 Level nine or level 19. These are two different levels that we currently consider the meta in stepping whenever you get to either of these levels You're going to face a big decision because it's probably going to cost you a few days of earnings in order to upgrade for level 10 It is 30 GST and 30 GMT and for level 20. It is 60 GST and 60 GMT So in today's video, we're going to break down both of these levels and settle it once and for all Which one should you upgrade to level 9 or level 19? What's up guys? My name is Jay and welcome to Bitcoin daily when I first started with stepping I was just like you guys running around like a chicken with its head cut off Not knowing which way to go or what to do so after going through a bunch of data talking to a bunch of people and making a Ton of mistakes. I'm here to show you guys everything that I know so that you avoid doing all the mistakes that I made So let's go ahead and jump right into it So if you guys have watched my previous video stepping fastest return on an investment strategy Then you know that the fastest current ROI if you want to break even as fast as possible is if you buy a level 9 jogger Now remember, I'm only focusing on joggers as it's right in the middle It's the shoe most desired by the overall community So if you use runners, you could probably get to ROI even faster than that since they earn more and they're cheaper However, you will also remember that level 9 was probably the next best bang for your buck when buying a sneaker and the difference in amount of times to break even wasn't that far apart So the question became what level shoe should you start with a level 9 or a level 19? So of course, I broke all the numbers down for you guys. I like to Visualize it in an Excel spreadsheet. So in these two scenarios, we're going to assume that one person bought a level 9 sneaker The other person bought a level 19 sneaker I looked for sneakers as close to floor prices as possible with decent base stats So the level 9 is sitting around 14.35. The level 19 is sitting around 25 sole So if you divide it by GST, the current prices are 271 for the level 9 and 472 for the level 19. So the level 9 sneaker has 36 Efficiency it's earning 11.1 GST per day. The repair costs are at around 2.05 Which gives us a net daily earnings of 9.05 per day on the other side of things the level 19 has 72 efficiency 15.7 daily earnings per day minus the 2.4 repair costs puts it at 13.3 net daily earnings per day in GST So as these two are off to the races, you can see I highlighted Exactly where both of them hit the break even mark on the level 9 shoe. You're breaking even on day 30 where you hit 271.5 GST earn remember what we needed was 271.39 So we actually break into profit on that day on the other side of things it takes 36 days for the level 19 sneaker to break even you see that on day 36 We hit 478.8 and our break even price is 472.81 so what we did is just continued it for an extra 30 days just to see the gap between the both of them So on day 60, the level 9 sneaker had earned 543 GST overall while the level 19 sneaker had earned 798 GST overall So on day 60 the level 9 shoe actually doubles your investment So you make a 100% return profit on your upfront investment by day 60 on the level 9 shoe on the level 19 sneaker by day 60 You've made a 69% profit on your upfront investment So although the level 9 has a higher profit percentage by day 60 the level 19 clearly outperformed by day 60 as it Makes 47% more GST within the 60-day period So what this decision comes down to on your starting sneaker is whether or not you have the upfront capital to pretty much spend Around a thousand dollars more to get to a level 19 sneaker Versus starting at a level 9 sneaker because even though the level 9 gets you to ROI a lot faster The level 19 is not far behind So in this next example, we're gonna take a look at two different case scenarios now since level 9 sneakers are cheaper I think it's more common that a lot more people will end up starting there So if you're one of those guys that start at the level 9 sneaker now, there's another choice Do you level up with your earnings to level 19 or do you stay at level 9? So in this scenario, what we're doing is using the same sneaker But in one scenario, we're assuming there's no upgrades in the second scenario We're assuming that we're upgrading every time that we have the amount of GST Available from what we've earned so on the left we have the sneaker that we're not upgrading at all We're just cashing in until we hit break even and you can see that it takes exactly 30 days here on day 30 We're breaking even with our level 9 sneaker that we did not upgrade now If we take a look at the same scenario except now we're upgrading every time that we have the funds available You will see that it will take five days before we can get that level 10 upgrade because remember it's 30 GST and 30 GMT The next day we get up to 11 on days 8 9 and 10 We're able to hit 12 13 and 14 two weeks in we're able to hit level 17 And by the 17th day we're able to finally hit level 19 So basically on day 17 we're only at 4 GST earned Because we've spent everything else and on the same day on a level 9 sneaker. That's not upgrading They would have 153 GST earned so on day 30 when the level 9 sneaker hits break even We are still not at break even but we have stacked 176.9 GST by then And if we continue down you will see that only about a week later on day 38 We're able to finally break even on our investment So on the day that we break even the level 9 sneaker has 343.9 GST earned versus our 283.3 Now if we continue down to see how many days it actually takes before the level 19 sneaker overtakes the level 9 sneaker you will see that that happens on day 53 On day 53 the level 9 sneaker is at 479 while the level 19 upgraded sneaker is at 482 So by the day you hit the second month the level 19 sneaker has already taken off And you just continue down to the third month you will see the difference 814 GST versus 974.9 GST And that gap just continues to get bigger and bigger and bigger So again it comes down to how much of a difference does that extra week before getting your break even make to you How important is that to you? Because in the longer term level 19 is definitely better than staying at level 9 Now the scenario where that can change is if you're trying to get to maybe 3 sneakers as fast as possible Alright guys so this is the last scenario that we're going to do And this one we're going to be assuming that again we're starting off at 1 level 9 sneaker in both scenarios 1 level 9 is not going to upgrade and is only focusing on getting to 3 sneakers as fast as possible The second level 9 sneaker is going to upgrade all the way to level 19 And then try to get to 3 sneakers as fast as possible Now before I

examples are going to be at 286 vs 271 When we first started this video So this shows you how fast numbers can change Due to price fluctuations in the market These numbers will always be different from the time that I make this video to the time that you watch this video So this is just to give you a basic idea Alright so here we go So on the left side we're not upgrading at all We're keeping it level 9 and going straight for 3 shoes On the right side we're starting off at level 9 as well But we're upgrading to level 19 and then going to 3 shoes So as we start you can see right away the first one to hit a second sneaker Is indeed the level 9 that has not upgraded By day 32 he's hitting break even using that money to buy a second sneaker The second sneaker we're making sure that it has one mint only And we're assuming that the first sneaker has two mints Because two mints will be cheaper than one mint So next let's see what happens with the shoe on the right scenario that upgraded from 9 to 19 So you can see that not far after Actually only one week later on day 39 We're able to hit break even to get that second shoe with one mint on it So now both scenarios on day 39 We both have a two mint shoe and a one mint shoe Now what we're going to do is save up to mint the two shoes together And get that third shoe which gets us of course to 3 And doubles up our energy So now what we're going to do here to figure this out We're going to assume, I know that now we have a dynamic mint cost But we're going to just assume that the mint cost is 125 GST, 125 GMT So those two together brings the total of the mint cost in GST to 193.65 So that's the number that we're going to aim for So as we continue down You will see something very interesting indeed Both of the shoes are able to mint on the same day to get that third sneaker So on day 54, the level 9 shoe mints and gets its third sneaker And on day 54, the level 19 shoe mints and gets its third sneaker So now we update the earnings for that You can see that the level 9 with three sneakers now earning 18.1 per day While the level 19 with three sneakers is earning 26.6 per day Stretch that out until day 90 here Just so that we can get an idea of how big the gap becomes and how quickly You can see that by day nightly The level 9 three sneaker scenario has accumulated 651 GST While the level 19 three sneaker scenario has accumulated 957.6 GST Another crazy thing is that by day 90 the level 19 three sneaker scenario Has again outgained the level 9 sneaker by 47 percent So now to sum it up, if you're debating between a level 9 or level 19 to start You can see that days to break even is almost alike It's only basically a seven day one week difference And in the long term level 19 wins by a lot Now the only con about a level 19 is that it comes with a heftier price tag You might need to pay up maybe around $1,000 more than for a level 9 So if you don't have that extra thousand dollars You just want to start out at level 9 Then your next question will be Okay, should I just stay at level 9 and recoup my investment Or should I level up to level 19 and then recoup my investment So again when we broke it down It was about 30 days to recoup your investment on a level 9 If you did not upgrade and 38 days to recoup your investment If you did upgrade to level 19 By day 53 the level 19 sneaker surpasses the level 9 sneaker And by day 90 you can see that the level 19 sneaker is now far and beyond What the level 9 sneaker is making at that point So if you were to ask me should you level up or not For a seven day difference Yes, I am definitely going to be recommending to level up to level 19 One week is not really going to make much of a difference If you can survive a month I'm sure you can survive one extra week Then the final scenario, the final question is Should I just stay at level 9 and get to three sneakers as soon as possible Or should I get my level 9 sneaker upgraded up to level 19 And then get to three sneakers as soon as possible So looking at the numbers it will take you about 32 days to get your second sneaker And about 39 days to get your second sneaker on the level 19 So after running the numbers on the level 9 sneaker It will take you about 32 days to get to your second sneaker And on the level 9 that we upgrade to level 19 It will take you about 39 days to get to your second sneaker So again, it's only a seven day difference And then to get to our third sneaker which we are minting It takes both scenarios the same amount of time which is 54 days And then if you play it out for another month The scenario where you upgraded first to level 19 Before getting your three sneakers outperforms the scenario Where you just stayed at level 9 to get to three sneakers by 47% So again, the winner in this round is level 19 Now that I've run the numbers I don't think there's any reason for anyone to stay at level 9 The only reason to stay at level 9 is to get to break even as fast as possible But does a week really make a big difference to you? That's what you're going to have to decide So we've gone over all the numbers, we've gone over several different scenarios And the winner of this debate seems to be clear to me The winner between level 9 and level 19 is... Level 19 Leveling up to level 19 is by far the superior strategy Whether you start at level 19 or you buy at level 9 And upgrade as soon as possible to level 19 Then upgrade as soon as possible to three sneakers Level 19 wins time and time again Thank you so much for watching this video guys I hope you guys really enjoyed it I put a lot of time and effort into this Don't forget that on May 25th I am doing a live meetup event in Miami, Florida It is officially the first step in live event in the United States So I'm hoping to see all of you guys there and meet a bunch of you I've created some really sick t-shirts to give out We'll have music, refreshments, and we'll even be giving away some GST to a few lucky winners If you guys are new to stepping Don't forget to check all the other guides that I have created already for you guys If you click on playlist and click on the stepping guide playlist You will see every single guide that I have created for you guys right here This will literally take you from knowing nothing about stepping to being a stepping expert You won't know everything that I know If you still need an activation code, don't forget to go to the Twitter, BitcoinXDaily We are giving away activation codes every day Last week we gave away 13 activation codes This week we will be doing more of the same And if any of you guys want to donate your activation codes Just send me a DM with the activation codes so that we can give it away And last but not least, every Saturday morning we are now doing a step in community podcast We will be doing this on JamesWorks Twitch channel That's twitch.tv slash JamesWork We will be going live every Saturday morning around 10am EST Or after the end of the weekly AMAs So make sure to tune in and check us out there as well Alright guys, that's all I got for you today Thank you for tuning in I will see you guys on the next one As always, peace and love
