RE: How to become a Dolphin WITHOUT buying any STEEM?
So true.
And you know as well as I do that money follows money on here. I've started to pick up all sorts of occassional votes from 10-30K accounts recently. I'm 100% convinced many of them wouldn't vote me if I wasn't their peer.
I'm sure there's some of way of verifying this statistically. Project for @abh12345.
Happy May Day - Easy shit post today for us today coming up on 'Power up Day'. That's a guaranteed 8 STU for you and 3 STU for me....
Oh look those figures broadly correspond to our SP!
In other words... I agree... go buy some steem people.

There's a lot of talk about supporting Minnows and RedFish, but we rarely see Dolphin posts. How about 'support the Orca's?'
Yes, they can support themselves and don't need it, we already know that, but I'm always the one to rock the boat with something a little different.
There's so few Dolphin's and we really need more. Should I say work hard and you will get there? It's not gonna happen.. not now.
Oh and I do like your content btw!

Oh I agree - there are plenty people that should be risking a bit more if you ask me!
And at £40 for 200 steem - that's a bargain.
I'm on for 15K in the near future, but I'm powering up my alt-account instead now.

Been meaning to ask, why are you powering up the alt? Any specific thinking behind that?
It's because I want to funnel all my steem through @ocdb and it makes sense to have it powered up temporarily so I can use it while sitting on the exchange, I'll gradually power that down to feed @ocdb on here.
As i'm sure you've noticed, you can burn through a few hundred steem a month easily with @ocdb.
If I have the money just sitting in my steem wallet, I'll just keep buying stupid chests on nextcolony, and I've thrown enough money at that game.
that is a very good point and this way you can even earn a bit more along the way... might also do that
Money comes to money, I have heard in the past. Fair to say that it is mostly the case here. Imagine if everyone self-voted 10x a day :)
@tarazkp asked me recently how many accounts who have earned enough in SP to be a certain size and are still at that level, so I think I'll pad a #spud post out with some numbers today.
I believe I supported both of you prior to dolphin level, partly because you write interesting stuff, partly because you are Brits, and partly because you seemed to want to grow a stake here. Having now met you both and looking at your accounts, I'm glad to done so.
Supporting peers a solid growth strategy these days, dare I say more important than content?
You were a little intimidating to me when I first noticed you here. A community leader, so should I make the effort to wave 'hello' being this small fish? But thanks, for the comment.. and the early support.
I don't see myself as a community leader or intimidating, but I guess it's not what i see is it :)
Quite an apt post for #spud day this one. I agree it is becoming increasingly tougher to reach 5k SP via author rewards as time passes. In the beginning you could do this with your intro post!
Well you are (a community leader), as the the other bit.. well look at the number of comments you get on your posts.. we all have finite time and I'm not one to wave and say 'pick me'..., maybe I chose the wrong word..
Yes those votes helped a lot back when starting out, as did the engagement leagued more generally, so cheers!
I should really find more smaller accounts to support. Might make it a May focus.
Of course only those with content I like, but there isn't too much of that about.
You do get it back if they hang around.
There's also smething in supporting people who are prepared to risk FIAT - and wout people buying it our FIAT investments are going south!
