RE: Why You Should Stick Around and Not Power Down
So for me, I've converted every single SBD I've ever earned on Steemit into Steem and then powered up into Steem power. I agree that powering down and not reinvesting the amount you power down is effectively "cheating" your supporters. However, if you're augmenting their investment in you and reinvesting that extra bit you are able to earn, then isn't it effectively proving how much you value their support?
If you're able to "organically" increase your influence on Steemit and share that increased influence with your supporters, is that not the best of both worlds?
I take this a little personally, although I probably shouldn't? since it's an action that I'm currently doing (powering down while Steem is valued higher than I believe it will sustain in order to profit and reinvest fully back into Steemit).
Probably you know some others who are powering down and leaving with the recent increase in value of Steem/SBDs? If so, I'm sorry for them and their supporters. Hopefully their power down is only temporary and they come back stronger and more supportive than ever! ☺️
I've seen a lot of people who powered down and left, probably back when steem was low. Nothing personal lol. I believe in you and that you will share the love. 😊
Yeah, powering down because you lose faith in the Steemit platform (or Steem) before it even really gets a chance to grow (like it is now), seems silly to me. I bet they're all kicking themselves for cashing out so early!
We minnows are going to take over the world!! =D
I'll definitely not be going too far away .. I'm just hoping that I can get some Steem out before the price drops too far =/ .. That way it's worth more when I buy back in! =D
And I'll be happily sharing the added value with all of my friends on here! (P.S. that includes you)
Gosh, I feel happy I am included in your steemit friends. 😊
Thanks! I support your decision.
