This is absolutely the time to invest in yourself and your personal brand; whether that's competing in steemmonsters tournaments, supporting newcomers, commenting insightfully on posts, powering up or even buying in with fiat.

Definitely is the time to invest in yourself. I think we often look at it from an 'investing in the platform' perspective but what it really becomes is securing our position, securing our stake in a place where we are able to dictate how it is used. That is very important in my opinion.
