It's been 2 months since I last posted on that other chain ;) and about 2 months since I began my power down.

Between the baby, life and not being that crypto savvy I'm pretty sure I missed out on great conversion deals. I keep waiting for that other coin to pump but aside from that one time a few weeks ago I really believe #steemisdead. And if I wasn't sure then I was reassured when I got this email from stinc a couple of days ago.

Yo. When did they ever do a mail out promoting posts? Is this a sign of desperation?

Trading

I loathe trading I really do. It seriously gives me anxiety and FOMO gets me every single time.

When I did my first steem to hive conversion weeks ago I had to do it via steem-engine which, to me, was a muck around. I had to set my sell price then google how to do a manual transfer.. All of it was just too much for me so I left it for a few weeks and decided to invest in some splinterlands cards.

But now that Hive account@blocktrades supports steem to hive conversion I'm able to trade and power up more often and without the anxiety. Cheers man! 🍻.

Out of 6k SP that I've worked hard to accumulate since 2017 I have 4k left that needs to be converted and 1k sitting in steem-engine that I regret moving over so I still have a while to go before I'm clear and free.

Delegations

A week ago I had over 3k of my HP delegated out to various accounts only 1 account of of them all was actually giving me a return for my delegation and that was Hive account@qurator.

Aside from last week, which was a miracle week, I haven't been posting much if at all. I usually go weeks on end not posting which means some of my delegations weren't working for me and when I did post they still weren't working for me so I had to change things up.

I've removed 1k worth, kept 3 delegations that upvote me when I post, I also kept Hive account@qurator and picked up Hive account@curangel so now I have two that give me a return for my investment. This way I can still get post support, grow my HP without effort and give higher upvote value.

Curation

Which then brings me to curation.

Where do I find trails to follow? My HP is always around 98% which to me means I'm not upvoting/supporting enough posts. And really what's the point of working on my HP if I'm not going to use it?

If someone can point me to the right direction I'd appreciate it. I haven't been on much over the last few months so I'm not up to date on where to find things and new developments.

Are you switching to Hive completely too? How are you powering up? Are you waiting for better prices? Which is a better route in terms of reinvesting your HP ~ delegation or curation?

Let me know!
