Steem Basic Income - Program Announcements

in basicincome •  7 years ago 

Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content.

Delegation Bonus Shares Increased

After closely reviewing the impact that bonus shares from delegation have on our program, we have decided to increase the bonus shares that members receive for delegation!

Existing members can receive bonus shares from delegation. For every 20 SP delegated to @steembasicincome, members will receive 1 bonus share. These bonus shares will be removed if the delegation is withdrawn. Currently each share in pool 1 receives a weekly voting weight of roughly 2.37%.

If you would like to see how your bonus shares fit into your overall reward, it is provided in our new member tracking sheet. A full explanation is given here:
https://steemit.com/basicincome/@steembasicincome/steem-basic-income-membership-update-pulling-back-the-screen

Any Steemian that is already enrolled in @steembasicincome can delegate as much as they would like, to receive bonus shares. If you are not already a member but would like to delegate, please send an enrollment transaction to @steembasicincome and we will add your bonus shares at the time we process your enrollment.

We appreciate the members that take us up on this!

Let's look briefly at our current delegation sources for pool 1 (all of the delegation for lower pools is leased). The bonus shares shown below are in addition to the total shares in the tables or lists that follow.

The Daily Sneak Curation Trail

We would also like to announce a new collaboration with The Daily Sneak. They provide a daily curation digest that highlights a handful of quality articles, and many of our members have been sponsored by them. The program is run by @josephsavage, who is also the founder and program manager of Steem Basic Income.

The Daily Sneak has launched a curation trail on SteemAuto! Your follow will support the quality content creators that are highlighted in The Daily Sneak. It will also regularly upvote the updates on @steembasicincome, for bonus upvote weight! Instead of merely auto-voting @steembasicincome, consider following the @sneakyninja curation trail on SteemAuto!

As an added benefit, @josephsavage will sponsor every Steemian that signs up to the trail for 1 share in Steem Basic Income. This will be added to any shares that you already have! We hope that members will see the benefit of this new service that builds the synergy between these related programs! And don't forget you can always submit your own curation to The Daily Sneak for a nice payout if your submission is published!

Steem Basic Income Enrollment

Sounds intriguing... How do I sign up?

Send 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome. Include the name of a Steemian to sponsor in the comments. You and the person you sponsor will each receive 1 share in the program.

Questions?

We broke down the mechanics for how the program works in the newly updated complete overview. If you still have any questions, ask away in the comments section!

@steembasicincome after becoming a member, is there a way for me to sponsor more people? For example send an extra 1 SBD and nominate two members?

You can continue sponsoring as many people as you have the STEEM for. Each time it is 1 STEEM for each person you sponsor. For each 1 STEEM, both you and the person you sponsor will receive 1 share.

Thank you to the initial followers!

Enrollment transactions have been sent:

They will be included in today's batch. We're going on the honor system (that followers will continue to follow and not detach as soon as they get their shares). If that proves to be misguided, we will assign bonus shares to members for the duration of their follow, instead.

Just followed the trail! Thanks for the headsup!

Awesome! We'll give it a little time and then submit everyone's reward shares to be processed in tomorrow's enrollment batch!

@mstafford your account is not upvoting with the trail. Do you have a delay in place?

I have the trail currently set up like this:

Should work, yeah?

EDIT: FWIW -- I jsut manually voted for The Daily Sneak

Okay, I think that it's because your voting power is below 60%. I will give you credit for it.

Hey @josephsavage -- I just checked my steemauto settings -- seems like I had it set to 70% min VP for voting power. I've changed it to 60%. I should be participating in the trail now. Sorry for the kerfuffle.

You're welcome to set it higher so that you give better upvotes when you vote.

I figured that might be it. I keep meaning to let it recharge, but then I get all clicky. I"ll be hands off as of now until it's back to 100%

hmmm.. let me check. I'm pretty new to steemauto.

I delegated 40 SP, I really like the concept of Basic Income.

I wasn't sure, be when I enroll yesterday sending 1 Steem, both me and my friend got enrolled?

What is the value for SBI to give a 2 for 1 deal?

Your transaction will be processed in today's batch, and your bonus shares from delegation will be processed at the same time.

What is the value for SBI to give a 2 for 1 deal?

Do you mean what value do you get from it, or why do we do it this way?

Why you do it that way?
To encourage more people to discover the SBI?

Thanks

The main reason is to keep SBI structured as a program that you use to support other content creators that you believe in. It also helps the word-of-mouth spread more quickly and encourages people to give SBI shares as contest prizes (since you get shares when you sponsor others).
As a social experiment, we would like to bring a sustainable basic income to everyone on Steem.

That a noble goal, will see how it goes over time ;)

Yes, only time will tell.

Hi @josephsavage ! How are you doing? Today I think I'll start a contest with SBI shares for price .. do you have a banner that I can use in my article? Contest apart, I would like to insert it in general in my posts so to spread the basic income gospel 😏

We have a banner that was designed for our profile, but not one that was designed for use in posts. You're welcome to use our logo in your posts. it's the giant image from this post, but you're welcome to resize it as necessary.

I think I will create it by putting the wording in the center and two logos one per side .. thanks 👍

I do have a designer working on this soon (the one that won the banner contest for the profile page) if you don't mind waiting.

sure!

It gave a new meaning to the word "cool". Thanks will add it to all' my articles!

This sounds like a great opportunity for Steemians that have extra SBD to delegate. Free Shares. 😎

Bonus shares, yes! The difference between those and regular shares is that regular shares are forever. Bonus shares last for as long as the delegation is in effect.

I still feel kinda lost here. Sorry

FAQ should be coming out later this week.

The key thing to know is the enrollment process:
Send 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome. Include the name of a steemian you would like to support in the transaction memo. Both of you will receive upvotes on your future posts from one of the program accounts.

Hi! I joined Steemauto and joined the Daily Sneak Curation Trail on 2/27. I just found out that it totally drained my voting power so I am going to disable this. So, please remove my 1-SBI share. Thank you!

I'm sorry to hear that it drained your voting power. You can still keep your SBI share, though!

Are you sure? I will certainly understand if it is removed. I LOVE SBI and after I get my slide bar (which will hopefully be soon), I am going to sponsor people like crazy. And delegate when I can in the future. Thanks so much...for everything! : )

No need to remove it.

Thank you for your generosity! I won't forget it! : )

I am so excited about this kind of basic income! i just paid my first 1SBD to share the supply! i also wrote an article about passive and basic income in english and german in which i am promoting @steembasicincome! https://steemit.com/steemit/@markusmichael/uebersicht-ueber-passives-einkommen-durch-blockchain-technologie-deu-or-eng-overview-to-passive-income-via-blockchain-technology

Resteeemd. Welcome to the family!

When we buy another share, we get 2x more upvotes ?

You receive weekly voting weight based on the number of shares that you have, so increasing your shares will increase the value of upvotes that you receive.

Hello, is there a bonus when we upvote your posts ?

Yes, you receive a bonus for upvoting our posts and comments.

Hi! I just followed the trail. Thank you! : )

too cool! i just signed up to follow the trail as well!

thanks also @steembasicincome
I always upvote you.
maybe my upvote is not useful for legendary steemit ..
hehe :)

All upvotes are useful as they add up.

Do you know how to check your voting power?

You just planted 1.99 tree(s)!
