Here are the poems published to Blockchain Poets for the week of Dec 6–Dec 12. Let’s have a look at the poems then we will get down to the contest winner.
This Week’s Poems
There we go. If you have time, check them out and see what you think. And if you like any, let the author know about it by leaving a great comment!
Comments
Most of you did pretty well commenting this week. There were no standouts this week, but there were several people who still gave no comments. Please guys, I urge you to give at least two comments for every poem you post, if not more. Just as you love getting comments on your posts, so does everyone else, so let’s share that love.
Winner of Hive SBI
Remember, only people who gave two comments for every poem they posted are eligible for SBI. The only exception is that new poets are giving a pass their first week here.
Excluding myself, that puts 13 people in the running for 10 shares of SBIs (split 3–2–2–2–1).
Also only those who used the #creativecoin tag are eligible for CCC tokens. 16 people are in the running for those
I threw you guys into a random picker…
and the winners are…

For CCC tokens:
Congratulations!
(if you aren’t sure what SBI is, it’s kind of lifetime payment system. You can read about it here)
And thank you all for your wonderful poems!
Next Week ~ Next Prize
Next week will be the same reward — shares of Hive SBI.
The exact amount of Hive SBI depends on how many poets submit poems for the week.
0–9 poets - 1 SBI
10–19 poets - 5 SBI (split 2–2–1)
20–49 poets - 10 SBI (split 3–2–2–2–1)
(Note, these numbers don’t include 
Everyone will be eligible for CCC. The CCC reward is being dropped to 500 each for 5 people.
So if you want a chance for Hive SBI & CCC, go write a poem! If you want a chance for a lot of Hive SBI, go recruit others (and write a poem)! Spread the word, upvote and share this post to make it more visible, contact poet buddies on Discord and try to talk them into joining our group.
Just remember the rules:
- Comment on two other poems for every one that you post
- Make it a good comment (not just “great poem!”)
- If you offer criticism, keep it gentle and polite and remember the golden rule of criticism: say at least two positive things for every one thing you criticize.
Anyone caught breaking these rules will not be eligible for the reward.
I’m looking forward to reading everyone’s new poem in this next week.
(Note: If you’d like to donate any tokens or other things such as NFTs for prizes, please get in contact with me. Look for me as dbooster#6252 on Discord.)
