The First Conversion

Yesterday was the first day of the rinse-repeat conversion cycle. The first posts paid out and the @likwid service worked as intended, making available the entire post rewards as liquid STEEM. Only the initial post didn't use Likwid and thus the earning from that are being powered down at 8 STEEM per week.

As suggested by @cardboard, the STEEM earned from the posts was sent to his @bank.sbd tool with the memo swap and was instantly sold at market with no commission, to yield around 46 SBD which was sent back to @sbdpotato. The SBD was then put through the conversion process. The conversion will take place over a 3.5 day period, after which liquid STEEM should be available to purchase SBD again and so on.

In the meantime, post earnings will increase the overall amount of funds within @sbdpotato and each week the recycled SBD amount available for conversion will be larger.

Incase you missed it; here is THE LINK to the intro post about @sbdpotato.

TlDr, you vote for @sbdpotato's daily posts and the rewards @sbdpotato earns will be used to purchase SBD on the internal market, convert it to STEEM (reducing the SBD supply) and then the converted STEEM will be used in a circular fashion to purchase more SBD - Rinse Repeat! That's basically it!

What do you get out of supporting @sbdpotato?

Well firstly by voting this post you will be helping fix SBD to get it pegged to 1 USD again as it was meant to, this could also help bring the STEEM price up with it. There is a theory that the two are circular, a strong SBD gives support to healthier STEEM prices, perhaps due to positive sentiment in the network.

In addition to doing your part to improve the economy of the Steem network, you will also earn SP curation rewards from voting the post that hopefully get decent traction.

You can set the @sbdpotato account on autovote using a service like beta.steemvoter, by creating a stream to autovote the @sbdpotato account at around 4 or 5 minutes as per the screenshot below. There are also other autovoter services you can use if you prefer.
