I started this two weeks ago and I'm already up around 4-5%, will be following these updates closely!

jfc, I'm glad. 2 years was so unreasonable. Thanks for the correction.

You'll still be able to turn your steempower back into steem, but it will take 2 years to get all of it back out (they split the payment up into 104 parts). It is not very liquid. The pro is you do earn

I would think so as well ... I just don't know very much about ETFs/mutual funds (I have some, but mostly in a buy and hold to follow overall S&P over decades).

How do you choose the mutual funds to use?

I just started this today! But with a much smaller amount of $200 to start

I personally like it because not everyone follows every altcoin - it's WAY easier to read this way (especially now on mobile) instead of a huge page with a wall of text and charts and videos. I feel like

Same question as @psukicksass - am currently 1/5th through the Elliott Waves book and am working on my own practice charts with mixed success. I am also possibly interested in 1 on 1 coaching!

What form are your STEEM holdings in? If it's SP, it will take 2 years (they break it up into 104 parts). If it's STEEM or SBD, you can move them out now and exchange if you want. Having SP gains you interest

Thanks for bringing to my attention - I'll check it out/think about it. I'm doing relatively well in writing "IRL" in terms of recognition and placement, and a problem with online v. literary

And then from there yeah just go into steemit and power up

You can also buy it directly with USD/BTC.

There's also another way besides the one @dlwagner posted (not that he's wrong, just another way). You can also use blocktrades.us and then send btc directly to a user on steemit, and they receive it as

I mean, honestly? Because the smaller users aren't offering me any value. Not saying they don't have value, they just don't offer me any value. There's no reason for me to upvote people for the sole reason

Yeah if I remember right on blocktrades you write @(name) (so I would write @psychoserenity) and then how much BTC you want to send (receive as Steem) and that's it. Downside: right now it says BTC fees

But why would he/she have to? That's literally the opposite of innocent until proven guilty. The rules of steemit isn't, hey, join this community but also you are obligated to defend yourself from any

But why would he? If haejin doesn't know rancho and rancho really is someone random, why would haejin just go to someone random and be like "hey, stop upvoting my posts, other people here don't like

"This bastard child of Reddit with all the luxuries of a Craigslist interface" Agree. I'm new to Steemit and was interested in the payout formula (esp. could be good to freelance writers, considering

But isn't that how Steemit is built (for good or for bad)? Anyone can come in, create an account, buy a $hit ton of STEEM on blocktrades, transfer it over, power up, and start off with a very high upvote?

are you talking about adding STEEM (and then powering up to SP) using USD, or just using what STEEM you have currently?
