As a commitment to the community and technology behind steem, I have just powered-up my account. I convert some Ether into Steem via BlockTrades. I was shocked at how easy and quick it is!
Within a few seconds the steem was in my wallet and I was able to power up immediately. If you're not sure what Steem Power is, here's the definition straight from the helpful FAQ.
"STEEM Power - STEEM Power (abbreviated SP) is a measurement of how much influence a user has in the Steem network. The more STEEM Power a user holds, the more they can influence the value of posts and comments. STEEM Power is less liquid. If a user wishes to “Power Down” SP, they will receive equal distributions of the STEEM weekly, over a 13 week period."
Now that I've got (a little bit of) the POWER a dilemma arises... should I upvote my posts and comments? Hmm... it feels like cheating but it is technically allowed.
What do you think?
