RE: Allow a 100% SP vote: the best voting problem solution.
I am still not fully sure how Steem works haha. So it's bad to upvote myself if I just started? I am no longer doing that. Reading your article got me slightly more confused. Sorry haha.
Still trying to understand and navigate through everything...haha
I think you should use your SP however you like.. and we need a system that places minimal restrictions on how it is used.
Ok, but I have to constantly power myself up? I thought there was only an option to power down? Haha, I'm confused by this part...
If you power up your STEEM to STEEM POWER, it takes 3 months divest it back into liquid STEEM.
It is unnecessary to have 3 different currencies {SBD, STEEM, STEEMPOWER}, but that is the system that is in place.
Somehow, you have just confused me even more! Haha.
I just bought some Steem coins with my Steem dollars. So, I can then make the Steem coins to STEEM POWER?
Edit: OK, so I just found the part with Steem Power. But when I power up, I will still keep those coins or do I lose them?
They are locked into steem power. It takes 3 months to unlock them completely.
Steem Power = Larger up-votes.
Steem=Liquid Currency (does not effect voting)
SBD= currency pegged to $1 USD.
I still need to learn how the peg is implemented.. but i think it is similar to how it is done in blockshares.
Ok, so after 3 months I can get those Steem back? I guess I would have to power up again to continue my larger upvotes?
Ok I think I am getting it haha. I just got 5.5 Steem with my SBD, so all the terms are confusing..
