 --- A GOPHER-LIKE INTERFACE FOR HIVE BLOCKCHAIN ---

Vlog 218: Every Steem token you earn with blogging today will be more rare in the future.

BY: @exyle | CREATED: Feb. 14, 2018, 8:27 a.m. | VOTES: 638 | PAYOUT: $411.37 | [ VOTE ]

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.

"If steem proves to be successful in 5 years it will have (most likely) attracted bigger names."

I have already seen this start happening! Today I saw that youtube star Furious Pete has joined the steemit community and now posts here, and on Dtube. I personally think this is great for the platform, and is going to put more eyes on STEEM.

I think STEEM will perform very well in the years to come. This platform is gaining new users everyday and the community and system is great.

Exciting times are ahead of us!

Another long-termer, you got off to a head start but I will try and catch up,
There is risk every time you get out of bed, but you do, there is risk in the blockchain but you stay. Live dangerously, Steem on.

@phoneinf | Feb. 14, 2018, 10:39 a.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

It's actually more dangerous to not take risks especially in these times when everything is constantly changing. Doing the same thing all the time that is super risky. Because that for sure will not work out well in the long run! In the long run yes all will fail including our bodies. But at least we can have some fun while we are alive and try new stuff out!

Then we also have this thing how people that has been in something for a long time usually stop learning new skills! So newcomers can usually make fast gains and find new interesting opportunities that others miss out on because they keep doing the same as they always done!

Still a novice in the crypto world so please pardon my seemingly dumb question.

Was the bitcoin morning process capital free? How did you guys mine bitcoin back then in comparison to minning steem which is done through blogging?

well, the risk with steem is that you might lose time if you did not invest any fiat
most people lose a lot of time in front of the TV watching reruns from friends. So in that case the time in steem would be spent better in any case.

@exyle | Feb. 14, 2018, 4:02 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Yes, when you buy STEEM you basically buy the time you would normally spend blogging (and earning STEEM). But it's a shortcut because you don't build your account (followers, rep, relationships).

I have done a combination of the two (blogging and investing).

@melbookermusic | Feb. 15, 2018, 7:11 a.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

@exyle I think this is the way too. I wish it was easier to do for people relatively new to the crypto space. Nonetheless, I am going to be doing this as well. Great idea.

@blog-beginner | Feb. 14, 2018, 8:40 a.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Sounds very rare that something would happen to the blockchain. We have already seen that it is highly scalable. I would never cash out my Steem unless it is the last source of money for me to survive.
Why would I cash out when holding it is like compounding the interest.

Yes that true steem dollar supply is increasing day by day it almost daubles in last 2-3 months. If steem dollar price will back down to 1 dollar due to increase in supply then it will be very difficult to make steem so i think it is best to time create more content and earn steem.

This is absolutely true...the more steemit becomes more popular which im so positive it definitely will...the more users will increase in number and the more "mining" (getting steem) difficulty will increase. The value of steem will have increased. I'd love to call steem as the next generation bitcoin.

You made valuable points on your post, the reality of increase in population on daily bases does not allow the prize of things or market chain to remain same, and if you can remember from the study of economics then there is no much influence we can do in trying to control fluctuation in the business world. My hope is that steem should just make a very wealthy stand, in this regards there would be no course for Alarm.

Blockchains are made of secure military grade cryptographic algorithms, though attempts at hacking crypto-currencies at exchanges and wallets have been more successful, but Blockchain itself is very secure.. Yes, i agree that holding STEEM is not 100% risk free but the chance of loosing value of STEEM because of STEEM Blockchain is almost negligible...

@phoneinf | Feb. 14, 2018, 10:27 a.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

If STEEM lose value will not that be a major opportunity to pick up tons of STEEM for a mega low price. Also how the competition must then go down a lot because many will just quit? That would be a very interesting scenario. We new guys on this platform of course have no idea how Steemit was in the early days and how much that has changed just in the last 3 months. Isn't the real value to have the money (value) keep streaming to other users?

@synchrotronics | Feb. 14, 2018, 9:02 a.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

I think holding Steem is a good idea because most of the investors do not know the platform well yet. I learned about it in the context of EOS, and immediately got very excited because I used to spend a lot of time on twitter. Moreover, the platform will be attractive to all who want to be visible, and who fear they might be taken down by centralised social media. The list is long here. Hence, it is very unlikely that the platform will not be successful, but as always, the time will show. Also, I'd rather keep Steem than Cardano, for example, because Steem has a foundation in the platform, and Cardano is just an ambitious project.

EDIT: Besides, I wouldn't worry that much about STEEM, as I would about the US dollar that we use to value it. What if the Federal Reserve breaks down???

I wish I'd have thought of that when I stared and held onto my Steem tokens. I guess a part of me thought I'd always be able to write something amazing and make up the difference.

However, I got a massive boost and lesson in crypto as a whole by moving things around and buying different tokens. The experience has really been invaluable.

Hard + Smart work is a winning formula! Look at what the masters are doing and follow them. In a way I guess you could say that you do use them since your voting weight goes down when you upvote. But I see what you are saying! On Steemwhales poloniex has the most steem tokens! But there is not that much information about the account. A mystery I see!

In the world many do hard work and it doesn't really pay off that much. But when we add the smartness and intelligence and follow the best of the best then we get everything that we want! Being humble is really a major thing in this game. But I'm curious if outside money comes in doesn't that do so the earnings may increase for people? More money more rewards and more fun? Maybe I'm missing something!

Hmmm. Not sure what I feel about that @exyle. I already feel I'm working flat out here so can't increase that. Sounds like the good news part is reliant on the Steem price increasing which, as you say, isn't guaranteed.

I'm also noticing quite a lot of mumblings about people jumping ship to the new EOS platform when it's active (might have got the currency wrong) or when SMTs (is that the right term) come in. It's all quite unsettling when you're just starting out.

But what's the point of only sitting on a pile of tokens if you can't get any use of them? In other words, it's nice to look at the increasing amount of STEEM in my account but that alone won't put food on my table...

I would like to be able to use Steemit as a source of regular income, not only as a place to invest - and by investing I mean simply powering up from my earned STUs. But eventually, I will want to withdraw that money or use it for something else than just a nice decoration of my account value :)

So I think it's wise to have some kind of a strategy as to what to do with it as you go on. I withdraw most of my SBDs and power up with the STEEM. And when STEEM goes up significantly (which isn't guaranteed but hopefully likely), then I can see myself taking out chunks as needed, while still keeping the rest for the value to grow - if that will continue to be the trend... Just my 5 cents ;)

Of course, Steem will worth more in future. I started two months ago, unfortunately not more montha ago. It is difficult to earn more reaards right now, but sure in future might be more hard to receive even rewards from now.

I think if you write well and put quality content on your blog, of course, people will come more, upvote your post and your reputation will increase.

Well said Exyle! This is very exciting to think a currency that you WANT to save will continue to grow in value instead of being DEVALUED! This is exactly the opposite of what governments worldwide want from us....thats why they continue to devalue it. So we have to spend it faster and faster so it has the same value as the value of our time at the time of the work !!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR MAKING STEEM GREAT I have seen you on here from the beginning and I have watched you grow your account from nothing to something over time and this my friend IS WHATS ITS ALL ABOUT a hards days work for an honest days pay !! good luck and I look forward to your meal posts I show them to my kids !!!!!

Just do 50/50 and swap your sbd for sp on Blocktrades or an exchange. If you do 100% sp you get less overall at the moment because of the high price of sbd.

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 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

It's kinda sad that getting 100k steem power is impossible today. But in the end what matters is ROI. Do you think it's likely that whales will eventually power down as the price of steem rises and level the playing field a bit? As steem goes up it becomes more attractive for the whales of today to finally cash their investments, I assume.

The difficulty will increase that is very true as the prices will increase more people will join in we will see this trend of declining reward in 2018 for sure its the best time to grab some

Thats right I joined and steem was 10 cents amd were being sent around like candy now t hey are $4 ad have been as high as $8 recently

I tell people it will hit $100 an if we ht a facebook level marketcap of $500 billion we WIL have $2000 steem price... are we not worth as much as facenok potentially? of course we are and so we WILL have a $2000 Steem price one day maybe past 2021 or 2025 but it WILL happen in the next 2-10 years and it WILL be glorious!

This IS the next Bitcoin, its STEEM and EOS and SMTs will bring us EVERYTHINg we ever wanted in a blockchain

when fiat pours into crypto when we have BIG crypto ESTABLIHED when Bitcoin is BATTLETESTED and Steem is ,oking like FAcebook was when it was tajing off, when THAT happens peopel will see their crumbling odl fiat central bank money as a scam and get iut SO fast but crypto will be there to KEEP the society pillars from crumbling it will catch things! new elite will emerge huge transfer of wealth its unstoppable u cant stop it becvause its decentralzied in every country and even within the USA its so decentralied between so many states theres no way to control everyones finances its game over we have financial freedom forver basically theers no beast grid it lost(edited)
so p[eopel will RACE tpo get into crypto uits ALL there ius! you thinkl peoepl will stay in fiat when they figure out its a scam?!?!
We iwll see crypto in the hundreds of trillions no doubt no doubt 100%
there is nothing else, this is the futur eof money period and Bitcoin is it, steem EOS and zclassic (Bitcoin pruvate) will be all thre is until something bettr comes along

I love your enthusiasm and energy (hence the upvote) but a few seconds running your reply through a spellchecker would get you more attention, more followers and more STEEM.

My thoughts are very long term. Just reached level 50 and now plan to keep going. This little milestone has me thinking much longer term with this. Not worried about what happens in the next 12 months, but more thinking about how this might fund my kids college education 6 and 10 years down the road.

Maybe that is optimistic, but think that as long as the platform survives it's a real goal to help provide a real future for my kids without them being strapped with massive debt from school.

You are absolutely right, it's time to collect maximum steem and consume these steem to steem power and have high reputation. My initial journey plan when i joined steem was to improve my writing skill than i re-modified my plan, second plan was to earn enough reward so i could pay my internet bill from steem. Now i again re-evaluated my plan my next plan is to get good reputation and steem power. keep sharing @exyle

Yeah when most people calculate their ROI from the number of sbd they get back from the post because that is liquid but the Steem power gotten back is equally as important , its like getting yourself a piece of the future of steemit.

We had this thought the other day. In a sense, we are glad for the 50/50 payouts and since selling your SBD gives you more STEEM at the moment. We are taking advantage of that. Power Up and build up that STEEM as it will be difficult in the future as you said.
@exyle hopefully, the test results went well for your father. :)

Steem doubling every year will help balance this a little, correct?

I know that overall, you're 100% right, but wondering if there are other fixes and how much the doubling of Steem, if at all, will help.

One thing what makes STEEMIT.COM better than any other social media platform is because of its sustainability. In game theory perspective, how it was set up is good for long term investment for both curators and authors. The reason why I switched to STEEMIT.COM from FB is because the way the system setup. The same as a former player in DOTA 2 switched to LEAGUE OF LEGENDS. :)

Fingers crossed.. One of my colleague introduced me to this platform, like all other people I started thinking about earning SBDs (Value of Steem was high at that time) , but yes it is quite difficult. But the good thing is, this platform is something more than earning, you get to know more people, you can read good stuff here, write your heart out etc... I'm also thinking about investing in it.. Please suggest!

Great insight, great knowledge you have on this stuff. Saw you comment on a friend in common's post @broncnutz. I'm a travel blogger on here. Have been living out of a backpack for 11 plus years. So I knew nothing about crypto, computers, or even blogging when I joined. Things have changed a bit as I have found some success here and am even part of the sndbox group. Not sure if you've heard of them.

So I'm just stopping by to thank you for sharing this bit of info and introduce myself to you. I don't follow too many people but you certainly seem worth following so done, and done! I'll be around. -Dan "World-Travel-Pro!"

I think the whole idea behind this is amazing. I'm already starting to talk about it to my friends and family because its really one of those opportunities that you don't get very often in life. I was introduced to bitcoin in 2009 and I tried using my computer to mine it but I never found a block. Then fast forward 4 years later I hear of people doing bitcoin arbitrage. Again, I looked into it and found that confusing because I'm not good with numbers. Fast forward again and here I am earning steem for doing what I would do normally on other social media networks. Here people actually have a reason to engage with you because there is something in it for them. I'm a minnow but the longer I spend on here the more I realize the power of it. Great Video!

This is critical for me, because I'm thinking of doing some cloud mining with Minergate. Perhaps i should do it anyways with the advent of BTC rising in value for 2020 or the stock market crash. Thanks for this video Mr @exyle. I need these kinds of solutions. Getting in early and holding the gold for my grand kids. I've never understood why people would power down.

> 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.

The same holds true with everything in life. We have to compete with bigger names for smaller rewards. But the way I look at it, the only person I should be competing with is myself. Am I doing better than I was? Am I happy with what I am doing? Those are the only questions I need answers to.

I’m very new to Steemit, but I think that’s good advice @exyle.

If the miner who bought the $100,000,000.00 pizza feels sore, then perhaps he/she will find comfort in knowing that his/her action has prevented countless thousands of folks from making similar mistakes.

With three posts and a little curation under my belt, I’m well on my way to making my first $1 on Steemit. But, that’s still $1 more than Facebook, Vimeo, Instagram or YouTube ever paid me.
