When it comes to blogging (proof of brain) on the Steem blockchain I like to make the comparison with bitcoin mining.
It was fairly easy to mine Bitcoin with your own computer back in 2009 but when more people started to do the same thing it got harder and harder over time.
The same logic applies to blogging for me and I wrote about this 9 months ago.
At the beginning (a little under 2 years) some early bloggers earned well over 100.000 STEEM or more tokens with blogging in a fairly short amount of time (less than a year).
Trying to do that today is nearly impossible.
Just like Bitcoin the increase in value of the STEEM token makes up for the decrease in the amount of tokens you get for your blogging efforts.
Earning 40 STEEM token worth $0.10 a year ago, is the same as earning 1 STEEM token worth $4 today.
The difference is that if you kept the 40 STEEM you would have been even better of.
Of course holding STEEM is not 100% risk free.
If something would happen to the blockchain that would break it or something else, call it reason X than all the STEEM tokens you have are worthless.
This is the risk everyone that holds STEEM tokens (or any other crypto for that matter) takes every day.
Now I don't think this very likely to happen but I do wanted to name it.
I talk about it more in my vlog.
My post 9 months ago
From one of my comments 9 months ago:
> But I don't worry about these things. I'm trying to better myself as a blogger and also have invested in STEEM because I believe in it a lot. This is something I can do for myself and the Steem blockchain today and I'm putting a lot of my time into it (and loving it in the process).
> If steem proves to be successful in 5 years it will have (most likely) attracted bigger names. Bigger names will scoop up more rewards because they add value to the Steem blockchain with their following (more users). In case this happens I will have a tough time competing with them with my life blogs. But I'll still be happy because I own Steem tokens.

I want to give out a confidential knowledge.
HOW TO HACK INTO ANY WI-FI, ROUTER WITHIN SECONDS.
I WANT TO TEACH YOU HOW TO HACK INTO ANY Wi-Fi, ROUTER TO GET THE PASSWORD AND ALSO CHANGE IT IF YOU WANT THEREBY KICKING THE OWNER OUT. ☺
All you need to perform this hack is a device that's connected to that Wi-Fi, router.
If you don't have a connected device, you can't perform this hack.
°from that connected device, goto browser, type this address
192.168.1.1
This address works for both swift and spectranet.
But if you have a different Wi-Fi, search for the Wi-Fi address on Google or if you can access the Wi-Fi, router, look at the back you'll find its own address.
After you have entered the address, you will see a login portal.
Use admin for username and password
Or user for username and password.
After you have gained access, just navigate to Wi-Fi settings. There you'll see the Wi-Fi password. ☺
And you can change it if you want. Meaning you'll be the only one who will have access to the Wi-Fi.

INFORMING THE MASSES - A short list of some of the abuses against @Noganoo by Satanic whales on Steemit.
For those of you who are unaware @Noganoo was sexually abused when he was 5 years old. Bernie Sanders learned this from Fyrstikken whom Noganoo trusted and confided in and then was betrayed and slandered by Fyrstikken whom Noganoo brought to Steemit. Noganoo only requested that Fyrstikken send back the 10 Bitcoins he stole from SatoshiHorizon through his “altcoin investment fund.” Noganoo stood up against Bernie's flag abuse towards SeaBlue which caused the war that you are seeing today. Bernie swore to destroy Noganoo because Noganoo defended the helpless minnows on Steemit. Below are just a few of the terrible insults they have spoken against this Christian man. Please visit @Noganoo's blog and support and encourage him through these demonic attacks as his old friends have forsaken him. Not only do these people verbally attack Noganoo but they antagonize him until he responds in anger, then they sent the FBI to his house for "threatening." Noganoo has requested to all of the whales on steemit directly for them to speak to these 2 fraudsters and tell them to stop. Not a word was said in one year and now he is resorting to further action. The abuse will stop. If you have any information as to the identity or whereabouts of BernieSanders or Pfunk please contact abuse@steem.in. There is a substantial reward and you can remain anonymous. Noganoo is unable to file a restraining order against these 2 until he finds their identity. BernieSanders is a pedophile and should not be rewarded with upvotes on Steemit.
First of all let's go back to before this all started. Noganoo was investigating the fraud and theft of 10s of millions of dollars of rewards by Donkeypong, Gavvet, HanshotFirst, Kevinwong, The-Alien, JrCornel, Sweetsssj and Knozaki2015 with their organization called "SteemGuild" where they used the Steemit Co-founder Ned's account to vote for themselves instead of the "minnows" they claimed to be supporting. Go look at all of their current account values and you can see that over 1 year ago Noganoo was right! They paid themselves multi-millions for only a couple months of curating on Steemit. Something the rest of us do for free. You can see that these people and their friends are the only people who have ever attacked Noganoo. They are trying to cover up their theft. If you go back on the blockchain you can see Noganoo's accounts previously supported most of these authors with his thousand bot voters early on in the platforms launch. https://steemd.com/@sweet-banana?page=17 Then Noganoo called out The-Alien for his common use of the word "Motherfucker" in his fiction stories that were upvoted by their "Steemguild" to number one on trending every day to "raise money for the guild." Fact is they stole millions of dollars. This rebuke prevented Noganoo from ever getting an upvote from that guild which controlled over 30% of the voting power on Steemit at the time.

Here is Pfunk attacking Noganoo's girlfriend.

Here Bernie tries to twist the truth and calls him an "incestuous criminal." Bernie is trying to convince the unknowing public that Noganoo is a sex criminal.

Here is Pfunk 2 years ago violently attacking an article Noganoo wrote about Christianity, Pfunk at the time had no idea Noganoo wrote this! Pfunk is a hater of true Christians but aligns himself with the fake Christians so he can get more witness votes and doesn't lose support. Pfunk proceeded to individually message everyone that upvoted Noganoo and slander him and threaten them with loss of support if they continue to upvote his articles. Pfunk, Berniesanders and Ausbitbank costed Noganoo over 50,000 dollars in losses last year. Ausbitbank attacked Noganoo to impress his witness friends when Noganoo is the one who brought him to Steemit. He brought Noganoo’s reputation from 68 down to zero with stolen Steempower provided by JamesC
