I agree 100% brotha! I remember $3 Steem and how little Steem that actually was on posts.. So like you said with Steem at $0.10 - $0.15 cents, each post even just a few dollars will still get you 10 - 20 Steem each or more! Which if you think of Steem at $10 (I also agree and even said yesterday seemed like an easy target for Steem, and this is not financial advice either just my own opinion) that is $100 - $200 per post!!
For the past year or so I had the same mindset, and like you mentioned I tried to get as many $1+ posts for this exact reason, because if I could earn just 10 Steem per day for a whole year and Steem went to $10 in theory I made $36,500 that year if I hodl!
However I still get a better roi myself by playing Splinterlands, and just with DEC I earn from battles I can get 10+ Steem per day! So for now I am super excited about Steem AND Splinterlands!! Especially with all of the new marketing on TMC! Exciting times for sure, and I’m glad you feel the same way I do about all of this! 🤘😝
