STEMGeeks is a Steem community focused on STEM content.
What is STEMGeeks?
STEMGeeks is a community focused on STEM topics rewarding engagement with STEM tokens. STEMGeeks is powered by the Steem blockchain with it's own distribution model for STEM tokens in addition to the potential STEEM tokens.
What is a Tribe?
@aggroed's post is probably the best place to learn what a tribe is.
A tribe is a Steem community around a SMT-like token with it's own distribution model. Think of it as if SMT & Communities were available today.
What is STEM?
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Math and includes a wide range of science and technology topics.
When should I use the #STEM tag?
Primarily for posts that focus on science, facts, and reason backed by data or solid hypotheses about the world around us. At its core, this is a community to facilitate the means of developing skills that explore scientific decisions, critical thinking about evidence and facts.
- Science
- Space Exploration
- Gadgets
- Technology Innovations
- Blockchain Technology
- Programming & Development
- Mathematics
- Artificial Intelligence
- Machine Learning
- Maker (i.e. Raspberry Pi & Arduino)
- 3D Printing
- Mobile Phone Technology
- Medical Advances
- Robotics
The main idea of STEMGeeks is to provide technology & science-focused community with a niche wide enough you could live here but not wide enough to see $100 cat photos.
STEM Airdrop
The token is STEM listed on the Steem Engine market.
We are airdropping around 500,000 STEM tokens to the Steem community. There were a few decisions on how to do the airdrop but it primarily comes down to staked PAL tokens and SteemSTEM members as most clever ideas yielded poor results.
330,625 tokens will be airdropped, this will reach 1,710 users.
We will do an additional airdrop to STEEMSTEM team members, curators, and recent curated content. This accounts for 15,500 additional STEM tokens.
The remaining 153,874 airdrop STEM tokens will be airdropped on a case by case basis.
Initial Supply
The initial supply of STEM will be 10M tokens.
- Air Drop: 500,000 STEM
- Anti-Abuse: 1,000,000 STEM
- STEM Team: 2,000,000 STEM
- Community Bounties: 4,000,000 STEM
- Sell Wall: 2,500,000 STEM
Initially, we are airdropping up to 500 STEM tokens to most users with at least 10 Pal tokens staked. We are reserving the rest of the initial 500,000 STEM to handle one-off cases and individual airdrops up to the 500 STEM limit.
1,000,000 STEM has been issued to the account @nostem4u for abuse prevention. This was immediately powered up and will never be sold on the market or OTC. If for any reason this stake is no longer needed, it will be burned.
The STEM team has a pool of 2,000,000 STEM tokens. Some of this will be staked and used for curation on the @stemcuration account.
STEM token will be issued to @stembounties account and used for contest rewards, engagement incentives, and prizes. There will be many opportunities to earn STEM tokens through contests and engagement. The initial bounty supply will be used over the first five years or more.
We will add a 2,500,000 STEM sell wall at 2 Steem.
There are no plans to manually issue any STEM tokens outside of the 10,000,000 initial supply.
All other STEM tokens will be created from two inflation pools.
- Proof of Brain: 80%
- Mining: 20%
The calculated inflation rate is initially 8.41% which will be around 840,690 STEM tokens in the first year and dropping 3% each year until it hits around 2%.
In the first year around 672,000 STEM tokens (80%) will be rewarded from the reward pool for authors and curators. Around 168,000 STEM tokens (20%) will be rewarded to users who have staked STEMM miner tokens.
Creating content for the STEMGeeks community.
You can use our front end interface to post to the STEMGeeks community or you can use any interface you like and use the STEM tag.
Any content using the STEM tag has the potential to earn STEM token rewards.
Full Steempeak integration will be available shortly. Follow @stemgeeks for updates.
Staking/Unstaking
Like Steem, you need to stake your STEM tokens to influence the reward pool distribution and earn curation rewards.
Unstaking takes 30 days over 5 transactions.
Some bounty rewards will be only available to users with STEM tokens staked.
Abuse
We will respond to abuse swift and firmly. We have powered up a nuclear option on the account @nostem4u with 1,000,000 STEM. This account will never upvote and will only be used in extreme cases.
@nostem4u will be used to remove STEM rewards from content that is improperly tags, plagarism, and personal harassment that gets to the point it is impacting the community. We have a zero tolerance for these activities and our response will be firm and swift.
We have no plans on using this account outside of these situations and ideally the account will remain idle 99.99% of the time.
If for whatever reason this account is powered down and the stake will not be used in an anti-abuse scenario, we will burn the stake.
It will never be sold on or off the market and is only used for preventing abuse.
Mining
The STEMGeeks community has a mining pool that will account for 20% of the inflation. STEM Miner tokens STEMM are available on the Steem-Engine market that represents virtual miners.
There are 20 mining slots per hour. Every staked miner has an equal opportunity to win the tokens in that slot. For the first year mining rewards will be 19.2 STEM per hour.
STEM Miners will be sold for 10 Steem and will increase regularly during the first 30 days and settle at 30 Steem.
Like the STEM token, STEM Miners take 30 days to unstake over 5 transactions.
You need to stake your STEMM tokens to be eligible for mining rewards.
Reward Pool
The reward pool will mint around 840,000 STEM tokens in the first year. Rewards will be distributed 50% to authors and 50% to curators with a slightly superlinear curve.
Payouts will be similar to Steem and will happen after 7 days.
Users have the ability to use one full 100% downvote daily without impacting their ability to upvote content.

I make no promises STEM or STEMM will be worth anything now or in the future. The price is up to what that market believes it is worth.

I was given a list of SteemSTEM Leads, PR, Curators.
I scanned the blockchain for anyone that was curated with a 65% or greater upvote in the last 3 months which represents better than average content and added them to the airdrop as well.
Some received double or triple airdrops if they were on multiple lists.
I got a list of the honorary members and have airdropped them personally.

I think the idea is great but we already have a Stem community, if this is no cooperation...then how far will there be cooperation? Let's be clear a tag does not make an article scientific or good researched. Communities like steemStem need authors. So will it be possible to use both tags and how will this affect the curation? (@lemouth, @stemgeeks)
If your really scientific you should both know that community splits harm a network. If you end up with two small subnetworks you have possibly quartered the value of the current STEM community on Steem. We are at a vulnerable state where we need union more than ever. Tribes are great if you are a hundred million MAU network, Steemit so far has about 3000 daily active users and 17k MAU, let's keep them a community.

SteemStem almost completely science-focused, we are not.
I am in discussions with SteemSTEM though as I see their contributions valuable and don't see them as competition or "us or them".
This is not a community split, it's empowering a subset of the larger community much like how communities are planned by Steemit Inc.
/r/science on Reddit doesn't harm Reddit but empowers users who want to talk about science without having to see what you had for lunch yesterday.

It is standard to reserve a portion for the team. Right now it is just @themarkymark but that may change down the road.
@steemstem as far I can see is more focused on Science, the idea I had was to support the entire breadth of STEM and have a place to talk about Technology as much as Science. Where talking about computer building, Raspberry Pi hacking, development all fits equally. I wanted a fairly wide niche but not a general-purpose community like Pal/Neoxian.
As for what will be done, I haven't gotten that far. I have no idea if there will be much sold at all. If there is, I will start thinking that far. As far as onboarding, my initial thought is I don't even need stemgeeks.net because @steempeak is so much better, but I felt it would be used by experienced users and having a dedicated stemgeeks.net is a much better vehicle for onboarding. So it is something I am thinking about.

This is incorrect. We curate all STEM tags, but the miche of authors in each of them is different, varies over time and we have our standards. If the standards are not met, no support :)

Do you know what STEM means? How can you say that steemSTEM only focuses on science and not technology? hahahaha you do not even know what you say! LOL

He said their focus, not what STEM means.
STEM is a big and very popular topic, encompassing many different aspects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics... pretty sure more than one group focusing on it, and attracting the audience for it, is a good thing.
Imagine if we could create a place where schools teaching STEM could use? That’s pretty special.
SteemStem has lots of support and I don’t think they are going anywhere 😉 Maybe different standards and attracting more of the STEM community could be beneficial.

Do you think that this SteemSTEM will not go anywhere? :P LOL @justineh. Do you think that this system will not go anywhere? : P, I think you do not have the slightest idea of what the SteemSTEM project has been doing for 3 years. The reason that our standards are high, is because we do not want to fill the block chain with trash and create a serious place where all people can have fun talking and writing about science. ;)

STEM is not just “Science” btw, you guys keep saying that and you are missing 3 other very important aspects to the initiative. So if SteemStem focuses on Science, awesome.. looks like this StemGeeks project is focusing on ALL aspects of the STEM initiative.

Hi @justineh. Just to clarify (once again, but I think it is necessary to make things clear). We do not solely focus on science, but on all STEM fields. All.
What we actually support depends on several aspects:
Our goal is really to bring STEM people (working on STEM) to communicate on Steem about what they do. This is different than bringing people who like STEM and may repeat what they find elsewhere on Steem.
IMO, the SteemSTEM goal can bring value to Steem. This goal is on the long term side, in particular as we need a product to attract them. And for now we do not have such a product. We are lacking a dev to design it as fast as it should.
Now saying that we are not going anywhere is very rude and not really constructive. Do you mind clarifying? Also, we are happy to listen to people who can help us. But again, saying "we are not going anywhere" is not very helpful... I can really feel some bad sentiments against us in your answer, and I would like to understand why. Have we done something that hurt you?
Finally, mentioning that we have a lot of support is probably very misleading. We have some support, this is true. But this is by far not what could be called a lot. This support for instance does not allow us to hire a dev, which is what we need most at the moment. Therefore, we do things ourselves. But this is slow.
That is an interesting thing and maybe @mobbs may want to comment this on. On my side, I ask you: what could this place be? Please tell me why, as a STEM teacher, I should come to Steem? I believe that if STEM workers are around, this could make the difference (wrt all other existing options).
This being said, I am currently developing a curation tool for SteemSTEM that will have to focus and find community members more easily (especially as @themarkymark trigs something in me). But this will take some time (most probably a coupel of weeks). As I said, I am not a dev and only become one because we had no one to play that role.
PS: It is a long text and I apologize for that. This is also probably a discussion to have face to face (i.e. through a chat). Feel free to drop me a message if you want to continue discussing. We are sharing many common servers ;)

The term not going anywhere typically means it will be around for a long time. It is not a negative response but a positive.

Science encompasses a very broad group from physics, chemistry, mathematics, to social sciences and education

Oh i see, you are editing after and a part of SteemStem so you see this project as a threat.
Pretty sure SteemStem didn’t invent the STEM idea and different projects are always great.
I’m very aware of what SteemStem has been doing the last three years and am excited for this new project to the Steem ecosystem.
