RE: Steem Total Value Powered Up - $34 million - July 3, 2022

in #metrics3 years ago

I see the price of SBD and I think about the people who have been POWER UP using them, well even I did it, now I collect rewards and no, they don't appear anywhere, so I change all my steem to SBD, I don't like this , maybe I am very distrustful , I really am , I do not like this , so I gave myself POWER DOWN , I will turn all these steem into SBD , it is better to be distrustful , well it is my humble opinion as I always say

Sort:  

I'm not going to advise one way or another, but this comment puzzles me.

It seems to me that the ratio between STEEM and SBD has actually traded in a fairly consistent range for a year or two (which you can see by the way it straddles the mean in the graph up above). I honestly don't see either one as higher risk than the other. On the other hand, at least powered up STEEM is receiving a little bit of interest.

Anyway, I'm not trying to change your mind, but I'm just confused. In the current market, I guess any crypto carries its share of risk.

When I get my rewards no, no, there is SBD, only steem, tron and voting power, the price of SBD has always exceeded the price of STEEM, I don't know what to think, but this makes me feel unmotivated, I will continue saving SBD, that yes, I will do it

Oh, now I understand. Yes, SBD rewards stop when the price of STEEM goes too low.

I wrote about that, here - https://steemit.com/steem/@remlaps-lite/steem-for-script-kiddies-sbd-debt-ratio.

Steemit first posted about it here (6 years ago) - https://steemit.com/steem/@dantheman/steem-dollar-stability-enhancements.

It's done to prevent the blockchain from being overwhelmed by SBD conversions.

Not sure, but I guess STEEM needs to get back somewhere around 28 or 30 cents for it to start printing SBDs again.
