Put your money where your mouth is

At least that's what some people say when someone is very loud and vocal about a topic when there's nothing at stake. It's easy to be supportive or positive about something when you are not risking anything.

Wether it is time, effort, knowledge, money or creativity, everyone on steem has something at stake. The price of the coin affects us all and, at least I like to think that way, we all care about our platform's health and community's overall behaviour.

I'm loving the New Steem, I'll tell you why in just a few bullet points

  • Bid bots are beginning to do manual curation
  • People who used to delegate to bots, removed their delegation and are curating again
  • High quality authors who once left are coming back to Steem now that the economic model encourages content discovery and manual curation (although I hope curators also remember who stayed during the dry season).
    *High quality content creators are being rewarded while spammers/low quality authors are not enjoying themselves under the new curation system.
  • More people are buying Steem because now, holding and powering up Steem actually represents a good return of investment.
  • We can flag now without stop earning money in the process. Whales are now actively downvoting content they dont' agree with reward wise.

For that - and some other reasons - I decided to buy 20k Steem!

For some whales out there it might not be much, but for me it means growing the Steem I own in 40% , from 50k to 70k! I'm really happy and I expect so much from this #NewSteem that I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is.

It doesn't matter how much Steem you buy and power up, as long as you do it! Let's make Steem moon, the only way we can achieve that, is doing it together!

greetings, @anomadsoul

Excelent idea, man!!!

Nice one. The last time I made a major purchase of Steem was exactly the same amount, at like $2.50 lol.

I bought at all half dollar prices starting from $6. Lol. Not proud about it. But now bought about 40K. Will see ;)

It's a good time, maybe. I'm too overexposed already so I'mma chill lol 😂

You are overexposed because you started early:) That aside people in your community loves you though as you are very supportive. Especially steem over there is considered a big deal, and much of a social experiment. Here in US, where it’s born, even in its hometown of Austin,TX nobody knows what steem is!

Bizarre! The main thing is people don't understand this complex modus operandi of steem. They soon give up.

Ouch, though I bought some at $3.85. It still makes me shudder.

That’s a lot of STEEM. I respect the hustle. I think I might buy some myself today. 😤

You definitely should! This price won't last that long, #newsteem is full force and I'm betting a continuous uptrend still begin soon.

Really hope so, STEEM price is still down for two weeks since the HF.

anomadsoul , estimado te cuento que aun no entiendo mucho steem y como se relacionan las compras con las publicaciones de "buen contenido".Soy artista y quiero ganar y que ganemos todos ,hasta a veces imagino que esta plataforma podría ser menos humana , me gusta esa idea, que los usuarios sean quienes son simplemente y nos alejáramos de lo humano,bueno pero volviendo a las compras atractiva la frase de poner mi dinero donde este mi boca y tener 20k Steem y no se ni lo que es ¡¡¡
saludos de un principiante

It’s refreshing to see people that are so positive about the new path of Steem.

Woo that's sweet! I just bought 59.552 Steem and then came across your post lol. I am not yet in your league but I'm still swimming :) You are an inspiration to all!

We're both in the same league, the league of confident early adoption Steemians who know Steem is meant to moon sooner or later! No matter how much or how frequently, the key is to keep buying 💪

.. thank you for the highmotivated and at the same time highmotivating post..step by step I m understanding more and more, your post helped me also..will try to put my little money together and buy steem as well...thank you again!..up..follow you..steem on!..

Wow that's huge compared to the stake I own, at least it'll allow you shake some tables, congratulations buddy.

It's not about comparing man! My stake is nothing compared to other people. The important part is the mindset with which we interact on Steem and we both are on the right track 💪

Exactly, no comparisons lol, keep building

Good points with the New Steem, I can see that too :) And congrats on the purchase, on your way to a whale ;) All the best to Mexico, mi segundo hogar! :)

This is a fine move from your end, putting your money where your mouth is. This is exactly the altitude we need in this era of Newsteem. Cheers to the great future of Steem.
