My 1-year vlogging anniversary is coming up this month.

So I was going through some of my old vlogs to hear my thoughts and ideas I had back then about the Steem blockchain.

For old times sake this vlog is on youtube :)

I calculated back then that $3-$4 STEEM would be the dream for me because I could then live of curation alone (150 STEEM a week).

I also say that earning STEEM would be harder and harder in the future and that the people that powered down (back then) would never be able to earn the STEEM back in the future by blogging.

I also look forward to communities and I mention that I would like to try Steepshot iOS (but it wasn't released yet).

I was partly right about things.

Curation rewards have gone down and 150 is no longer correct. It's gone down to around 75, even though I have more SP now.

The amount of STEEM you earn though blogging has gone down a lot and I was right. Earning powered down STEEM back by blogging alone has proven to be impossible.

Communities I still look forward too and Steepshot iOS has of-course been released and it's fantastic.

I talk about it more in my vlog.
