RE: Finally Powering Down my Steem. Enough is Enough!
Yeah same here bro. Been inactive the last 5months mainly because I didn't see any point in investing so much time into Steemit since it won't get a man anywhere in the current state. Again same thing, broken promises such as SMT's.
I have kept my steem at 8k though and just been selling my votes gaining my passive income and been selling a bit here and there and the price swings up and down. I'm using the system to my own advantage now like everyone else because fuck it. :) They made the system based on bots and voteselling so I'm just gonna do that if that's how the witnesses wants it. I cannot just like you be bothered to fight it anymore.
It's nice however, coming back to my wallet from time to time and see I suddenly have a bunch of sbd and steem laying there to be sold. So maybe try that instead? As you say yourself, the value of steem right now is laughable and I think 99% of people of lost a lot by now. so maybe don't go full on quit and just start put your time and energy elsewhere and put your votes to sell on smartsteem and cash out what you sell? Of
Just a suggestion to not make it feel too sour everything. Hopes everything is well otherwise for you though! Cheers mate!

Hey! @holm my man. How's it going, brother, long time no see.
I don't plan to power down all of my Steem; only about half. I was hoping to try to do some fancy trading and get some of my money back. Yeah, it's great getting that cash passively. My big issue is that although my post says "$5" or something, by the time I cash out it will be more like 2 cents.
And I get it. The alt market is taking a dive. But Steem shouldn't be dropping at a faster rate than a lot of the market. I blame that on shitty management.
I'm still trying to work out in my head what I'd like to do about all of this. I'm just sick of watching my funds drain!
If you have enough fiat left, I'd buy me a few Bitcoins. They will go up anyway. And trade with 10-20% of them. Forget about this time-sink called Steemit and move on.
