It might surprise some people to know that I very much agree with this, despite running one of the bots many of these people delegate to. I always tell people that if they plan to be active on the platform they should keep their SP.
On the other hand if someone doesn't plan to be active (reading, voting, commenting, posting, etc.) and just wants to passively invest in Steem, then I do think delegating is a great opportunity and is probably one of the only draws to actually get passive investors into Steem right now.
Thanks Matt.
I'm not against delegating a 'spare' stake to where it's seen as fit, but like you say, keep a workable (all of max vote < dust imo) amount aside if you are active - or else your comments feed will quickly end up like your vote - need a dusty tumbleweed emoticon here.
There you go.....
Thanks very much, looks pretty dusty to me!
