Life is all about energy and balance. After hanging out 24/7 with @yangyanje for two and a half weeks now - except for traveling separately from Berlin to Zürich due to a missed flight - I am feeling a little bit drained and so does he. That’s what happens to an introvert like me, who gets recharged by alone time ;>)

Nevertheless, we keep upping our energy by eating good healthy food, good communication ( almost as if we’re a couple ), loads of fresh air and walking as well as by focusing on Steemit and creativity.

Yesterday, we met up with another Steemian - @karinxxl - read more on that in yangyanje's blog post - and we talked for over two hours about cryptocurrency, steemit and all kinds of other nerdy exciting stuff. She then met up with an inactive Steemian who apparently does awesome drone filmmaking and @yangyanje and I accompanied them for a bit. Let’s see if the short amount of time that he and I talked to this guy will get him back to posting again :>)

Today I got rid of my last bit of Binance ( coin ) and transferred it to Ether and then Steem. I bought it for way less than its current worth and Binance and its exchange aren’t oozing a lot of positivity lately, to say the least. More importantly, I believe in Steem, Steemit and its future. So whatever coin I can convert to Steem is slowly being replaced by it, without betting on one single horse. Steem is definitely my number one horse though these days. Bitcoin comes second.

Even though it is said that there’s only 3500 active users, out of over one million accounts, people seem to be more active building on the Steem blockchain than ever before. The price of Steem might be lower than I’ve ever seen it - since I joined the platform two years and two months ago - that doesn’t make me less bullish or positive about its future. In fact, it’s an awesome buying opportunity. That is why both @yangyanje and I ( and hopefully ) many other active Steemians keep buying and powering up Steem these days. There will come a time, where we can’t afford to buy Steem any more. Sooner rather than later. So let’s make use of this golden opportunity.

What about you? Are you buying and powering up Steem? What are your feelings about the future of Steem and Steemit?


P.S. The picture above this post is a screenshot of an awesome iPhone app called Steemify, that informs you of all kinds of notifications around your account as well as those of your favorite Steemians. Highly recommended!
