RE: Let's turn the Steem Price around
Great post (re-steemed).
Unfortunatelly for most Venezuelan users, keeping steem or powering up is not an option. Many of us came here looking for an additional source of income. I have manage to increase my SP with tons of hours dedicated to commenting and posting, but I cannot always do that (electricity, internet, credit on phone, simple enthusiasm sometimes fails us). It has been too slow a process, considering the number of post and how long I've been here and it has been a process with tons of disappointments.
There are many big accounts that could be making a big difference if they upvoted more frequently the tons of plankton accounts that keep struggling to remain here.
They keep upvoting the same accounts that are already solidly established. Many users give up afte months of posting without getting a single SBD in rewards.
Do people have to beg for those big upvotes?
More upvoted to small accounts means that their users will engage more and will recruit more steemians. More upvotes to small accounts means that those accounts will grow and will power up and will be able to delegate SP and buy STEEM.
I felt the same as you when I joined first. It took time and dedication to get upvotes and regular followers for my account. It's much easier to be seen now with the different tribes to sort out the content that interests us.
I read a very interesting article lately about how it takes a couple of years and hundreds of posts to gain a following on any social media site. It is the same anywhere that you have to build a reputation but it can be done. I would recommend not selling if possible as this is all a new eco system and we are looking 3 - 5 years down the line before it get developed and the price gets to a steady place. Everything that you see are the building blocks for what this place will be eventually. It's coming together but will take time. I just want to be in the right position with the biggest SP when we do get there.
Thank you very much for your comment. I've been on steem for almost 1.5 years and it has never been that easy to buy cheap steem and to power up. I see it as an opportunity and I try to power up as much as possible.
Hi @hlezama,
Thanks for your interesting comment. I totally agree with you that we are not all in the same situation. I believe however that we should all be aware that the higher the steem prices, the more we all profit from it. If we all can power up as much as we can afford, I think we all profit in the long term.
Best regards,
Achim
