One of the main problem Steemit facing is the growth of members due to difficulty to register new account. Thus I tried various methods to create account like spending 6 STEEM to create a new account and also delegation method to create new account. During the testing process, I did power down on different Steem Power account and I notice there is a wrong error message when power down less than 2 SP.

Steps:

  1. Go Steemit.com

  2. Click the Profile Picture at Top Right and then Click "Wallet"

Expected Result:
Based on Steemd.com, the account creation fee is 0.2 STEEM which mean a user can power down when they have 2SP in their account. Thus, the Correct Error Message should be "Unable to power down (ERROR: Account required 10x the account creation fee in Steem Power (approximately 2SP) before it can power down.)"

Actual Result:
Wrong Error Message when Power Down 0.2SP. Error Shown "Unable to power down (ERROR: Account required 10x the account creation fee in Steem Power (approximately 300SP) before it can power down.)"

The screenshot below shown a user can power down when they have 6 SP.
