RE: What would you do if you woke up and you were gifted with 1000 Steem?

in #steem7 years ago

Sounds like good stuff to do with 1,000 STEEM to me. Especially since you've already been thinking about things you would do if you had the STEEM. I guess I haven't got that far in the process yet.

It would be awesome to actually see these transactions going onto the blockchain. Do we all go to a witness server to what this, or is the another way? You mentioned blocktivity. Is that how?

Anyway, great post. Thanks for sharing what you would do, and I'm looking forward to one day seeing you do it. :)

Sort:  

It would be awesome to magically have Steem I had not already intended to have. I have a personal goal of hitting 10k steem so I won't power down or give any of the Steem I currently have away. But if I were to be given, so too I could give.

And blocktivity is a website that shows each blockchain and their transaction in the last 24 hours, as well as their all time record. Steem is always the most used, it also holds the current all time record at over 2 million transactions in 24 hours. The blockchain wasnt near peak capacity. So if one day we could all just post lots, comment lots, and send lots of micro transactions around to each other. We could put up a number that would be really hard to beat.

Hopefully one day I get the opportunity to. If Steem goes up it would take less for me to be able to do it and since I am fortunate enough to make a little from my posts, it could be achievable since i could use less Steem and reward just as much money.

I was actually encouraged after seeing your post on the same subject. I didn't go into the getting 10k , 100k, and the million though lol! Thanks for being on this website and sharing your thoughts yo, you are appreciated!

I'm afraid I wasn't nearly as generous in my thinking from the get go. Depending on where you live and what you've earned, I suppose, 1,000 STEEM could sound like a lot. I used to think that about $2,000 USD a month, until I was trying to live on it in Southern California. It turned out that it didn't go very far.

But in STEEM's case, 1,000 can equal $1,500 USD like it did recently, or it could equal $3,950 like it does now, or it could be $1 million dollars by simply doing what Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash have done.

So, keeping as much of it as possible in and around the blockchain sounds like a good idea to me. So does setting the all time 24 hour record for number of transactions. :)

You just can't find conversations like this one on the other platforms. Thanks to both of you. I appreciate finding and reading conversations like this one. I am also learning more about Steem.
