Hi guys,
It has been a while since my last post. After our conference back in June a lot of things happened, those kept me quite busy for a while, plus taking some holidays last weeks in the sunny almost boiling hot Spain.
I believe that is healthy to take some distance from the things you like to do the most, to gain some perspective, and ask yourself why do you do them.
Seeing steem going from 4 USD to less than one in the last months have not been easy, still, there are many other things to look at than the USD value of a project.
During these couple of months my involvement in the Swiss crypto space has ramped up quite nicely, and that is not linked to the general market cap, is something else, measured in crypto adoption, which ironically is proportionally inverse to the crypto market.
Taming the horse
For those of us here on the long run, there is not much to worry about. The best tool is to stop looking at your Delta app or your Blockfolio account. Unless you are doing active trading, this should not be of much worry for you. But let's focus on the important.
In my case, I have started to focus on generating wealth through passive income, if the USD price goes down, how to stop the bleeding.
During this time when I was away from posting, I kept earning steems, how? Through , just by selling my upvotes there I kept a steady inflow, though smaller thanks to the loss of USD value of Steem it was there. When I see that my coins keep growing, no matter what the price is, there is a certain sense of growth that helps you to achieve peace of mind.
My second tool may be better than steemit. I got to be one of the lucky ones to be inside the small circle of first adopters of a pre/ICO coin. I am talking about Lapo.io which is a Swiss project introducing a stable coin (not pegged). They gave their community the chance to mine their tokens using their own CPUs. Having a gaming rig I was able to mine enough during the first month to set up myself some Masternodes. With a current value of 35K each at ICO price, well, I am looking forward to seeing this project on the first page.
The MN provide me already of a steady inflow of new-minted tokens, even now with more than 250 MNs in the whole world, I am getting around one block reward every two hours. the return has been quite high in just 45 days, with around an 80% ROR on tokens.
The moral of the story is, no matter how bad the market looks, just take some distance and think about why are you here, was it the promise of quick riches Steemit gave you? To me even at this price is the rewarding feeling of speak out my mind to a nice audience of mind aliked people.
See you soon guys!
