Steempower the Holy Grail of this community. For me, it seems like that.
I wanted to know if the widespread opinion that more steempower gives you more success on this site is real.
So I tried it out. Currently, I have 7,500 steempower and got 11.000 delegated from minnowbooster.
So does more Steempower affect your Steemit Journey?
Yes, it does!
In my opinion, it could be a bit overhyped. I will explain what I mean.
During the time I rented some Steempower I had an eye on users where I think that they are successfully on their way but with less Steempower.
It's difficult to analyze if my progress came alone because I have more Steempower. But from what I observed I don't believe it.
Of course, more Steempower attracts people but owning a lot of it alone will not bring you much success here. Some people look specifically only for users with much Steempower, but it's more an exception than the typical behavior of users.
For me, the good thing about having much Steempower is that you can sweeten the day of others. When you see a great post with not so much Upvotes or if they are not so much worth in numbers you can bring a smile on the authors face. Especially for newcomers.
This is all my opinion. I would not say that if I had had a really huge amount like 50.000k Steempower, it would be the same. Maybe I would have made a different experience. I don't know that, but I will also try this out.
That means you could have made a totally different experience. If this is the case, feel free to share it in the comment section.
But I noticed something that makes me believe that there is something more important, something that has more impact than just having a bunch of Steempower.
I will share it with you in the next one.
Thanks for reading.
