The Big Steem Drop, Was It Good For Your Growth Rate?
We did a test 39 days ago to see if the price of steem coming down was good Steem Coming Down Is Good (lets do an experiment to see) - Easy Experiment
In that post I asked for a snapshot of your steemd stats:
#1 Tell us how many SP you have right now
#2 Tell us how long you have been on the platform
Now we look at the results!
Please re-answer the 2 questions above!

I have seen a big difference with the price of steem coming down, and then going back up... This account has really rocked with the move up... Yes we picked up some SP when it was lower, but we really picked up even more as it went higher! That's great as this is a membership service and it will help our members with leasing more steem power as we get bigger again!
The force is with you! You got a 16.67% upvote from @steemyoda courtesy of @unleashpower!
You got a 33.33% upvote from @payforplay! Please consider delegating steem power to @payforplay. We are currently sharing 100% of our profits with our delegators. That's correct, 100%! It doesn't get better than that. It is essentially running your own bid bot without doing any of the work. Steem power can be delegated here: https://steembottracker.com/delegation.html

So I've been here 134 days and have 169 SP; before 95 days/97 SP.
Regardless of what the numbers say, and regardless of any extenuating circumstances like getting curied, I cannot believe it's only been 134 days...it feels like a lifetime...in a good way, not like in my first marriage way haha
And as an aside, I came to this post to find I'd already upvoted you, but I don't have you as a fan on steemauto so is it because of friendsofgondor? I've noticed it before but keep forgetting to ask. And if that's the case, I need to unvote and revote to give you the deserved voting percentage buddy :)
It wouldn't be friendsofgondor because that account only upvotes stewardsofgondor... My guess is it was helpie's trail or maybe qurator...
For your numbers they have grown:
from roughly 1 SP per day
to 72 SP in 39 days which is a rate of almost 2 per day... Your growth rate almost doubled.
And yes it does seem both long and short in time... sometimes it seems like I'm a newbie and other times I feel really old... The good thing is we are almost the same age so it doesn't matter to us! ;)
haha it's exactly like real life ! Some days I feel like a newbie and others, really old :)
We are almost the same age, so it doesn't make any difference at all!
lol... yes in both steemit life and in real life, we are almost the same! Maybe that's why "great minds think alike".

I agree that it feels like it has been a lot longer. 6 months ago I didn't know what a Steemit was and know I'm almost to minnow level. It's crazy. Too bad it's not as simple as posting my account for sale to get $1,700. That would be really cool... although I wouldn't have the account anymore, so that would be a downside.
It is crazy. Four and a half months ago, I'd never heard of steemit and the idea of cryptocurrency was a grey area in my peripheral vision! There's something that says to 'become a habit', you have to do something for a month or six weeks I think, so when you 'do' something like steemit every day for 4-6 months, it really does become a part of you. Although I really do believe it's the relationships that keep us here. The guy who introduced Brian and I to steemit was really in it for the money (quick rich scheme...the big dummy;) and he hasn't been on for a few months now. Your $1,700 would be gone long before these relationships are ;) It also makes me wonder, if I started another account now, knowing what I know, would it be any different? could you duplicate this journey? I don't think so. Maybe I'd meet other people?
Just rambling now, but as I typed this, I really began to imagine re-doing it all. I won't. But I wondered what it would be like. I know that @simplymike did and funny enough, I found notes from when I first started on here, with names of people who I wanted to re-visit their posts regularly, and she was one of them, but it was her old name @mike-with-a-crazy-long-number after it. So it goes to show you that her authentic self came through with both names...even though I thought she was a guy for a long time haha
...and you'd have to come up with another name ;)
I agree, it's the people that keep me here. I like the friendships I've made here, so it's fun to check in and see how people are doing. That's strange that the person who referred you was gone so quickly. I never even found out how you get referred. Yes, the money would be spent quickly. It seems that's the way of things, especially since I'm working on my silver collection. That would be 85 ounces of sweet silvery goodness before you could say, "boo!"
You could probably duplicate it to a certain extent. Especially if you knew where to start. I think part of the reason people see success is that they form friendships with people and then mutually upvote each other and see those votes grow. That's how it's supposed to work. I think if you could do well to have a cryptocurrency tied to a platform like this, but the only way to get the currency would be by being on the platform, at least for a few years. That way the people there are ones who really want to see it grow. I don't really like upvoting people who are taking the money and running. It feels better to upvote someone who is investing that value back into the platform and helping others grow. Then you could release it after 3 years and see what happened. The incipient demand might cause the price to skyrocket... provided there was enough usage of the coin and platform.
I would have to come up with another non-name if I started a new account. Ha!
As a big fan of experiments, I'm sad I missed this! Looking forward to the responses from the folks listed above and thanks to @davemccoy for running this!
Don't worry, I will be doing it again in about a week... Keep a lookout for it! ;)
Good copy! I'm likely to be traveling, but will look for it!
When did this happen? I'm so sorry I'm not part of the experiment.
It was 39 days ago @melvadg... But don't worry, we will be doing another one in a week... Keep your eyes open! ;)
I'm sure I'll be looking forward to the new round. Happy day.
I don’t think I grew much @davemccoy. A lot of my upvotes went to comments. I guess I wouldn’t mind finding out where I stand now...if someone would like to pull my stats for me again. 🤩😁
j/k - will pull my own this time. Told ya it didn’t grew much!
Then: 305 SP 72 Days
Now: 379 SP 111 Days
you have to factor out the SP you bought from the beginning... otherwise
you can't get a realistic view.
Yes but you’re only looking at growth from the 305 SP til today right? That’s a growth of 74 SP in 39 days. I didn’t buy any Steem in this time period.
Not very good growth. I should use my upvotes more on posts than comments.
omgosh... that is 74 SP in 39 days.... in order to compare it to your other months, you need to back out what you invested... just tell me how much of the 305 is bought and how much was organic, then I can show you how they compare.
and as far as curation, yes... you will never earn much if you are just voting comments... especially if you are voting 0.02 or less.
I wrote a post to NOT upvote 0.02 or less! 😝
I have to dig around for the numbers. Maybe I’ll get that to you..one day at the rate I’m taking to reply back. Plus you know I hate math.
you are right... only $0.03 or higher works to get them paid... Now if you would just tell us how much steem you bought then you will be a perfect example of someone whos growth rate took off. I already have an idea, but you need to divulge that info! And fyi, you will just subtract that to find out how much you organically grew in your first 72 days
You’re lucky the data was around. 279 STEEM invested, all bought prior to 3/19. So...
26 SP only in 72 days vs.
74 SP in 36 days
so there you go, now your rate of growth seems a little better :) ... like a five-fold or 5x growth rate
ps... and you can do math when you want to ;)
Yeah... I'd say 79 SP in 39 days is pretty good, seeing as I only have 82 SP, and I've been here over 100 days!! So.. Yeah lol
My point exactly @gjones15 and on top of that it grew a ton compared to her own rate of growth.

2 posts a week girl, Commit yourself to 2 posts a week at least, You can write them up over a couple of days in a notebook or other recording method, and assemble them over a shorter period of time when you find a spare hour,
If only I have spare time @jan23com! I’m lucky to write one post a week.
280SP & 17 🌛s
thanks for the updated number @amariespeaks... would you say in the last 39 days you spent the same amount of time on the platform (or more/less).. Also did you give away many of your sbd's or steem at an increasing rate that before?
@amariespeaks is always giving away her SBDs. She is too too sweet.
I know... that's why I asked... It kinda hurts her growth rate ;)
LOL yesss but I can't help it when I see a good cause :-D plus I haven't been posting as much as usual
@davemccoy I have definitely spent less time than usual on Steemit over the last month and I did give away steem and sbd.. I've lost count lol but maybe around 15sbd or more...? I think, but only like 2 steem. LOL so yes, I'm definitely behind on the growth and retaining curve ;-)
Yes we need to throw out your scores because you have been tied up and giving it away.... Once you settle in though, I would like to show you on the next dip how to get it higher!
I wouldn't say you are behind on growth though, that is just a function of being able to be here... Everyday you get a little bigger (whether here or not) because your friends keep growing... That's how it works! :)
lol yeah maybe another time I can be a better example 👌 I'm trying to get back on my daily posting habit.
This sounds like an interesting experiment. Let us know how the price of STEEM +/- impacts performance!
yes exactly @dominicbasulto! We will be starting up a new contest in about a week, so keep your eyes open and you can be a part of that one as well! :)
13.67 SP
and Im really wishing i had bought some at $2 - #procrastinator
haha... I understand... :)
ok you went from 15 SP 113 Days to 13.67 SP ... something must be a mistake. It shows you lost SP. The only way for that to happen is if you sold any or "powered down"... Did you do either of those?
actually it says 13.627 SP (+1.388 SP)
i have not sold or powered down that i now of! but i know very little!
You're doing good! And if you have any questions, feel free to ask... We will all help if we can! :)
Thanks! Im here for the long haul. Two questions now: 1) why is staying at 15 doing good? and 2) what is the best MOO for acquiring Steem now? The process with the least friction? And which Steem? there seems to be more than one currency.
The best way in my opinion is through comments on authors post... The more the better. Make them genuine and just be yourself and show your personality. Like this comment to me, it is a good comment because you are asking me for help and everyone always wants to help you here, plus I can tell you are trying too.
As for the difference between Steem and steem dollars and SP.... yes there are 3 different terms... The main way to look at it is this:
SP is steem (but invested in the system so it is locked up for 13 weeks)
so really there is just steem and steem dollars (SBD)... each trade separately. But both are worth money. You get both as an author. Usually more SBD that SP....
What most people do early is to convert their sbds to steem and then "power them up" to SP... it has the benefit of growing your account a bit faster. Later, you will use your SBDs to buy votes through the bots or join memberships services. Try to get to 30 SP and then let me know and I will go over the other options for you.
Thanks so much for taking the time here to explain it that way. I think I just got a lot closer to understanding! If you get the chance to answer (2) I am ready to buy into Steem as an investment and would just like to have the least amount of memberships and hops to make to do that!
I'm not sure I understand what you mean about having the least amount of memberships... If you can explain I will be happy to give you more of my opinions and/or help!

:) Yes, so that's 15 SP total. The SP in parenthesis stands for SP "delegated" to you (which was done by steemit itself when you opened your account) .
thanks for the assist @gjones15 :)
No prob, Dave ;) I know you said @beeyou likes to give you a hard time, so... ;)))
haha... yes... she definitely does :P
