What a year its been! 2020 looks to be even bigger and better

Well the end of 2019 has come around and we're still here!

Infact we are finishing this year off stronger than we have ever been. I did say that I wanted 200,000SP before the end of the year and I've managed to smash that:

208k steem power, and it won't end there!

I'd love to be able to take all the credit and say that the massive jump in STEEMPOWER was down to my negotiation skills and charm..... but simply down to the big drop in #minnowbooster lease rates.

This has allowed me to not only increase SP from some leasers for the same amount of steem payments, but also pick up some incredibly great rates on new leases.

The @ssg-community wallet still looks pretty healthy and I'm still fine tuning and finding that balance where we become completely self sustainable and any future #monsterraffle will be purely for fun.

I'm expecting a few more steem to turn up in the @ssg-community wallet at the start of January, due to the monthly liquid steem donations. I will be using all liquid steem to further increase the community STEEMPOWER, thus giving everyone an even better upvote for your quality blogs.

That being said, the @ssg-community account can accommodate all steem power delegations upto and including 2500sp. For my sake please try and keep delegations to 2500, 1000, 500, 250 & 100sp, but should you really want to I can do random amounts like 1836SP. BUT PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE....

To calculate any liquid steem equivalent simply multiply any SP delegation by 0.02 to work out the liquid steem amount -

Eg 2500SP X 0.02 = 50 steem.

As a community we continue to grow and still become closer together. This year was no exception.

This year we've pulled off some amazing things:

The #secretsanta appears to be a success. There are a few outstanding gifts still left to arrive and if you're waiting for yours let me know and I can chase them up.

The #steemsilverround has started to make its way all over the planet and I love to see everyone's unboxings.

A massive thank you goes out to @raybrockman for organising it, sorting it, seeing it through and dispatching everyone's orders.

These rounds have been designed by the steemit community, for the steemit community and every person on steemit will be wanting one of these. Unfortunately the only way to pick one of these up now is through the second hand market. So if you see one come up for sale, I suggest snapping them up.

That only leaves me to say: " I hope your 2019 was a success and I pray your 2020 becomes everything g you want it to be"

The #steemsilvergold will always be here and we hope you can join us all too for an even bigger an better 2020
