I am powering down to enjoy the freedom of liquidity as much as I can and my SP still grows from one withdraw to another.
One of the advantages of liquidity is the ability to buy votes.
I feed the bots and they feed me.
Most of them are scams, but I discover it over time and try to stick with the best ones.
I am also able to trade STEEM/SBD this way and may convert STEEM or SBD for another currency in the future.
