Congrats everyone, we waited out the hard times and we won!
STEEM just broke the 3 dollar mark for the first time since July 26, 2016:
It has pulled back a little: 2.80 at the time of writing, but looks the goods for a sustained move higher!
Times were tough for a while there when it was below a dollar, but we waited out and we won. I'm still on a powerdown of 150 STEEM a week, but I'll be buying STEEM with my SBD rewards too, so should be able to keep my SP static, or maybe even grow it!
This is such a great platform. My writing work goes very quiet over Christmas as the traditional finance world all go on holiday, but through my powerdown, I'm guaranteed 150 STEEM a week in income regardless - that is truly a luxury for a freelancer and that 150 STEEM is now worth ~$450 USD a week!
Congratulations to everyone who had the foresight to join this great community and stuck it out through the hard times - we are officially #winning!
PS Shout out to the homie @buzzbeergeek for the heads up on this break too - if you love your beer you should definitely give this man a follow - major dude!
