Vlog 445: How much Steempower is enough?

avatar
(Edited)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


I, unfortunately, had to cancel my show Crypto Talk Monday. Time constraint prevents them from doing them consistently. I had a lot of fun making the shows and I hope everyone enjoyed them for as long as they lasted.

In this vlog today I talk about how much Steempower is enough.

I talk about my own investment and what I want to do with it.

Currently, I use it to curate and in Dlease but I have a bigger vision for it.

Manual curation is going well with an efficiency of about 64% but it does take a lot of time, especially compared to Dlease which takes no time but is ROI wise the same.

As you can see I don't self vote anymore and I have no circle which is a very peace of mind decision.

I can just post whatever I want and let #newsteem take care of it.

I talk about all these things and more in a fairly long vlog of 18min.

That's a really great question. I am thinking about that all the time with tribes. I recently asked one guy who was asking people to stake everything, ''how much sport talk we need to tell us that's enough to start earning ?''. I think the steem power is not that important if we do things correctly, follow the right people, join the right communities and respect the rules. So, as content creators steem power is not that important, but for investors it's good to have more and more to earn from curation. About the price, we shouldn't care about that. I think the value steem is bringing to the world is huge. I'm almost 100% sure that the price will go higher, maybe not now, but think of it after a few years from now. Imagine if even steem will go $1, how much you will earn from that. About creating business on steem is really great, there are a lot of opportunities here. Sometimes the return comes not only in form of ROI, but in more support to people who are still excited about steem. I think steem is not only for people to invest and expect rewards, they should also create and be close to the community and promote it. Steem is alive and we should also be active on it, what makes it even better. Keep powering up and I hope to see you supporting communities. 1 million steem power is more than enough for an individual I think.

It's a shame you won't be doing anymore radio shows I really enjoyed them but it makes given the content of your video.

Your thoughts are pretty timely for me as I sat down with John at the weekend to help me look at things from an investors perspective and an outside view was really helpful.

Like you, what I'm really after is income but, obviously, my stake is considerably smaller.

I've already started making changes to that end and rarely post now. I'm not sure about manual curation either but for the time being I'm doing a bit of both - manual and automatic.

One thing I have no idea about though is taking investments out. Ultimately what I'm after is regular income rather than just building capital. I'm getting that with my heron accounts but I've yet to do the figures to work out how many of those I would need.

Also, I have no stategy from taking crypto out of the system and turning it to fiat, which if I want to enhance our income I will need to work out.

We're only talking small amounts for now but I'd like to have more of a plan in place.

I'm not sure if you're aware of @spi-invest. This has become part of my regular investment strategy and you might like the look of it too.

Finally, thanks again for the contest win. That was a very nice addition to my wallet. 😁

Thanks for saying that about the shows.

I would suggest you just keep posting and having fun. Just don't selfvote and don't use a bot is the simplest way to go about things without stress. Then whatever you get is what it is.

I miss sharing simple good vibes. I don't enjoy having to contemplate wether the content is good enough in the eyes of the content police all the time. It's like a heavy feeling every time before you press that post button, and I doubt anyone enjoys that.

If #newsteem works then simple posts should perfectly work together with posts that contain way more effort and should be judge accordingly.

Maybe I should just give it a go :)


Where I live there is a very open stance towards crypto and it's very easy to get in and out of it. I don't know how that is in the UK. Maybe make a post about it for some help :)

Congrats on winning the content. You deserve it.

God knows how much money is in my steemit wallet either I have enough or I don’t for steemit blockchain & @threespeak we’ll try anyway 😂😂

The amount you earn does not dictate whether or not you can save money.

The mind is powerful, every time we say that we don't have enough,
it negates action and the though becomes counterproductive for us.
Regardless of how much you earn,
make it a habit to pay yourself first.

That's too bad that you had to pull the plug. It is still going to be interesting to see how @3speak continues to evolve and grow. They have a really great product that influencers will definitely want to take advantage of. You've gotta be killing it with the curation though :)

Curation is going well indeed. I had to make changes to how I did things from #oldsteem but it's turning out really well and much better for the platform as a whole.

3speak is a great app that keeps improving. I'm hoping to give the Livestream a go soon.

If I look at the delegation market I think that's where excess SP could be used and with the RC pool in future. I think that 150 SP is more than enough for the average user. Businesses and these SMTs might start to gobble up the SP and secure it for resources on the chain.

I think I'm pretty much done buying Steem for now and I'm looking at other blockchains to invest in looking for other passive income streams been using MCO and CRO coin lately.

On steem?

Self proclaimed community watchdogs are actually hacking and stalking people.

This group https://steemit.com/@steemspeak is ran by https://steemit.com/@fyrstikken, They are hacking people that enter this discord server https://discordapp.com/invite/sqxV63P . Once you are hacked they profile you long enough to know all of your activities. They introduce workplace gangstalking visits and bring it to your attention cleverly and discretly so only you get it. They are very covert and tricky with everthing they say and do in this server. Some claim to have worked for or are working with the FBI and the NSA. Mixed with decomisioned traders and coding criminals, Its a scary mix of creepy people and thier intent is to drive you crazy and deplete everything you have ever aquired in life, even your freedom.

My hacking started with them introducing ransomeware that has options, dump my coin or delete my system drive. They acnowledged this to me in the server as it happened.

This hacking and stalking is done so they can manipulate the target to pump and dump for them. Threating and Making victims wear head phones, so nobody in your household can hear thier dramitization towards you. In 2017 this server was sidemarked as a drama show for entertainment purposes only as en excuse to say whatever they want all the way down to killing a politician. They have a server side command called "hey asshole" making a promt come up instructing everyone to wear headphones. They want everyone wearing headphones so nobody in your vicinity can hear them mess with you. Fystikken says its because of "mic feedback" but once your a target you get exactly why they make eveyone wear headphones.

With headphones on they subliminally direct victims with very low suggestive whispers mixed into their radio shows music. Combine this with them being able to manipulate their own individual outputs sound volume, which they control on the server side, they can pick what individual people hear and what at any given time. They decide who you hear on the server and change the volume controls for them. They can make some really low or off for those trying to investigate. They control who hears what and know who is who.

This team will find absolutely everything they can about you prior to using thier sugjestive and threatning program. They Introduce pictures that mean something only to the target, inducing paranoia while they watch and listen thru all of your circumvented devices. They are very aware of what makes you tick. They know your work schedule and use it for work stalking along side of this. I received multiple threating letters to my work and home addressed to my screen name from this group.

Fyrstikken tells people to sell their houses to buy crypto then dumps it on them. He has done many pump and dump scams. Quatloo being one of the first I witnessed and was done multiple times thru 2016 and 2017 them. It should be investigated for fraud. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=655793.0

Of course I don't think you're circle jerking, most times people vote quality and also the maximize the returns the the huge incoming curation reward, in my opinion I think one way or the other crypto Monday might come back in future it was fun the times you were bringing it.
As for the amount of Steem power needed? Wow that's huge I think if everybody bought all the Steem In circulation then we're in real value for Steem and that's why I think you until there's no liquid steem to go around again there isn't really a limitation to how much one might have. Nevertheless I do think he's essential that you raised this topic and as for me I'm buying Steem because I envision a huge future

Really glad to hear that you are using manual curation more often. It's encouraging to see you and other big Steemians visiting the quality posts of new or undervalued authors.

Spreading votes on others and manual curation will make Steem more exciting to outsiders. We need to show them that we are ready to share and build together. Not just say it, show it.

Happy curating! :D

It’s not just a question for Steem Power. Silver stackers often ask how much silver is enough. The answer is usually a few more ounces than I have right now.

The scarcity mindset is deep-rooted.

As they say "One Bullet is Enough to Take Down an Empire", just need to know where to aim. I believe same it the situation Steem power, unless and until someone wants to develop the targeted Steem tribe, help other in curation, and promote manual and good content, then whatever is received on regular basis should be enough for regular content creation and curation. How much Steem do you need??? Hmm, to be honest it is very complicated yet very simple question at same time. This is to be decided by individual, because it more steem power has more responsibilities otherwise someone can get selfish and ruin the beautiful gift of Steem power.

I always sort of wondered what is the most beneficial mana percentage to stay around for curation rewards. Curate more and the % goes down, but total rewards increases. Is there a sweet spot % I wonder. Noticed bigger accounts like yourself tend to keep mana above 90%. Is that the way to go, what do you think? Always look forward to your blogs btw!

Any vote close to 100% is the 'best'. But to keep it there it means a person would have to vote with 1 vote at 100% every two hours.

I usually make sure I'm around 90% mana when I go to bed. That gives my voting power 12 hours to recover.

It's usually around 96%-97% when I wake up.

I like this video .I need to know one thing.Like if you have power that mean you can vote yourself?or is it against the rules of 3 speak?And if we cannot upvote ourselves? And if we upvote others and comment other creators what should be the power we need to have to make decent income by commenting other and upvoting others .Your answer in this regard will be highly appreciated.

@exyle, In my opinion this is Situational question and in my opinion atleast Dolphin Size Stake will be effective in this Ecosystem. Stay blessed brother.

that is indeed a good vision, I have some leased out as well, but you say that you wait for companies to lease them SP. Then you mention steemmonsters but that is a home(steem)grown company. Getting outside companies to step in is going to be something different altogether

I understand your enthusiasm but you gonna get people hurt on their investment, start discussing Steem trading volume. Upbit and Bithumb could delist it anytime as it is way below the requirement. Let people know these are the consequences. We lose those exchanges and its a matter of time before Huobi goes with them and the ship trades on the mercy of Bittrex and Binance, where buying interest is minimal.

On STEEM, EOS or BITSHARES? have crypto? Human Trafficking Included. This is on VOICE as well. The developers are helping terrorists human traffic. WARNING

Fyrstikken tells people they are drafted like they did with Facebook at the beginning. He says Facebook was started by forced labor and V2K controlled slaves, just like he creates with his gang for steem and crypto. "Get to work bitch" he tells people once circumvented and intimidated.

Human trafficking is worse than drugs. Steemit censors important content that will expose them. Look at steemit.com/@gangstalking
