Endless problems it seems occuring across the system for lack of bandwidth.

A friend just told me from seeing the notice on steemd.com that the bandwidth recharge would take 23Hrs 46min, THIRTY MINUTES LATER it was 192HRS !! to wait for before it would be recharged.

Something has gone wildly wrong with the blockchain

You can check your bandwidth & voting power of steemd.com/@YOURUSERNAME

It appears unless you have over 500SP !! in your account, post or comment a few times (especially during peak usage periods ie when the USA is on line) and suddenly the juice will stop. You will not be able to interact.

Already the #bitcoin crash has the cryptocurrency market running scared PLUS the latest Wall St Dow Jones dive and don't expect the price of Steem to rocket anytime soon and punters scramble for the fire exits looking for safe havens.

If serious money is not invested immediately into improving blockchain capacity exponentially, success will strangle and kill Steemit for the wider public who don't have 500SP or more, nor will invest to buy STEEM POWER
