My fellow Steemian and Bitshares believer.

This is tragic news. Well maybe tragic is too strong a word but it is depressing nonetheless. Who am I going to share my findings about Bitshares with?

I wish you the best. I understand how life takes over. We both feel we are in firm position with our holdings and I enjoyed our conversations about what is taking place.

Hopefully your schedule will clear up soon and your return imminent.

Like you say about the bull run I will apply to your return: not a question of if but when.

Who are you going to share your findings with? How about those 11,000 followers you have?

My friend, you are slowly but surely becoming a Steemit institution. I must say that our conversations were among the best I've ever had as a blogger. Thanks, keep up the good work, and as they say in Spanish, "¡hasta siempre!"

Many of us will miss you and your weekly posts man...Thanks for all the good moments, comments and upvotes you have provided to all the community...
Just in case you don't know, I am the creator of the @runningproject initiative which tries to promote the Running community at steemit. For the time being I think the initiative is going very well and every week we have more and more enrolled members...in order to sustain it I created a few months ago @isotonic which is a bid-based bot used to fund the project... I would be very grateful if you would consider delegating some of your SP to @isotonic, so you would get a passive income while helping us... @isotonic provides 90% of the total earnings to their delegators, the rest, 10% is going directly to fund the @runningproject initiative...
So, it will give you a passive income comparable if not more than the majority of the other bid-bots...It is worth to say that I am not getting any income from @isotonic more than the one coming from my own delegation to the account...
Read this post if you have a couple of minutes: https://steemit.com/running/@toofasteddie/delegating-sp-to-isotonic-as-a-good-option-to-fund-runningproject-initiative-and-get-some-passive-earnings

I hope you get back soon, with more time and, as usual, motivating ideas to share with all of us.
Steem on!

I knew you were an avid runner, but I didn't know about your inititive here in Steemit. Very good idea, and it exactly this kind of "niche" inititive that will make Steemit great. Everyone pitching in their two cents will turn this thing into a real wonder in the eyes of all, and I'm definitely going to take a close look at @isotonic - it sounds like a good place to put my 2¢ to work. Best of luck to you.

Thank you very much mate... Hope all the best for you and yours...
Hasta luego compañero!

@cryptographic,
First of all I am personally don't like this decision! Coz, you are one of the most worthiest Steemian on this platform! I have learn a lot via your posts and analysis! So, this might be a very bad news that I heard today!

You asked about SP delegation! Yeah Minnowbooster is a good choice! Specially you have 20K SP, so you can make a decent income through delegation as well!
But if I offer you 100% Liquidity + 80% Curation daily rental for 10K of your SP on my bot (Working on bot automation), I hope sometimes you might think about this offer as well! I will handle everything manually at this point, but sooner everything will be automated. (Working on that project at the moment)
I am looking forward to hear from you, but again I wish you might stay on this platform and will share your valuable market analysis with us! Coz, it's very rare to find worthiest Steemians like you do!

(If you like my offer, please comment below, I will help you to proceed the process)

Cheers~

Thanks for the heads up! I will definitely keep following you! Take care, good luck with everything, and most importantly, sit back and enjoy the ride! Cheers

So you want to deprive million of steemit user with your worthy post. It is not good for this forum. But being fair enough we can understand your problem. There is some thing more important in life than steemit. So wish you all the best for your life.
I fully support your idea to lease your power to minnowbooster. They are doing fantastic work for this community. I wish you good luck and still hope that you will write for this community once in blue moon. All the best @cryptographic

Thanks for that. Appreciate it, but, you're right, there are only 24 hours in a day, priorities are priorities, and somewhere along the line something gets dropped. Sadly, from a community engagement standpoint, happily from a personal standpoint (which means that knowing how good Steemit is, if there's no time for it, everything else must be even better), my active involvement in the Steemit community is what is getting the axe.

I wish you all the best @cryptographic

I believe Minnowbooster is a solid choice and will be there for a long time. One additional note, please review your witness votes before leaving. You have also free slots for your witness votes, that may be also a good time to fill your slots. :)

Wow! It looks like you are making a killing on Minnowbooster! I calculated out a daily rate of .0812% for you which = 34.48% a year I think. I'm not even going to try and attempt to do business with you. lol I have been paying like 30% on some of my loans though but I hope to get that lowered and have 0 intentions of renewing my 150 rate loans which do actually = 34.67% if I were to keep those.

Delegations have a 1 week cooldown period. Consider this (for the delegator) on your calculations.

Do you have any idea what your renewal rate is? I could probably give you a 23% rate with renewal.

You have also free slots for your witness votes . . .

Thank you for bringing that up, I do need to address that too. Recommendations beyond those I've already voted for?

me :)

I try to support backup witnesses. (Witnesses outside top20) Current witness voting page also favors top50 witnesses, which makes extra hard to get discovered if you’re outside of that line.

Take your time and have a look to all witness list. There are plenty of great people will be happy with your vote while your vote doesnt mean much at higher levels.

@cryptographic - Sir this is a heart break-en news... Your guidelines helped me to build solid investment on crypto world... I learn a lot & still learning through you...
Delegation SP is a good idea... Steem is a DPOS type platform, so you can make a good income by delegating... I wish you all the best Sir... Good luck & god bless you...

+W+

I've really enjoyed your participation. Keep up the good work. You've got great energy and a very interesting style. BTW, I've been thinking about what might be the most conservative portfolio in crypto, or, to say it another way, what would be the lowest risk portfolio, and it seems to me that the average investor just couldn't go wrong if he or she took the first 15 of Weiss Ratings and invested equally in each. No market cap weighted BS, no, just an equal distribution, for example, $15,000 spread out evenly, $1,000 to each, and it would be very difficult to lose money long term. The whole of crypto would have to go bust! Granted, you give up 500x potential, but long term a 50x on 15 grand isn't bad either, especially considering the low risk to begin with.

Just something I've been muddling over. Take care!

@cryptographic - Sir I wish one day you will be back & I'll follow what you said today & never forget this opinion... It's a bless that i met you on this platform... I wish you'll be back too Sir... Wish you great of luck & thank you Sir...

+W+

I am not sure what to say. Although I have followed you only for a couple of months but it's a really sad to see you leave.
I still hope that you occasionally do drop by because I am going to keep following you so that at least if you surprise us I am here to get receive it.

Thanks for all the past interactions man!

Thank you! I've enjoyed it just as much. Just don't have the time to do it right anymore, and there's this old saying that are words to live by that goes: no job, no matter how big, or how small, if it's not worth doing right, it's not worth doing at all. 😉

I like your creed :D

It’s not necessarily forever though, just the foreseeable future. I learned long ago to never say never.

😞! Let’s look at this from the positive side 😃. I hope we will read blogs from you here again soon. Perhaps as soon as when Steem price gets to at least $10.00 or more. I’m always excited when @cryptographic pops up on my notification app and hopefully soon will again. Well, I wish you the best!
Peace!

Oh Man your posts and nice votes will be missed!

I personally think that minnowbooster takes too big of a cut of your money to be 100% profitable, you should look into @tipu which pays you 100% of each vote + 60% of the curation rewards.

If you prefer vote selling over delegation, I prefer smartsteem over minnowbooster since the site is so much better and has more users and options to manage your vote selling, but in the end it's a matter of preference!

Thanks for that. Will look into both.

BTW, what's the difference between selling and delegation? How does selling work?

Vote selling uses your VP and it votes on other people using your account until a vp threshold is met, let's say 80% and then it stops selling until you reach 80% vp again which shouldn't be an issue since you will not be participating much anymore but it gives you flexibility, because you keep all your sp and can vote and reward things if you want to manually.

Delegating, if you delegate all your sp to a bot, you won't know where your sp is used and your vote value will go down to most likely 0 because all your sp will be delegated, it takes 7 days to recover delegated sp after you undelegate it and with vote selling you can configure it and change it around every time you want and make it stop or run again anytime you want without delegating your stake away.

If you are interested in smartsteem, I would love it if you used my referral link <3

Sorry to hear you are leaving as I always looked forward to your content and engagement. You inspire engagement in your comments which many times became valuable information for me. Wish you the best in your ventures and hope we can continue to make your investment in the STEEM blockchain worthwhile!

The same. Always looked forward to your comments. Have fun making STEEM great - I think it's about to take on a life of its own . . . if it already hasn't. There's no denying Steemit of its great destiny.

It’s really sad to read this. However, I totally understand it. I met here on Steemit platform great people including you. However, I have been taking it a bit slower lately here on steemit platform as well. Sometimes, there are other more important things. Because of that, I have delegated bigger portion of my SP To @tipu. I do recommend @tipu if you look for your SP to delegate. You can compare his returns with others. That’s what I did and he is definitely the most profitable. But you have to do your own research. I wish you the best and hopefully we will hear from you sooner than later. By the time I hope BTS and other cryptos will finally start a new bull market.

Another recommendation to look at @tipu! Will do!

A new bull market? It's not a question of if, just of when. 😉

That’s true! And that is the reason why I have always been so excited about crypto investments.
BTW: you must have a great reason to take a break, otherwise it’s never too easy to leave Steemit platform for longer period of time. I’ve seen here few people taking a break, many of them eventually came back sooner than they thought. I hope you are that case.

I think minnowbooster is a solid choice. I've spoken to cryptomancer a few times and he seems like a solid guy.

It sucks that you have to leave for a while but it's true that sometimes life takes precedence over everything else.

You're probably thinking who the heck is this guy?

I read your posts and occasionally upvote. I'm just not much of a commenter. Good luck.

It's always a nice surprise when a lurker says hello. Thanks so much! And thank for the insight into minnowbooster. From what I've read and been told, it seems to be the most seasoned and reliable option. Nevertheless, I still have to do my research . . . still haven't even had the time to do that. Cheers!

Lol bro... I feel kinda sad tbh. I enjoyed your posts and analysis and you are fine guy.
But aince you have no time I totally understand it.
By the way...if you feel like you wanna delegate some of your SP I wouldn’t say no!! 😊😊
Just kidding.
We will talk again since you ll be here until the 23rd

Without a doubt I think I can say the same about you!

With folks like you, like the many like you here in the comments, and everywhere on Steemit, there's no doubt in my mind that Steemit is going to be a great success!

Thank you so much for your support and your kind words too!

You act very wisely. The main disadvantage of STEEM is that it mercilessly absorbs time, like any other social network. But, personally, I will remember you as a great guy who was absolutely honest in his blog.
As for renting SP, more favorable conditions are offered smartsteem.

Вы поступаете очень мудро. Главным минусом СТЕЕМ является то, что он беспощадно поглощает время, как любая другая социальная сеть. Но, лично я буду помнить о Вас как отличного парня, который был абсолютно честный в своем блоге.
Что касается аренды SP, то более выгодные условия предлагает smartsteem. Удачи Вам и Любви.

I think one of the things that separates the wheat from the chaft is honesty . . . and taking about things you are knowledgeable about. And I really like that "mercilessly absorbs time" idea: it's brutally honest and said by someone who knows! Best of luck to you!

I can fully understand your choice, I kinda made the same decision a couple of months ago. Stopped posting and delegated to @upmewhale (highest payout and good clear rules about what the bot does and does not upvote, recommended).

But maybe, you will find yourself coming back to Steemit, see what's going on and comment here and there.

All the best to you!

You never know about coming back, but I don't see it happening anytime soon. And thanks for the tip. Thanks to you and everyone else, I've got a nice list to start with!

Really sad to see you go!

Thanks for all the support, wish you all the best

Perfect timing!!! lol
https://steemit.com/minnowbooster/@mysearchisover/let-s-make-a-deal-23-apr-voting-bot-deal-or-no-deal-164

It's a bit confusing but if you give me a $1 upvote I could just pay you a dollar to fix the low weekly rate for the first week which assumes I don't renew.
1 Steem per 200 per week = 52 Steem per 52 weeks 52/200 = 26% interest rate but it's only like 24 since minnowbooster takes a cut but 24% is higher than what the bots are paying.

http://isteemd.com/

I posted a lot of important to you. Your post was very good to me. I learned a lot from your important post which was a lot unknown to me. Read my post. I have had many benefits. Thank you very much for your important post. We will steamit you from the next day. More important post hope

Ahh this is sad man, i have no words but keep on investing and minnowbooster is a nice choice, you'll see the profits. Good bye Cryptographic 😔

Hello @cryptographic,

I'm not farewell you. Because, you should be here. When you get time, we can discuss more on crypto trading & market analysis.
You can delegate your Vest. It's a good thought to make more income. There are a lot of bot programs are looking for SP delegations. @tipu is one of them & @minnowbooster is another. My senses say both are good. But lot more bot programs are processing the same module.
Don't leave the platform, delegate & stay still.

Use this tool to find a good delegation service:
https://www.steemdesk.com/delegation/current

Check Username: @arama
You can compare APR % by using him delegations.
Most of delegation services are paying 100% Liquidity Profit with 60% Curation Profit at the moment.

~@mywhale

Departures are like a page of his book of life that we turn
It is necessary to turn the page with delicacy in order to come back there and draw the fruits of the experiment in other stages of its existence.

I did not have much opportunity to comment or upvote your posts that you posted in our community. However, the little I know of you makes me regret not having had the time to get to know you better. I wish you a great success in your new job and I hope you enjoy it. "

it's sad to see you leave, but if you got less time, it's hard to be attached with charts, posts & etc at the same time. but your idea of holding steem as power & delegation is a good idea. it's equals to have a mining machine of steem.
minnowbooster, postpromoter, jerrybanfield, smartsteem, upmewhale, boomerang
these bots are good for delegations. upmewhale, boomerang are the best of them. 100% liquidity & 60% curation they provide to you.
finally i wish all the best & success for your future endeavors. @cryptographic

@resteemia

Sir, first of all accept my sincere respect and love.

I just found out that you are leaving this community, I am very sorry to know that, sir, if you go from here, it really will be a very painful moment for me.

I used to read very carefully all your blog posts, which you do not read, and you were the only person who could completely market analysis for the community.

Very few members from this community have been going away for a while. Sir, you are going away today, which I really can not accept. I hope you will be good and I wish you good health.

Keep praying wherever you live 😞

Someone mentioned @tipU? :D tipuvote! 3
By the way, why are you leaving?

This post received 2.91 SBD upvote from @tipU funded by @cardboard | @cryptographic now has a chance to win free @steembasicincome share :) | For vote buyers | For investors.

Today you are going away with a good farewell which is a very painful moment for us.Today a very sad moment has been created in my life!

Minnowbooster is the best choice for leasing steempower because they are well experience in such business, but you can also lease your steempower to individual if you discus the modality and the amount you need for leasing your steempower and also the timeframe for your lease. We will truly miss your presence here @cryptographic

I think minnow booster is a great choice, so many people who are short on time lease their SP to the minnow booster. Another choice is smart market, I think it's a great deal too.
Dude we are going to miss you here. Can't you come and have a look here in your free time. Cheers

It's been a roller coaster journey following your thread on $10k to 1m and your insights into the market has been fantastic.
If/when we make it one day and Crypto becomes mainstream, hope to be able to catch you for a beer. Sad to see you go, but all the best in your future endeavours!

We will miss you!!!

Would you like to delegate some SP please???

Sad to know that, you are leaving. You were great about helping us with post, upvote and commenting. We will really miss you. Hope you will come back again with us. About delegating your SP, I do not have the about that. Since, I never did this. Sorry could not help you about that. Still, as far as I know, it is good, not sure about being best. Farewell....and good luck.

You just made me sad today well always love to see your analysis of crypto but hopefully you will find the time to come back frequently but i respect that you have other work too on priority so all the best to you for that :)

Hey guys!have you all heard about cereal?
Cereal allows to obtain a loan in cash secured by crypto or mining equipment without selling your investment.i know that there are already some other projects out there in the same area,but it can rule them all!
https://cerealfinance.com/,

You'll be missed for sure! I wish you all the best!

I 'm a fan of your posts and knowledge since the Bitcointalk-days. I hope you'll be back here one day.
But I sure do understand your decision. A man only got 24 hours a day. You have to divide your precious time between the projects you love most. Don't forget your family too, they're the most precious.

Hi @cryptographic ! Even if you will not reply comments for sometime, I just saw this post.

I have learned a lot regarding TA and trading with you, Thanks for all the posts! Also, regarding the portfolio rebalancing strategy, that was a great thing to share.

Hope to see you here posting again in the future!

Regards, @gold84
