Learning how to blog, and build networks and communities is a great reason to keep going. Before I started here, I had never even considered blogging... ever. Predicting prices and how the markets will move is beyond me also, I just know that this crypto ecosystem feels like the future, it feels like we are moving forward, ahead of the game so to speak.

Thanks for your very thoughtful entry.

Very nice post, It certainly is a better option here than other sites. Getting paid to share our knowledge or opinions is nice :)

thanks a lot!

I have also found that since joining here, I have spent far less time (almost none) on other social media sites. As you say, the click bait aspect is one I certainly don't miss. Hopefully this slump will turn around soon, and we can see where the future is headed here.

Thanks for joining in my contest.

It has been a common theme through many of the entries in this contest that steeming is about more than the money. The knowledge, the community and the interesting content is definitely worth being here for, STEEM payouts or not. Thank you for entering and best of luck.

Nice entry, thank you for joining in. 1 tiny suggestion, please don't take offense, you should note the source of the picture you use.

Good luck for the draw.

Excellent, you are now in the draw. You are very right, there are many forward thinking and progressive people on here. We are a part of the future.

Thanks, you are definitely not too late to enter. Will accept entries up to post payout. Your post is inspiring. The plan that your STEEM account is your savings plan for your 5 month old baby, that is an awesome motivation to keep steeming. Hopefully, as your accounts SP grows over time, you will have something to help your family have a better life. Congratulations, a most worthy motivation.

Thank you so much. I hope that my story will help to motivate other too.

Thanks for entering, more shares in SBI is always better. You are right, even at these lower STEEM prices, the rewards here are still better than on most other sites. Unless you get millions of views on Youtube, there isn't a lot of other options allowing for earning anything much. Good luck for the draw which will happen in a bit over 24 hours from now.

You are right. Thanx ritxi

Hope this contest still applies.

Thanks for your entry @ashikstd. I think hope is what is keeping most of us going at the moment. We are looking at the price of STEEM continuing to slide and wondering when the turnaround will kick in. Hopefully soon, and we can watch STEEM head in the right direction.

yeah i'm hoping that time would come sooner.

My goals on Steemit

Great initiative, I think this can motivate a lot of people for keep writing.

Hi, it is a very good place to work on your English. As for your payouts dropping, I think most people are having the same thing, as STEEM drops and SBD stops, we all have to adjust.

Thanks for entering my contest.
