Steem Basic Income

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.

Oopsies!

This post was accidentally posted first from @sbi-booster account, but this is the one everybody reads the updates on, so here it is again.

Consistent Growth

We have ten voting accounts, so your upvotes could come from @steembasicincome, @sbi2, @sbi3, @sbi4, @sbi5, @sbi6, @sbi7, @sbi8, @sbi9 or @sbi10. The new system dynamically selects the best account to deliver your upvote at the time of upvote delivery.

We currently have 6121 members that have posted or commented within the last 28 days, and many more members that have not. There are currently 128443 units in the program, and it grows every day.

Upvotes by Voting Account

As each upvote is delivered by our newly automated system, it selects the highest VP account that can deliver the full scheduled upvote value. We are working toward creating a smooth VP curve between accounts that will eventually result in most accounts always getting their upvotes from the same 2 or 3 accounts.

This shows the total number of upvotes (without respect to size) delivered in the last week. The biggest boxes belong to members that have a high enough SBI subscription level to get regular upvotes that exceed the minimum threshold.

A more common way to look at voting distribution is by vote weight. This is more meaningful when broken up by account. We have started publishing these regularly for each voting account, and the report for @steembasicincome is published by @sbi-booster.

Enrollment

If you want to get involved 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.

If you're unclear, please check out our full transaction memo guidelines and let us know if you have any questions.

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. Confirmation transactions are manual and typically are sent within 2-3 days. Even if you have not received a welcome transaction, you can check your status using !sbi status.
