RE: A CHALLENGE FROM @papa-pepper FOR THE WHALES OF STEEMIT
Thinking about this, I would have changed my 'actions' today. I helped 'Fund' a Good Will Project, started by @codydeeds. (Yesterday) I sent today $5 Steem Dollars to him, because as I "promised" I would send him a 5-er' toward the project. He mentioned trying to raise funds through posting, perhaps I could have done better by "funding" the SD in promoting his post. Living and learning here on Steem. Still 'love' this platform!
Ok... so forgive my ignorance @hexdek16 :) but how do you give someone steem - and what's the difference in funding by promoting? (After you live and learn.... you can live and teach me! hehehe)
Giving "Steem" I transfer a 'set' amount (at the time) based on valuation. SD is pegged to the 'US' Dollar, and can be "Burned" in promotions. Steem, to @codydeeds can be "carried", if he uses the SD to "Promote", they get 'Used'. Not transferred.
ahhhhhhh. hmmmmm. well that created more questions than answers hahahaha That's what I get for asking too many questions! LOL (thank you for replying!!!) :) (happy new year!!!)
That could have been a good idea... the world will never know!
Oh but it might, I challenged him to write a 'new' update post and use the $5 SD I sent him to promote it. If it does not pay out, I promised to 2X my original funding of $5 SD to sending him $10 SD. Sometimes good ideas, get a second go around. ;)
That is great incentive!
...but I always remember, this is how I "Started". (Keeps me Humble) - Then again, what a 'Blast' those times were! Would not trade them for the world! (lol)
Nice! You've got to do what you've got to do!
