Steem Basic Income
Have you heard of @SteemBasicIncome? It's a 'social experiment' to give a basic income to Steemit users. All you have to do is to nominate you think someone who deserves extra votes by sending 1 Steem to that account with the users name, including the @. Then they get a vote on each of their posts. The bonus is that you get one too! And this is for life, or at least as they can keep running it. If you get or create multiple nominations then the vote you get goes up. It may only be a few cents each week, but it's an extra incentive to keep posting and those cents could be worth a lot more later on.
I've already got about 30 'shares', but I've built up some Steem and am adding a few more. It may take a day or two for them to kick in as they are manually assessed. Please don't ask me to do this for you as I will make my own judgement on who deserves it.
- @stav is an old friend. I did his nomination yesterday.
- @stahlberg is posting his Android Blues comic on Steemit.
- @arseniclullaby also draws comics that may make you laugh and/or just say 'eughhh'.
- @steemflagrewards are doing good work to deal with abuse of the Steem platform.
You can see the transfers in my wallet. The stav one is lower down. Too many spam messages in there.
Manna
You may see I mentioned Manna as well. This is another form of basic income using their own cryptocurrency. I came across it in the early days of Steemit through some posts by @lloyddavis who was giving to people who attended his events. It was previously called Grantcoin. To get it all you have to do is register at mannabase. Once your account is approved you will receive some Manna each week. It may just be a few cents, but that could build over the years. You earn more if you get referrals, which is what I'm doing here. Of course you should follow @mannacurrency on Steemit to learn more about what they do.
You can see I have quite a bit thanks to getting in early. I propose to give some away. I was trying to think of how to do this, but what I'll do is to give 100 Manna to each of the first 10 people to put their wallet address in a comment here from Monday if I can get to 40 referrals by next Saturday. I'm making an assumption that you can get approved in a couple of days, but if you can't then let me know. Of course people could just put their current addresses, but if I don't get the referrals they get nothing. This is a little experiment and I may have to adjust the parameters if it doesn't work out.
Of course I like getting paid for using Steemit, but I also see it as a way to help others.
Steem on!
