RE: Personal Finance Update: How I'm Setting Effective Financial Goals for 2018
Some people are saying it will reach 100 per sbd by the end of 2018, it would be so awesome lol, I guess I'll just have to keep at it
late response lol: Hmmm maybe but I would be careful with that. SBDs are supposed to be at $1 value, so whenever they get higher, the inflation rate goes up. Right now SBDs are being printed 50% faster than usual for example.
In theory, SBD should eventually go down. Of course I could be wrong... maybe I'm seeing it incorrectly. Either way - if you keep earning and holding steem you should have a good time :-)
So the way they peg it to the dollar is by either printing a lot or stop making them? Also, isn't that a bit dangerous, I've read a lot of criticism about Tether in that regard
Not exactly - every day the amount of rewards that Steem gives away is set in stone. But - they can give away more SBDs, or more steem, depending on external factors.
So the total amount of value does not change - but the amount of it rewarded as SBD or Steem Power varies. Right now it is 75% SBD and 25% SP, whereas in normal circumstances it is 50/50.
You have just answered a long time question I've had, I was wondering why I was getting so much more sbd as compared to sp, thanks!
