Last month I bought a 2000 SP delegation from @blocktrades to increase my voting power to use on other people's posts. I also vowed not to upvote myself any longer, and I have stuck to that, preferring to reward other minnows instead and to boost my @Muxxybot account, allowing it's votes higher worth on curated posts.
Together with my earned SP and a couple of generous delegations from elsewhere, I was extremely happy to see my 100% upvote go beyond $2 last week.
Alas, all good things must come to and end. I received an wallet message from @blocktrades yesterday informing me that my delegation is due to run out soon, but I can extend it for a further 30 days to the tune of 43.509 STEEM or 46.598 SBD at current prices. I have decided not to, and to instead use my earned funds to organically grow my account worth and voting power.
It has been suggested to me to run my delegated power down on my own posts before it runs out. I won't be doing this - I made a vow and I am not about to backtrack on it now.
Unfortunately this does mean my votes will carry half of their previous value going forward. I hope those I support understand this.
