Promoting a 4 week Power Down for #Steem
Advantages on a 4 week Power Down for #Steem
I was recently asked for my opinion on the 4 week Power Down for #Steem and I thought I would share with you what I think.
The obvious one is that it will allow those wanting to Power Down their #Steem in a shorter period of time.
As a long term Investor in #Steem for me it doesn't really matter whether it is 4 weeks or 13 weeks, but someone looking to invest in #Steem short term to take advantage of #Steem with a longer 13 week Power Down may have been put off slightly in the past.
However, now having a shorter 4 week Power Down will certainly attract more Inward Investment to #Steem for those looking for a short term access to the #Steem Protocol and all it's features for their Projects.
As more people wake up to what #Steem really is and use #Steem as a Global Voting and Rewards Distribution System, a 4 week Power Down period suddenly makes #Steem a very attractive investment proposition.
Without having to "lock in" their Investment for 13 weeks, Investors can now access the full power of the #Steem Protocol and only have to wait 4 weeks to unlock.
This is a massive selling point and is something that I am really looking forward to start promoting over the next few months.
Thanks again for reading.

Majority of people use the power down option due to high profit or meeting any emergency situation where they need money. In both cases it gives clear advantage. I hope it will help to bring more investment on this platform.
I couldn't agree more, sure there will always be some people who will need a shorter Power Down to meet emergency needs, but that's not what I am talking about.
I am talking about Projects, Businesses and Investors staking a short term investment to reward those that help develop their Projects and / or Products.
We would only need x100 each purchasing 1 million #Steem to direct rewards to those that bring value to their Projects.
100 million #Steem is circa 30% of the total supply and my gut feeling is it would be very difficult for them to be obtained on the Open Market.
Certainly not at ~$0.20.!!
I think the penny will soon drop that #Steem is 1% a Blogging Tool and 99% an Investment Tool.

I wish so. 99% investment will be great for steem to achieve top position in coin market. Let's hope for the best @stephenkendal
Agree, I hope this will be a new beginning of coming some investors
Going to 4 weeks does not affect me as i am not powering down, but hey 4 weeks like you say could be good for investors!
Remember when we had a power down period of 104 weeks!
I think so.
Let's see what the next few months bring.
