Hey Louis,
Wanted to get your advice, I see you have significant steem power. Was this built up solely by creating and curating content? I have only been on steem 10 days, but while I have been active I am frustrated that I cannot support my followers and give back to the community, my steem power cannot even generate $0.01 of value per vote.
I appreciate it takes time to amass this power, but I am thinking about buying steem to enable me to contribute more to the platform and its future.
Would you advise this? I see people also rent steem power but I haven’t looked into the economics of it yet.
If everybody could push his favourites from the beginning, we had an inflation and would make steem worthless. Nothing wrong with buying some Steem (it´s also on Binance now) as you buy every other currency. And remember: Steem is also at a good position on Weiss Ratings. And if your vote is less worth than 0.01$ you need to wait for your steempower to recover (steemnow.com/@cryptocartograph)
Thanks, yep I’ve found that too, I got a bit trigger happy with the upvoting this week so reigning it in now. Will try to keep it above 80% every day from now on.
I’ve seen the Weiss ratings but don’t buy into them much, the company is not that reputable and has done some sketchy things in the past.
I think now is a good time to buy some steem!
I agree, it really feels like a bracket in the beginning...but give it a few month. Of course it´s more important to gain more users etc. than any rating. Good luck and steem on :)
According to my calculations, definitely buy. Renting delegation looks like a total waste of Steem.
