As many of you have seen over the past few months I had a pretty big delegation of 15.000. I had this from blocktrades@blocktrades and I payed for it. At this moment I need to pay approximately 530 STEEM to keep it which is no longer worth it. At the current rates I would be loosing nearly 100 STEEM a month for keeping it up. And that means I would only be upvoting myself.

Back in the day blocktrades@blocktrades upped the price on us without a notice. Making us paying more. But now that prices dropped (almost double of when they whent up) they are not budging at all. Keeping strong on there way to high prices.

There service was kind of ok. Unless you had specific questions on there price rise without a notice or if there would be a price drop now that prices whent down. Then the explanation came back in the same context. As long as we are making more money we don’t care.

So this is the end of my 15k delegation. I might be searching for someone threw minnowbooster@minnowbooster delegation service but not to shure yet if it is profitable. There is no logic in getting delegation to loose money on it. So if any whale reads this and feels like making a deal contact me and we can talk.

See you on the steem universe 😊

With 15.000 steem power and 95% voting power I would currently upvote for 2.35 STU
I can aproximatly upvote 10 times a day so a total of 23.5 STU
I loose 25% in curation 5.875 (lets round it to 5.8 for easyer math)
So a average of 17.7 STU a day times 30 = 531 STU a month
531 / 2 (half value in steem and other half in sbd) 265.5
265.5 / Current steem price 2.47 = 107.489 lets round it to 107.5 STEEM
265.5 SBD wich currently has a 1/1 ratio in conversion = 265.5 STEEM
A total of 373 STEEM gain out of 530 investment = A LOSS OF 157 STEEM

Small update!
