Today I want to propose the unconditional basic income option for Steemit users.
The optional button which will share a certain amount with all accounts who also activate it.

Interesting idea. I wonder if steem could help create a guaranteed minimum income??

Where there is a will there is a way. Steem is, however, not run by people (the ones with lots of money) who like to give people basic income or charity. It's more the opposite - they let you die in the rain even though you ask for help. My hope lies on Smart Media Tokens and if that doesn't work we will make a new blockchain with Universal Basic Income

I know there is at least one coin with the intent for a basic income http://www.grantcoin.org/

They only pay 8 dollar a month as far as I heard. We need something with 3-5 dollar a day to cover food and drinking.

C'est la vie. I think around $10k per year in the US would be good outside of places like CA or NYC where everyone wants to live. The developing world could be much lower. Hopefully a minimum income would help equalize labor rates and realize a more competitive world where absent transportation costs equally productive work is paid equally.

I have been thinking about a possible solution with SMTs that may be able to fund a voluntarily financed guaranteed minimum income. If i finish a white paper or make a tangible document, would love to send it your way. Hopefully we will be free someday and all be able to make their lives into what they choose for themselves.

With cryptocurrencies we can essentially give people as much money as we want. The trick (probably not the best word) is to tie what we give to some measure of value adding. I think in terms of a place like steemit, it may not be fully unconditional, but instead very minimally conditional via adding some value to the community here (by voting, commenting etc). And important too is that the currency have some other values aside from minimal voting etc. So in the case of steem, the obvious alternative value may come when we get SMT's. But even simple investing growth based on the unique social network model here is an important source of value adding.
