Hi DSound tribe! :)

OMG! We achieved more than 150K SP delegations! DSound Love Machine's heart is now beating faster than ever and we're getting ready to start the engines during next week...

Get ready for the DSound Love Machine

DSound is all about spreading love within one of the largest music and sound creator communities in Steem - so the new curation engine that we are developing has been named DSound Love Machine! :)

If you want to know more about it, please refer to this post:
DSound Community Update: Get ready for DSound Love Machine!

There you can find all information about this new curation engine.

DSound Love Machine will soon start payouts to delegators, so if you find a transfer from the @dsound.gain account - you know where it came from... ;)

Thank you for your delegations!

In the name of the DSound Tribe, one of the largest and strongest communities on Steem, we thank all our delegators that helped us get to this amazing 150K SP mark! We know you all came for the love of music and sound content, so a big shout out to all of you! :)

DSound Tribe and the music community on Steem is huge and really deserves this!

But if you missed the boat, don't be mad... You can always delegate and get rewards from your investment. Anyone delegating to @dsound will get weekly payouts! :)

The ones that made it to one of the exclusive delegator programs below will have some advantages, that's all. ;)

That's our way of loving back for their unconditional love!

You don't have to have millions - actually we prefer to have 10,000 minnows who delegate 100 SP than a single whale that delegates 1,000,000 SP - and we know you understand why! :D

Exclusive delegator programs

In order to properly repay the love, we have created two exclusive membership programs with many benefits for our delegators...

DSound Lovers

The two weeks ago snapshot of our delegators was closed this midnight and our final DSound Lovers have been identified!

DSound Lovers were the ones that were auto-motivated to delegate to @dsound - specially after Steemit Inc removed their delegation - in order to sponsor our community.

We truly believe these guys are amazing and so deserve to have an incentive for their help.
After all, even when the DSound team was caught by surprise with the delegation removal and that full development of the platform would take little while longer - they were the bold supporters that jumped in and helped us out!

These will from now on be the very exclusive group of DSound Lovers, representing the top ones that took the leap-of-faith to help the community through these difficult times.

Being a member of the DSound Lovers means you will have many benefits, including:

• Up to 100% increase in weight calculation for payouts for the delegation
• Up to 50% increase in weight calculation for post voting
• Exclusive benefits in the future (TBA)

DSound Early Birds

This midnight's snapshot of our delegators closed our DSound Early Birds program and its final members have been identified!

DSound Early Birds were the ones that were able to promptly show their support, by delegating to @dsound in order to sponsor our community.

We truly believe these guys are also amazing and so deserve to have an incentive for their help, as they were able to jump in when we asked them!

These will from now on be the very exclusive group of DSound Early Birds, representing the ones that took the chance and came to help the community through these difficult times.

Being a DSound Early Birds member means you will have access to many benefits, including:

• Up to 50% increase in weight calculation for payouts for the delegation
• Up to 25% increase in weight calculation for post voting
• Exclusive benefits in the future (TBA)

Important notes

• All calculations will take into account many parameters, in order to identify and rank the effort and level of involvement of each member.

• Both DSound Lovers and Early Birds are exclusive membership programs that will NOT admit any more members!

• Members of each program will maintain their status and benefits for as long as they keep their delegation or they decide to increase it.

• Should they decide to decrease or remove the delegation - they will lose their membership and benefits of their respective "club" - even if in the future they decide to re-delegate to DSound.

Ready to delegate and generate some passive income?

Please consider delegating to @dsound account and get weekly payouts for your investment! :)

Please share with all the people you know that might be interested in making some money by helping our community!

We all win when new members join our delegation effort, and our tribe deserves it...

Please click one of the links below to delegate to @dsound using SteemConnect:

10 SP	1,000 SP	100,000 SP
50 SP	5,000 SP	200,000 SP
100 SP	10,000 SP	300,000 SP
200 SP	20,000 SP	400,000 SP
300 SP	30,000 SP	500,000 SP
500 SP	50,000 SP	1,000,000 SP

If you want to know more about delegations and what they mean, you can find all the information in this video of our fellow Steemian @brandonfrye:

Note: Since HF20 (the Steem version 0.20.x) the cool down period has been shortened to 5 days instead of the 7 days mentioned in the video...

Roadmap

• Implement DSound Love Machine initial engine and start spreading love
• Make an official public call for delegators to @dsound
• Select an initial pool of DSound curators
• Get the curation team up and running, for that they can work on selecting the DSound Love Machine challenge
• Incorporate DSound verified creator on DSound dapp, so that these accounts appear with a "check" mark next to their user name
• Continue to develop the DSound Love Machine engine to support all features, while having it running for testing
• Fine tune the weight parameters and finalize the bid market

The first version is being tested and until the end of the month will be starting to operate, so please expect some changes in the percentages of vote and maybe some downtime on the engine while upgrading...

We are so excited with this new curation engine being developed! It will start with a minor set of features, but will support post promotion and many other things already, get ready for DSound Love Machine! ;)

But, still don't know what DSound is?

It's ok... You are at the right place!

Let's share what it is with you right now...

What is DSound?

DSound is a decentralized web application that allows anyone to upload, listen and discover music and other sounds stored on top of the IPFS Network.

It uses STEEM blockchain as a persistent database, so by posting their sounds the authors can earn rewards in cryptocurrency, when other users like their content, which can be exchanged easily to US Dollars, Euros or any other currency, with a look and feel very similar to Soundcloud.

Check DSound Intro post for more details

DSound Discord Server (the tribe is connected)

If you're learning about DSound now or you didn't connect yet, please join our Discord server at:

https://discord.gg/hSsBw3b

If you need any help, please chat with our moderators who have done a great job in making this server a great place to hang out! Also check their work on DSound since they are content creators as well:
