The price was 1.58 when your upvote worth (UpW) was 0.40, but because of the drop to 1.25 and your SP amount, your upvote worth got a little lower, spend your time powering up as you are doing i think is a good move, the greater SP the better, that will counterbalance the price drop and your UpW will stand almost the equable.
Thank you very much for the comparison. I actually forgot that the price was up at 1.58 when I was at 0.40 so that makes perfect sense. I'm going to continue to power up because of this. Thanks for this friend.
