How and Why Delegate Steem Power? SP Delegation Tutorial!

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

Steem power delegation tutorial.png

Delegating Steem power allows us to give another user the benefits of the stake we receive holding Steem! The most helpful tool I have found for doing that is available at http://jerry.tips/spdelegate which I demonstrate using in this tutorial!

Watch the Video Tutorial on @Dtube!



Why Delegate Steem power?


  1. Empower an application, author, or curator to make higher votes. @dtube, @dsound, @utopian-io, and @dlive have large delegations from Steemit Inc which help incentivize the use of these apps by providing higher rewards for authors using them and receiving upvotes. Thousands of individual users have delegations to help provide more effective curation.
  2. Earn money as an investor using voting bots. For an investor simply hoping to hold and earn without taking time to read posts and upvote every day, delegation to voting bots provides a transparent and simple system to get automatic daily payouts. Delegating to me currently earns about 36% APR in Steem for delegations. When the Steem and/or SBD price goes higher, these earnings also can increase significantly. At one point the payouts were 60%. View all the bots at https://steembottracker.com/.

How to Get Steem?


For those of us newer to Steem, learn the basics including how to buy and sell on exchanges to fund our account at http://steem.guide.

Thank you for watching this video on @dtube which I hope is helpful for learning about delegation on the Steem blockchain!

Love,
Jerry Banfield

I am not sure if I understand,
What happened if I delegate Steem Power to @jerrybanfield, for example, I earn anything with his upvotes and curations?

@jerrybanfield
This question is for you... Please answer

@introvert-dime thank you very much for your upvote and comment, I am glad that the post is useful for you.

On SteemD I see you are not voting for any witnesses yet which is normal with about only 5% of users on Steem voting for a witness. Meanwhile, witness votes are the most important we make on Steem because witnesses create our blockchain in real time and are our chosen community leaders.

The easiest way to fully participate is to choose one person we trust as a "proxy" to make all of our witness votes for us. Will you please either add me to your witness votes or set me as a proxy at https://steemit.com/~witnesses because this will empower you to indefinitely support me for witness and increase the funding for @budgets?

You've got my vote right now. It my first vote for witness.

Oh, pardon me. It's the second;-)

I voted for you, you might as well be my first witness vote since this gives me a bit better idea on what's actually happening here.

I just joined Steemit. I wrote an article on facebook copying crypto.
How do I vote and witness?
Please follow me and vote for my article.
Thanks,
Ed

Yep man...!!

Please follow me back and also vote for me...

So many bots to choose from, so lil time ** hahaha**

Hi friends I am new here on steemit. Is there anyone who can vote for me.

Jerrybanfield is the most inspiring teacher 👩‍🏫

how do you post a photo?

Copy the image URL and then Paste. As simple as that.

And where do I find web space to store the picture?

You don't need a web space. You can copy and paste any picture, even from your hardware.
See the green "selecting them" clickable option on the bottom of the window?

Press it, select the picture:

And Click open.

Here is what I've got:

As simple as that.

@anakur thank you very much for your upvote and comment, and also your tutorial here.

I see you have voted for one witness so far at https://steemit.com/~witnesses and did not make a vote for me yet! Will you please add me to your list of witness votes because your witness vote for me will help fund additional projects to grow Steem via @budgets?

Hi Jerry , new to steamit , would appreciate your guidance

Does that also work to select a profile picture? I don't see any link for selecting a profile picture.

For posts I do see this link, so thank you!

nice one bro,you are truly a God sent.

Thanks for helping 👍🏼.. I added sth more easier for him

thank you, i'm new here it's easy for me now

Thank you for making this free. This will surely help those seeking to prosper on Steemit and those who are caught up in all the technicalities and jargon involved in starting a Steemit account. Upvoted and following you for awhile now.

When you are writing your comment , you will find under it a green link “sekecting them” look down here. You just click it and 1305D782-9C70-4C36-B6CF-597522815DC8.jpeg choose from pictures stored on your phone or computer.. wait to upload 100% then post

Ah, I think you mean inspiring right?

Haha ... yep .. I fixed it then I saw your comment lol

Jerry is very inspiring and very knowledgeable about steemit

Yes he is Epic really !

You are the best Jerry, thank you for all of your hard work!

Resteemed to BestOfSteem!

Purely in terms of returns, I'm curious how this stacks up to just selling your vote to minnowboosters?

thanks for the inspiring post

Hi Jerry, delegated some SP to you but I messed up somehow by upgrading it to the max I got. Now when I try I cannot sign in with steemconnect.com when I delegate the wheel (at SIGN IN) just keeps spinning. Anyone else has that problem and/or a solution? Thanks!

Thank you very much @cryptochallenge for delegating SP to me. I suggest you keep 15 SP so the account can work smoothly. You can either wait for some rewards to come in and the account will work again, or un-delegate, with a 7-day cool down, and re-delegate afterwards at a lower value.

Thanks for this information. Can we also lease steem power from you?

You thanks for giving the possibility. I finally found the solution. (I used the wrong password ...)

PEER TO PEER PROJECT INFO :

Thanks Jerry. As always you share lot of important stuff. though its a known topic, its kind of revision.

Jerry thanks for your insights into the many aspects of Steemit. I have a much better understanding how users who delegate Steem Power are really reaping the benefits of this powerful tool.

Excellent

Thanx for sharing.

Another great tutorial from @jerrybanfield ...!

I like the short ones though 🤔

must get more steem power ....

hello anyone can give me 220 sp for delegation i really need that bcz by this i can 500 sp and i can upvotes more 1-100% voting power use now its very difficult to vote all who comment and like my post soo plz anyone can give me sp i ll pay for that

Great tutorial @jerrybanfield I learned a lot I didnt know about Delegation! Also, you can delegate your Steem Power using steembottrackers website and click the tools tab! Something I do not think a lot of people know about either yet :D

Sincerely,
@joeparys

Yeah man ... you are a great blogger too .. birds of feather flock together 😀😎👍🏼

Thank you very much Joe Parys for mentioning that!

Hi was bedeutet das über Steembottrackers-Website delegieren.
Habe zurzeit Minnowhelper

Thanks for your really nice comment. I like the idea of delegation but also leasing steem power, because then you can get the benefit of more SP for your posts. You've got a new follower!

Good job bro

Thanks for your information @jerrybanfield.

You’r welcome ! 😀

Thanks for explaining this, delegation is one thing about steemit I still really do not understand, and I had no idea you could get that kind of return on bots!

🗅

Hey Jerry thanks for the post. However, down the road wouldn't this kind of a system result in Steemit being full of posts that don't actually contain value but just had the most capital to bid? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of steemit?

hello @jerrybanfield i just so you video on youtubeand its the any calculator to see how many steem i will be rewarded if i delegate you 200 steem p i really like you work i'm interested to help you to make the p2p exchange on steem platform.thanks

Did it Jerry !!! Now lets see how it works out ... :-) Thanks man!

This is a very informative post. I'm going to resteem it so that I can see it in my blog. I'm not there yet, but I can see myself possibly delegating voting power at some point down the road. Gotta work on finding those trusted curators who see things pretty close to the way I do :)

good point

Sure why not, also leasing SP can be very helpful if you post a lot. Following YOU!

Thanks for the information @jerrybanfield
great blog

It is really a good thing to give and it is good to help others thanks so much for the video it was really helpful

why has this video not been working for a few days. Anyone else having the same problem?

passive income 👍👍

I agree with u boss, delegating allows the minnows have a taste of the goodies of steemit, whilst working for the good of the community. I wish everyone knew the good delegating will do the the community at large

So far so good .. if no newer rules come to change

Dear Jerry that is great! I just started my votingbot today! In order to be listed in the voting bots not just in other bots, I need 5k steem pover! I willing to pay for it! please check my bot @postdoctor

Hey everyone, I'm new to steemit and I'm a writer
I'll be dropping nice stories soon, I need people to follow up. So I'll be following a lot. Y'all follow back please 😭😭😭

Thanks @jerrybanfield +100 Delegated - Aloha!

Thanks @jerrybanfield +1000 SP Just Delegated, Aloha!

It's my first time watching You and You seem like a guy who knows what he's talking about, it's actually nice to listen to You :p I kinda hoped for an opposite topic though... There's so much demand for Steem delegation that minnows can't really get to it. Blocktrades is already spent and makes preorders but I have no idea how to order it now. I've also tried minnowbooster and it's going to be my 2nd day of waiting but it seems there are much more profitable offers than mine so no high hopes there. Perhaps You could make a video regarding buying delegation for minnows? That is, if minnows should even consider this but I've heard it's not a bad thing. I'd really appreciate it!

dtube is really very good
your tutorial is great i see
for sharing thanks to you
i hope you will continue it on steemit
go ahed dear........best wish to you

thats great and really helpfull for all of person who still dont know how to delegate steem power good job @jerrybanfield
also wait your wonderfull app for steem to usd

hi @jerrybanfield,I am totally agree with you,but I have applied lease request from minnowbooster two times,but I didn't get it.Do minnowbooster does not fill the request who pays less steem?Then how could I survive in steemit,I have only 70 sp.would you give some sp to me as a rent,I will pay your fees and what do you mean by "36% APR in Steem for delegations",please explain me if you read my comment.Thank you @jerrybanfield,upvoted and resteemed.

At a time where questions are springing out on comment sections and on different steemit communities on Discord, whatsapp and telegram on how to delegate steem power to others expecially the newbies who are constantly experiencing bandwidth issues, I believe this tutorial will greatly help in answering those questions and it is easily comprehensible too.


Thanks for sharing this wonderful tutorial with us @jerrybanfield. It really came at the right time.

Hoping to see more tutorials and quality posts from you.

Happy Steeming

I agree, leasing steem power is also a great option for those who post a lot. If you don't post, better to just earn interest by delegating.

Thanks for doing this video, @jerrybanfield. I feel like once I figured out delegations, it was like seeing the Matrix.

Thanks Jerry!

Jerry, Awesome content as usual. Will send you some steempower. Thanks a million for all you for the Steemit community..

How can I delegate SP to you as an investor and earn benifit from your upvoting bot??

he just show u how already, didnt u watch the video?

Hi @jerrybanfield. You are my steem hero. I've voted for you as a witness and resteemed your posts. I've also delegated 50 SP to you. But, did I do it the right way? https://steemd.com/tx/7ebec648a93434931f6c5ce2c8c8674cb55e8cf0

Thanks so much for the lovely video it is really useful

thanks for this informative video, i wish the whole steemit community can see this and do same

So Jerry, I have to say it is predominantly you that brought me over into the Steemit platform. Your videos and clearly your passion for this endeavor is contagious. Steem may be one of the few crypto - endeavors I've found that has a truly hands on use-case building for it to exist. Thanks so much for your hard work and helping us "micro-minnows" even have a clue in how to get up and moving in this thing. Peace. Resteemed.

Yes I Agree, a hard worker and promoter of STEEMIT! Thanks for your nice comment @genxrev, following you!

Thanks for the follow. I'm beginning to understand all the words, videos, etc. of what a "steep hill" it is to climb in just starting out on Steemit, but I am confident with a good amount of perseverance and old fashioned "elbow grease" I'll see this thing light up. May your endeavors on Steemit be blessed as well. Peace.

You know what Henry Ford said about doing things?
