Steem power

The more STEEM POWER you have, when you upvote someone, the more money value you give them.
AND

The more STEEM POWER you have, when you cash out later and power down, the more money value you get
"75% of Steem inflation goes to authors and curators on posts and upvotes while 15% is given to Steem Power and 10% to witnesses. This means out of the 9.26% current total inflation, about 7.1% of all new Steem "printed" is given out to users making posts, comments, and upvoting through curation. Before 16.0 the inflation went mostly to Steem power with authors, curators, and witnesses getting a few remaining percent."

This is controversial, but I'll say it anyway. If you have a tiny account, worth less than $100 USD your words and thoughts are often taken more lightly, than someone that has $100,000 USD worth of steem power.

This isn't always the case. However, it often IS the case. Bigger SP holders (especially whales) seem to have more attention when they post something, because everyone is hoping to be noticed by them. So there is an unspoken added respect given to them. (deserved or not)
So only take what you absolutely need today. Invest and keep your holdings safe in Steem Power for your future.

Steem Power is good. The more you have is good. When all of us do it, it's good.
