I'm pretty thrilled that the trail is now over 750,000sp and voting on me once per day. In fact it is one of 2 reasons that I have been diligently working on steemit during the bear market. The other is
.
I remember when btc was at 10k and my friend converted 1 btc to steem and held it without staking. On the same day I invested my crypto scrapings into steem and staked. I am now down only around 39% while my friend is down 91%. Why?
Because of the Trail!
My personal SP hovers around 1000sp and that's the sweet spot for earning the most roi for participating in the curation trail. The fine people with a lot of sp are basically giving it away to the plankton and minnows as a sort of charity venture while they receive a little bit of return in exchange.
Believe me the math isn't so great for the large stake holders but they do it because they "get it". They understand that in order to protect their investment, the "little guy" has to be helped.
I get 1 vote per day at around $.70 at today's prices and it has allowed me to grow my stake considerably and negate nearly 50% of my total crypto losses so far.
If you have 500sp or higher you should take advantage of the trail.
