so.
Myself and my partner @krystle have already invested a lot of
I'm already effectively locked into looking after @steemleak for at least 2 years due to the powerdown process..
After a lot of pondering, examining market history, re-reading the whitepaperposts
My faith in the design of the SBD peg system has been renewed., chatting with @pharesim and others on @stakepool and digging through some great by @dan discussing the peg ..
I've come to a few conclusions:
- I've decided to hodl SDB for myself, @steemleak and my partner @krystle for the time being.
- My initial approach to automated selling was too basic
- Theres a lot of money being left on the table still in this market
- Automated market maker bots are being greedy
- I should build a bot.
.. But it's 4:30am AEST right now. Time for a powernap before the kids wake up at 6.
it looks like good news ... thanks @ausbitbank
