Why Do I Have Steem Power in Parentheses?

I'm new to Steemit, and I'm loving it. But I can't help but see that I have a certain amount of Steem Power and then below it, I have another amount in parentheses. My guess is this will be added to the top amount after the initial 7 days are over and then I will just have one amount. 

Can anyone affirm that this is correct? 

Thank you much people!

I have this same question! When you scroll over it it says "steam power delegated to this account" but I don't exactly know what that means. Perhaps you are right in that the amount will be added to the total after waiting period. Please let me know if you find the answer!

$0.17

It's delegated steem power from whales. They give you a certain amount of steem power for a while that let's your vote weigh more. It's only initial though.

I've never had sp in parentheses but ever wondered why someone have it...

Nope. I think it's for people just starting out to be able give them more voting power but it's not theirs to change out to steem.
