Thanks for that @silvertop I am sure @definethedollar will appreciate it.

No, payment to members continues with another sequence of power down. Power down takes 13 weeks, the one we're currently running was for about 500 SP that give about 38+ Steem weekly.

We have grown our SP by leasing more SP which means the next PD will see us doing around 600 SP which should give about 45 Steem weekly.

It goes that way, the more we grow, the more we earn. The important thing is that our own SP keeps growing at the end of each sequence.

Thanks for your question.
