AMA (Ask Me Anything) With Ned

_{Click on image to visit the post.}

SteemFest³ officially opens in 10 days. If you're going, you should already be packed and ready.

If you're one of the concerned Steemians who want Steem to succeed, this is your chance to ask @Ned anything. Answers are not guaranteed so write your questions as comments. Bring your friends and supporters to rally behind a question or questions of utmost importance.

It wouldn't hurt to say a few positive things. So don't be shy on highlighting what works on Steem. Would you like a format on writing your question?

How about: compliment - problem statement - suggestion - what do you think and what would you do Ned?

How A Spider Turned Dolphin

Congratulations to @WaPhilip for reaching dolphinhood through investing.

We encourage you read his latest post on how he accomplished this feat. Just like you and I, he started a minnow and stayed on the platform. We all get discouraged with abuse we see from co-minnows and whales, but these are not controlling factors to leave.

So from #spiderblogger to dolphin blogger, it is possible. Cut habits similar to a leaky faucet, save up and power up.

Witness Corner: Fyrst's Power-Down Duration Proposal

@Fyrstikken popularized the shitcoin song. But this viking is also a businessman.

If we want investors, we need to make STEEM a juicy-investment potential. The 13-week powerdown is a turn-off for investors. It's worse than Coinbase's 7-day hold on your funds.

Check out Fyrst's post, chime in and get this proposal some much needed boost if you're on board.

Witnesses and regular Steemians are all for it and you can see why if you're one of the investors.
