RE: Is Self Upvoting Wrong? What's my Strategy?

in #steemit7 years ago

I'm not very active on this plateform and my vote is worth nothing.

Steemit allows self-upvotes. The reward pool doesn't suffer of my $0.00 upvote. So I upvote my own posts, not my comments.

If I don't upvote my own post, nobody else does it.

Thank you for commenting @droida and showing your graphs. You need more SP for a better experience.

Thank you for the tip :)

Currently, I must have 20 SP in order for my vote to be $0.01 worth.

I own 8.254 SP, +6.764 SP delegated by @steem. Really, thank you @steem for the initial support of 15 SP.
Buying 5 SP is not enough to have 20 SP because @steem will cease his support. I should buy 11.746 SP. The price of 1 STEEM is now $4.03. The cost for me to have a minimum of influence on this plateform is $47.34. 50 dollars, that is expensive!

I will not earn $0.01 but $0.0075 for a self upvote, and will have to post 6312 times to get my expense returned. With making one post a day, it will take 17 years, 3 months and 2 weeks.

17 years !!!

It's so long, I will be old. Very discouraging. Sure that it will take less time. With time, my vote will have more value cause my SP balance will grow.

I see that you know your calculation for your SP, but I bet you won't need 17 years. You will have some posts with more rewards you could power up and also win a contest. There are many contests that could earn you what you need. I upvote this 100% so you get closer to your goal.

Thanks. A more optimistic view:
Since June 2017, 11 months, I've earned 8.254 SP. That's an average of 0.75 SP per month.
This way, only 15 months and 3 week is needed for a $0.01 (self) upvote.
