I have been on steemit for 15 months and I finally reached my 61 reputation! Man it's been a long road. I also finally broke my 1,000 steem mark! I know that doesn't sound like a lot to many of you but I have done it totally organically so it has been long slow road.
I know I could of achieved this much sooner but I have taken multiple months off a few times so that definitely slowed me down a bit. Better late than never though, right?
When I intially started on steemit I came only to earn steem. I had read the white paper and thought it had a great idea but I really didn't want to invest money in at the time because I wasn't sure if it would succeed or not back in August 2017. I figured I'd feel it out for a while and then decide, well before I knew it the bull run was happening and steem was $8! Way to expensive for me to buy in at so I waited.
Then the bear market came and I also moved into a new home so it wasn't a great time to buy. Now it's getting hammered and I would love to buy in but then we get the bad news from steem.inc anout 70% layoffs and that makes me hesitate once again.
I have come to love steemit so much through this journey and I believe steem deserves a place in the top 5 cryptos if they can get their shit together or at least let our beloved steemit community help out, we have more than enough intelligent/capable people who would gladly help steem become great and that is another reason I love this community so damn much!
I guess I will continue to post and comment for my steem for now, but I would love to get my dolphin status while it's still affordable like it is now! So many decisions..
Anyhow, take care friends.. I'll be seeing you around! Steem onāš
