RE: The Grandma Test

I'm not unhappy to have stayed here. I've met a lot of great people—like you, Max, a lot of the Japanese users now and over the years, and some good poets—that makes me really happy to have participated and continue being here. That has been nice.

But yeah, from an income perspective... keeping money here has definitely been a mistake when compared to what could have been gained by just sticking it in BTC. At the same time, keeping money here has probably been better than having it in a savings account, making this a nice nest egg for the future.

Hmm.. I try not to think of where I would be had I taken it all out back when Steem spiked to $17 (and SBD to $34) and put it in BTC...

I have no regrets about staying. I think it’s a great place to be. I also don’t regret continuing to power up every month’s rewards, but from a profit standpoint, yes, I could have made some different decisions that would have had some very different results. As could many of us.

Referencing your post more specifically, and how it relates to the value of Hive, the difficulty of onboarding new people and the ease with which they’re shooed away, that is the real shame.

You’d think some kind of resolution to this would have been found by now.
