I have powered up from 1,000 to 10,000 SP in these dumps but I don't recommend anyone to follow. It is a dangerous game because unless you have a $1,000,000 to power up a person wouldn't be able to make a big enough move to influence witness votes and all that.

The witness situation is a clear joke and there is no point for qualified people to attempt to run them on this chain. We need vote decay and a rotational mechanism that would drop witnesses who have been in the top 20 for 6 months straight to being placed below 40 for six months before they can move back up.

This won't happen. There are about 50 people making good money on this chain and everyone else is chasing a carrot.

I'm chasing the carrot one more time and trying to get my average low enough and hope that STEEM doesn't keep slipping down CoinMarketCap like it has since July 2016 when I showed up here.
