RE: On the 13 Weeks Steem Power Down Period: Why the Status quo Should Remain

in #newsteem5 years ago

One possible way to personally "SHORTEN" the withdrawal time is to initiate a Power Down of a larger amount than you ultimately wish to withdraw. (That is, of course, if you have a bit of excess SP in the first place.)

Say, if you have 2,000 SP, but want to power down 1,000. What you do is initiate a 2,000-SP power down. Within 6-7 weeks, you will have powered down your desired 1,000.

Then, just cancel the power down, and it will stop. Mission accomplished.

I never considered this fine and clever tips. Thanks for sharing it, as you rightly say - this only concerns those with large stake. Also, thanks for stopping by and do not dial the power down button now. Cheers!

You could make a post about this tactic. Short, concise, and quite helpful.

Very true but that might hammer your rep.

True, it might, but there's no reason that it should. As long as this strategy is not overused or abused, I don't see any harm in employing it when and if necessary.
