What is PoB?
PoB, Proof of Brain is the composition of the reward pool, Steem power and amount of knowledge users contribute to the community. The reward pool is 65% of the total and is given to content creaters and curators for putting up quality and valuable post to the community. This percentage is shared between the author and the curator equally.
What does curation mean to you in Steem Blockchain?
Content curation is a process that goes beyond just voting. Curation is reading a post, identifying if it is void of plagiarism that is its originality, the contribution of the post or the post’s value to the community, vote and resteem or share the post to reach a large audience. Rewards (vote) is just an incentive to content creators and it is to promote originality and valued content creation in the community.
What is the Benefits of building up of SP?
Steem Power (SP) is simply influence power. The more SP one holds, the greater influence he has. It is a good thing to build and have a higher Steem power because of the benefits it comes with it. One benefit is higher rewards. The reward scheme gives priority to users who have higher SP. Another benefit is that, building SP helps to build the community and users with higher SP can support new users who join the community.
High SP holders also benefit from Tronx. Tronx has been integrated to the Steem wallet and the Tronx rewards is directly proportional to the size of SP where 1TRX = 1SP, meaning the more SP you have, the more Tronx you get.
High SP holders also have influence in the community so they tend to gain a large follower base.
How do you explain self-upvote as a good or bad behavior and why?
An upvote is supporting a post when you hit the upvote button and a reward from the reward pool is attributed to the post. Self-upvote is when a person upvotes his own post. Self-upvote is a bad behavior in the sense that, firstly self-upvote means you reward yourself for your own content and in so doing you don’t necessarily evaluate and see if the post is valuable. Self-upvote also does not add any value to the Steemit platform, it doesn’t encourage better content discovery because users upvote their own post without taking into consideration its quality or value.
