RE: Steem stigma from outsiders
I would never knock down someone because they powered down, even before I descended back to plankton from minnow, I always confronted the implicit sentiment of "they're devaluing the currency". I too live way below the poverty line but I have no room to complain, we don't pay rent and the only bills we have are electric and cellphone while we feed our two dogs raw chicken and rice with vegetables. I don't have any resignation for my power down either, yeah that money helped us but even if someone spends it all on meth as long as they are happy and don't hurt anyone I don't have a problem with their earnings going to what makes them happy.

I totally understand when people have to do it; I just meant that I was able to still get that much benefit without having to go to that measure and still build my account too. Like, that's how much potential there is here!
I didn't mean to sound confrontational at all, only to add onto what you said, take it a step further so to speak and meant to say that you won't find me saying that Steem isn't monumentally more valuable than almost any other crypto out there even with all its flaws, and its potential is barely tapped IMO.

Oh, totally cool, I just wanted to make sure you didn't think I was shaming people who have had to power down. We're good. :)
