Ah, forgive me, still trying to figure out what it all means. All what I own (not much) is in SP, though I'm not fully sure how it gets spent?

This is one of the big issues with the platform: The basics are exceedingly hard to understand.

Basically, Steam Power is just a way of holding Steem, the main token, for a long term. You cannot freely withdraw or transfer SP; instead, you have to power down, which is a process where the sp converts to steem over a period of 3 months.

SP allows the votes that you give out to be worth more; that's the main benefit, I suppose.

It's cool that your post was so successful! I do think that high quality content will eventually get noticed here. Did you do anything to promote it?

Hey, that’s very helpful, thanks, for walking me through it. I’m a little clueless when it comes to money & tech, but that made sense.

I do believe quality/talent rises to the surface - like a cork in water, my mentor used to say - but it takes time. I did not promote my post in any way, but was lucky Curie picked it up. Like the real world, it helps in the virtual to know who is who I guess.

Ocd is another curator worth checking out.
