Who Wants An SBI Unit?steemCreated with Sketch.

in steembasicincome •  5 years ago 

In various posts and comments I’ve mentioned how much I like the fact that when you’re buying #steembasicincome units by default you’re helping to strengthen Steemlandia’s ecosystem because you’re simultaneously buying units for yourself and for others.

I will sponsor a #steembasicincome unit for anyone who posts a non-trivial comment below prior to this post’s payout.

Keep in mind that this will work best for those who already have some SBI units. Given dust limitations, one SBI unit all by itself isn’t all that useful. But I guess it’s a start.

Some Caveats

I reserve the right to be arbitrary and capricious.

If you and your 82 alt accounts all post comments, don’t expect to get 83 SBI units.

As of posting this, I have about 13 liquid Steem in my account, and that might go up or down by the time of this post’s payout. If 500 people post comments, well, we’ll have a problem. I guess I’d do something like use an online random number generator to choose who gets the units. Or maybe just get some of the units right away and others later. But given how quiet it’s seemed around here lately, this might well not be a problem.

So, who wants an SBI unit?

Say what you will about the Steem(it) soap opera of the last few months, but I firmly believe that those earning and/or buying SP now will be very happy that they did so in the years to come.

THIS. I also notice some people are starting to not even bother responding to comments to their blog posts anymore, which is a shame, because people generally don't bother making comments again if they get no response from their initial try at engagement.

Yes indeed, it will be very interesting to see how many people (and their alt accounts) take you up on your offer. Speaking of drama, I missed what the issue was, but I caught wind of some drama around SBI a few weeks ago. Do you know what that was about? I completely agree — this is an excellent buying opportunity for Steem and I think We will see the value start to climb measurably in 2020. Of course I am not an analyst, don’t have a crystal ball, and am not providing suggestions or advice. But I believe all the right factors are coming together nicely.

There was a big account downvoting posts that had been upvoted by SBI bots. Seems to have died down though.

Ha ha! I had no idea there was a drama token! Is that for letting people know they are fanning the flames of drama?

Greetings. I still get some small accounts downvotes. I am assuming they are related to the SBI issue. They are non-posting accounts. They may not be hurting my rewards, but still.
Wish you a great downvote-free year, everybody.

Ha, why am i beneficiary on this post? :-) No need but probably first time in my steem history so it has a 1st time charm, thanks :-)

I really like steem basic income, I'm glad the downvoting behaviour has stopped. I'd like to put forward @phoenixwren to receive any sbi shares going - an account that works tirelessly to promote good things and fun. Also, if anyone would like to donate to his first aid supplies project, that would be good, too.

Thank you! You're always so supportive, and I appreciate you so much. :)

It's a two-way thing, you've kept me busy with lots of challenges and getting out into nature.

I'm glad if you enjoy my challenges! :)

Well what do you consider a non-trivial comment? I would be happy to get another SBI unit. A very supportive STEEMian one told me if you do not enter or try something you will never win. I entered a contest shortly after and received a 200SP delegation for several months which was a great boost.

When I first noticed SBI, I was confusing it with SPI, which I started 'collecting' a couple of months back. But then one recent Pun-day the punster in me awoke and I posted a punny pun about Christmas and won - 8 SBI! So now I am delightfully aware of the difference between SBI and SPI. Alas, awareness does not equate to understanding, so I guess I need to find an SBI-101 post to fully appreciate my good fortune.

Also, wouldn't steemleo be another good tag as SBI is investment related? Cheers!

I have not seen SBI posts as much anymore. I gather popularity of it is dwindling or like you mention bots taking over it with manipulating upvote? Anyways glad to still here it is around. Thanks.
