Ya for anyone else reading this, #minnows are basically people with no or low amounts of SteemPower. When they upvote you, you get basically nothing but a vote and bump on the active charst. #Dolphins have medium steam power and can pass you a few dollars worth bragging about when they upvote you. The #whales are the CEO's and CFO's of the whole thing and one upvote from them can bring a windfall to your posts. Guys like @ned and @dan who are probably getting sick of me tagging them are whales. I've seen their likes generate over $1000 on a single upvote.
Wanna know who to get to upvote your posts? Go here: https://steemd.com/richlist
yeah it would have been nice to be in the inner circle of those who got to build up steem power when there was only a few peeps on here and the price was super low.
I try not to pander, if one of the whales see's my post and upvotes yay, in a year we'll have a lot more steem power than we do now and be considered a dolphin/whale to the noobs joining (I didn't join facebook till it had been up for a couple years)
It's still
Very new !
I am building slowly ! Take brakes , read and write again . It's such valuable platform with interesting topics I would have never seen anywhere else . I am not analyzing much . Just to be here with the first 30k creatives is already exciting enough .
