Thanks for the support @reko

As for my referral link for Bitconnect, I did take it down for now. I don't want to cause anyone grief, I don't want anyone to lose anything, and I definitely don't want to make Steemit look bad. So since at this point Bitconnect is still not 100% verified or vetted, I will leave it out.
But things are subject to change and I just might put it back if I see that I and others are receiving our initial seed money while still receiving our accrued interest payment. This still won't confirm whether Bitconnect is a ponzi or not but at least this will show to me and others that it meets its obligations. We shall see.

full steem ahead!

ps. if you are interested @reko let me know and I can send you my referral link. Thanks
