Steem Basic Income
Steem Basic Income is a voluntaryist social experiment to bring a crowd-funded 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.
Hard Forks
Instead of delivering only 20% of your pending upvote balance in each upvote, we are delivering up to 33% in each upvote. For comment voting, we are raising from 4% per comment to 11%.
We are pairing this with an increase in our minimum upvote values, from $0.012 to $0.02 on posts and from $0.024 to $0.04 on comments. These changes counterbalance, resulting in choppier upvote values for members that post inconsistently, but result in less value being 'lost' to bad positioning on the CLRC curve.
Members interested in more dynamic value management can opt to have any post/comment skipped by including #sbi-skip
in the tags, saving their pending upvote value for posts that they expect to perform better. This 'balance saving' will be even more impactful with the increase in % of pending value delivered on each post.
Upvotes by Voting Account
Our automated system selects the highest VP account that can deliver the upvote value each time. If the full vote cannot be delivered by a single account, the post may be upvoted by several accounts. Only the rshares value actually voted is removed from the member's pending upvote balance.
In cases where 33% of pending vote balance is greater than the 100% maximum deliverable upvote from all ten voting accounts, the unvoted amount remains in pending upvote balance until eventual upvote delivery.
For more about how upvote delivery works, please read Value Balances and Upvote Delivery.
Outgoing Votes
This shows the total number of upvotes (without respect to size) delivered in the last week. 3321 total upvotes, 1565 accounts upvoted, 10 voting accounts! Over 50% of supported accounts have never sent any STEEM for enrollment. They were sponsored by other Steemians that support our vision of creating a crowd-funded voluntary basic income.
SCOT tokens
We have decided to simplify our SCOT tracking by consolidating all tokens into the new @sbi-tokens account which trails the other voting accounts. Here are the tokens currently staked on @sbi-tokens.
Token | Staked | VP |
---|---|---|
PAL ( #palnet ) | 1428.005 | 75.78% |
#MARLIANS | 98.927 | 84.46% |
#SPT | 10822.006 | 85.42% |
NEOXAG ( #neoxian ) | 271.576 | 87.12% |
GG ( #steemace ) | 1482.52 | 88.31% |
ZZAN ( #zzan ) | 63.287 | 89.37% |
#BATTLE | 418 | 91.33% |
SPORTS ( #sportstalk ) | 2764.845 | 91.59% |

#JAHM | 764.092 | 100% |
#AAA | 623.428 | 100% |
CCC ( #creativecoin ) | 597.703 | 100% |
#SONIC | 414.335 | 100% |
#STEM | 261.356 | 100% |
WEED ( #weedcash ) | 212.845 | 100% |
#BLQ | 123 | 100% |
#CTP | 46.899 | 100% |
#IV | 40.777 | 100% |
#TUNES | 31 | 100% |
#NGA | 31 | 100% |
#SCT | 15.574 | 100% |
We will continue to keep tokens staked on @sbi-booster as an added incentive for members to reach the 40 unit target that we believe provides the best user experience.
Enrollment
To enroll in Steem Basic Income, or to increase the level of basic income that you receive, enrollment is pretty straightforward:
Just send 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome. Include the name of a Steemian to sponsor in the transaction memo (preceded by @). You and the person you sponsor will each receive 1 share in the program. You can sponsor any active Steemian (excluding yourself), it does not have to be a current member. Multiples of 1 STEEM are also fine (e.g. 5 STEEM with one name means 5 SBI for each of you).
Increasing your subscription level results in more frequent upvotes until you are being upvoted on every post. Then it results in larger upvotes instead.
Please check out our full transaction memo guidelines and let us know if you have any questions.
https://steemit.com/basicincome/@steembasicincome/transaction-memo-guidelines
The official currency for enrollment is STEEM. We accept SBD at our discretion but you do not receive extra value or any partial refund for paying in SBD instead of STEEM. If we choose to accept an SBD enrollment, we accept the entire amount. If we choose to reject it, we refund the entire amount and request you to send STEEM instead. Enrollments are processed automatically every 144 minutes.

How do I include #sbi-skip in a Comment? Just writing it like here? Is there also a possibility to turn comment-voting off completely? Because of HF21 most of the Value would get lost there and its better for my postings, when they get higher upvotes instead of that.

It turns off automatically when you have a fresh post. Comment-voting is the fallback so that value is still delivered to less active members.
And yes, including it in your comment works just fine. Some people use `#sbi-skip at the end to make it small so it doesn't draw as much attention away from what they are saying.

@steembasicincome you guys (and anyone) can use this site to check out your vote VP for the different tribes and most importantly, change the vote multiplier for them.
You'll see a portion of the url
?a=USERNAME
which is where you change the account name (I've put in @sbi-tokens already, but do not use the '@' sign in the URL) and the end portion?t=TICKER
is where you can change the tribe you'd like to view (I've put PAL in to start)To change the vote weight multiplier, you want to find this section of the site:
![Screenshot 20190906 at 11.53.15.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/kharma.scribbles/g2jKkG5j-Screenshot202019-09-0620at2011.53.15.png)
which is near the bottom right. In this image, it is showing my current multiplier for my #neoxian votes. You will want to click on the 'vote weight multiplier' text, change it to the multiplier you want to use, then it will get you to sign the transaction, I use Steem Keychain for that.
For others who don't know, changing the vote weight multiplier will help to use up the VP on posts which use the applicable tag.. So if for example you don't vote on a lot of #creativecoin posts, you might want to change the muliplier to 5, or maybe even 10. See what works for you the best to keep a tribes VP more in line with your STEEM VP.
Since changing my multipliers, I hardly find my tribes VP idling around 100% anymore, it really helps to not waste tribe VP and also this site makes it easier to see/control the different tribes you use without the need to create alternative accounts for VP management of them.
Oh, and in the URL you can check multiple tribe VP at the same time by comma separating the tickers,
like
?t=PAL,CCC,NEOXAG
for example. However in that case the vote weight multiplier will be for changing the weight of the first tag you put in the URL (PAL in my example)Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

You should post your guides as posts on your own profile, and not as comments on our posts.
We already use the multipliers to target a VP level between 80 and 90% for each tribe.
