The Prize
The prize will be 50% of the HBD rewarded to this post invested as SBI (see @steembasicincome for a rundown).
What I intended to do with this account was to invest all HBD at a 100% SBI with the contest winners, which would be to grow the rewards provided in the contest, to introduce Hivers to SBI, and to help grow the winners' accounts.
However, I'm planning to go to Def Con this year (see DEFCON29 LOCKED AND LOADED), so half of the HBD I had intended to use to for SBI is instead going to sent over to my main for the trip. This should stop in August and return to the original plan.
Don't be concerned with the obvious disconnect between HBD and SBI. SBI was originated on Steemit, and brought here after the @justinccp fiasco.
The Subject
There were no entries for last week, so I am rolling the subject over. I want an essay on memes; what are they, how they work, why are they important to infomationwar. The winning entry will most likely sound like a lesson taught by an experienced memer to instruct a novice how to create memes.
