Over the next month or so, you are going to see a lot more about the 1UP system from myself and others. This is an addition to the STEEM blockchain that is really going to change some things. Essentially, it is a value added to the STEEM blockchain with no other purpose than providing additional rewards.
So how does 1UP and the Age of Abundance go together?
To start, this project is going to be a total DAO (decentralize autonomous organization). It is the brainchild of @flauwy yet he does not own it. In fact, he does not even want to run it. His vision is for this to truly be a community initiative. For the present, there is some structure in place to get the product released and have the different currency levels assigned.
For this reason, anyone who is interested in participating in this project or thinking up more ways that it can be of benefit to Steemians, simply post it below. We can meet up on discord to discuss different ideas. Basically, we are looking at a platform that we all are free to take and run with. Developing different ways to enhance the value to the STEEM ecosystem will benefit all of us.
Another aspect to this that aligns with the Age of Abundance is that 1UP exists only to enhance what people are doing. This is a project that increases payouts, nothing more. It truly is creating abundance since we are looking at furthering the reward pool via a new curation system. When this is released, people will get payouts in both STEEM and 1UP. There is no additional work required.
1UP is also a reverse system. The present curation trails tend to have the large accounts (the one with all the SP) vote first, followed by everyone else. This means the smaller accounts that upvote later tend to get very little. 1UP corrects this by reversing the order. When the upvote is triggered, it assembles the trail from smallest to largest. Hence, the large account ends up voting last, providing increased curation for all the smaller accounts ahead of it.
Remember, this is something that simply is on top of the usual upvote mechanism already on the STEEM blockchain.
Talk about creating something out of nothing. That is true Age of Abundance.
Those who read my articles know that the Age of Abundance is a multi-dimensional shift that is taking place. For this reason, there is a great deal more than just the physical/economic. However, since there is such energy tied to money, it emphasizes all that I am talking about.
1UP is a lesson in shift of vibration. Fear is the biggest weapon used against humanity; it is what keeps people enslaved. The fear associated with living in a system based upon scarcity puts out powerful vibrations that hinder progress. The fear paralyzes which enables those in power to freely operate without resistance. Ultimately, we are like crabs in a bucket, clawing at each other if one gets ahead of us.
Notice how differently you feel, energetically, as I describe 1UP. Picture getting paid additional rewards on your posts without having to do more work. In fact, to go one step further, imagine getting paid for curation that is increased due to the reverse payout system without having to do anything one you join the trail. The upvotes are automated along with the payouts. This is a nice passive income package.
This is the essence of abundance. The key is to feel the vibrations that go along with it.
And where did all this come from? It was an idea that one Steemian had. It is a way to add value to the STEEM ecosystem without taking anything away from anyone else. That is what excites me about 1UP: it epitomizes abundance.
This is the paradigm shift that cryto-economics causes. Can you imagine a company going to all the employees and saying "we are just going to add more rewards to your paycheck each week simply because we decided to"? Would they do this ongoing, for everyone? I find this idea completely unlikely.
The reason for this is because companies operate in the scarcity world. 1UP is operating in the abundance of crypto-economics.
Another valuable aspect of the 1UP system is that it is going through the different communities. This will enable the communities to have control over their rewards. This enhances the value of each community that is delegated 1UP currency. It also helps the communities to further enhance newer people, something that should help retention rates.
In the scarcity model, free money always comes with a twist. It is something that people cannot believe. 1UP shows that, in the crypto-economic world, free money is the norm. That is what this entire project is all about. It exists solely as a means to further reward people for activities they are already doing.
There is a move now to take this initiative even further. Since there is a disjointed association between the many communities that deal with the helping of humanity at the energetic/vibration level, we see the creation of a new tag along with community that is forming. This will serve to unite all those communities that seek to help people along in a conscious manner under one umbrella.
This, too, will be enhanced by the 1UP project.
Hopefully, everyone will get involved in the #tribevibes.

It is easy to get caught up in the greed and shenanigans that some people play. The cryptocurrency industry is leading the transformation. The challenge is that people still hold onto their old conditioning. This is something that is going to take some time to release. I wrote a few days ago about people being ready for the Age of Abundance. To enter it, we need to let go of a lot of things including our belief that we understand what is going on. The world around us was created in a way to distort our power. Instead, only a select few who understand it profit. The rest of us tend to suffer.
This is changing. Abundance is upon us. 1UP is a prime example of how scarcity in one currency can be enhanced by creating another on top of it. It also shows how a system with some flaws can be corrected by one individual with an idea.
Here we see a project that is open to anyway. Rewards are available to those who decide to take part and contribute. One does not need to be an insider or a big fish to participate. As long as you have dedication, some ideas, and a desire to change things, that is all that is required.
The paradigm shift becomes clearer each day. This is one of the main reasons why I am so optimistic about the STEEM blockchain. With initiatives such as 1UP, anyone who joins this ecosystem will end up being rewarded. There is no limit to what we can create on here.
And with fortune like this on our side, 1UP will be there to enhance everything that people create.
