Do you remember when you first started on Steemit? You made a few posts to test out the 'waters' and to find out exactly what this blogging site/stuff was all about.
Your rep was 25 and you most likely earned a few SBD's/Steem on your introduction post. (If you made one) Then you thought to yourself....hmm, maybe this is a good way to earn some of that cryptocurrency that my friends are talking about... And I can actually transfer it back to $ if I wanted too......sounds good.
If you were like most (I assume), you continued posting and some of your posts received 0...? You did not have very many followers and most of them were a minnow just like yourself so your vote was worth .01....
So if you have been on this site for a while, why not send a small upvote to those that are new to the platform. Just hit that 'New' link on the top of the page and find a post title that you like.
Yesterday I went through the 'New' page and was specifically looking for 'reps' under 35 or so and sent them a small upvote. I actually feel like a minnow myself at times, but I'm a semi-veteran in terms of time as I have been on here since July 17. (About 9 months, it's actually a long time in crypto...)
When you produce a post, it only takes a few seconds to do a quick scan of the 'New' page and make a few minnows happy. =)
On another note, here is a Crypto Index that I came across which is from the Six Swiss Exchange. it is named Crypto Market Index 10 and will probably be a good way to track all of the top crypto's by marketcap. I'm sure BTC will have a very similar chart pattern...
The symbol is CMI10. This is the daily chart with heikin ashi candlesticks and bollinger band applied. It started in January 18, so there is not much of a history yet.
There is the 'Bit 20' Index that has been around for a while.
The Bit 20 holdings.
I think it's just a matter of time before a ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) is approved by the SEC (United States). Then there will be double ETF's and Inverse ETF's. Wall Street is always looking for ways to make $$$...
