Welcome to the 89th weekly installment of my series on Steem income and growth!
Income on the Steem blockchain is generated by "investment" (the more currency you have, the more you earn) and by "work" (earning currency by contributing content that adds value). All my crypto holdings are in the STEEM currency. Now I'm working to earn more, by uploading unique valuable content to the blockchain.
Considering income from accounts that my wife @MediKatie and I own, and group projects using our funds (currently

In the last while, it has been even harder than usual to get upvotes in the topics I post often in (cannabis and economy/crypto). I see huge payouts in these categories all the time, but at times it feels I'm invisible, or that I didn't bribe the right insiders. I can't find anyone putting out as much high-quality content as I do, but I'm one of the lowest-paid content-creators around. One issue is probably that I don't get along with the "NewSteem" cult and I'm not part of their inner voting circle.
Aside from that, HF21's rules continue to make it tough for content-creators to bring in any rewards. The ongoing bear market for STEEM continues to keep the blockchain quiet, which means there's less money to go around. I also bought a few more tokens (a long term play) from my income this week. And I've pulled back from 3Speak in favour of BitChute, so I'm not getting income that way anymore. All told, my growth was anemic again this week.
Note: As mentioned before, MediKatie and I are phasing out use of all our team accounts except GirlsofGreen. Another was dropped from the tally this week, and the last will be dropped next week. They have almost no SP and were barely noticed anyway.
This post will probably put me over the line to 67 reputation (thank you), which makes me the 2100th most reputable Steemian. Of course, that can all change in an instant if a whale comes along and poops on me a few times, but luckily this blockchain is populated (mostly) by decent people!
Speaking of quality people, do you know my brother Disl Automatic? He's a revolutionary, conscious rapper, vegan and liberty activist, who puts out incredible music on digital platforms and his website GetBIGonem. His latest mixtape REVOLUTION just dropped, with 42 masterpieces of hip hop, FREE. Also for free download are 34 additional tracks which were previously released. Seriously some of the best music you've never heard! You'll be upset it took until now for you to find out about it, it's that good.
If you're on Flote, click here to check out my post about getting Disl involved in cryptos (by having him sign up for Flote)! Click the album cover below to head to Disl's site for the free mixtake and bonux tracks.
