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.

Sustainability Coverage and VP Management

Sustainability Coverage is currently at 86.51% and rshares reward rate is 692,096,243 per SBI unit per day.
The rshares reward rate for bonus units (delegation reward) is not decreased, and you can help increase the sustainability coverage (and thus the rshares reward rate on regular units) by delegating to @steembasicincome.
For more information, please read Into the Heart of Sustainability.

Upvoting Reward multipliers are currently at 1.34x on regular updates and 1.18x on secondary accounts and comments.

Enhanced Votes Graph

We last published this graph that 'maps' the interrelationships in our member pool eight days ago. Here is our graph and analysis from last time we published it:

And here is the graph from this week:

_{(img source http://www.steemreports.com/votes-graph-enhanced/?accounts=steembasicincome)}

It only shows people that regularly upvote each other or @steembasicincome, or have high subscription levels for regular upvotes that are too big for our smaller voting accounts to deliver. That makes sense, because we have over 5800 active members that are voted by ten different accounts. All of those interrelationships would be too much for this chart.

I always enjoy comparing the previous graph to the new graph. I like to see what fresh faces appear, along with take note of who disappeared.

Member spotlight: @nuthman

Recently we started seeing more support from @nuthman. A creative type out of Los Angeles, he serves as a good demonstration of upvoting rewards. He only has a 51 unit subscription level, but his upvoting rewards result in consistent enough votes for him to appear in our Enhanced Graph. In addition, we have quite a few voting accounts showing in his Enhanced Graph.
This is a fairly typical graph for a normal Steemian, going about their business, using SBI and other services to enhance their Steem experience.

Enrollment

If you want to get involved, 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 unit in the program. You can sponsor any active Steemian (except for yourself), it does not have to be a current member.

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

The official currency for enrollment is STEEM. If we choose to accept SBD without refunding it, you do not receive extra value for it.

Enrollments are processed automatically every 144 minutes. Confirmation transactions are still 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 in any post or comment.

Questions?

Please read our FAQ. If you still have questions, ask in the comments section or join us in our discord channel.

You can look up your current membership levels by using !sbi status in a comment or post, or by using our newly modified member lookup tool.
