A few days ago I re-introduced my idea about bounties to the steem community and I am putting up an actual bounty to give you a test drive feeling of what it could be like.
Granted doing this all manually is not very cool, but since it is not implemented yet, this is the best way to experience bounties in action. Essentially what the bounty does is reward the user(s) that will give the best feedback to the bounty idea overall.
Currently the comments are very "light" and the $200 are still very much up for grabs.
How do I get the $200
A) Read my two articles that describe the idea and why I think it can be transformational:
Original article: https://steemit.com/steemit/@knircky/the-potential-of-bounties-an-improvement-proposal-for-steem-to-double-its-value
Follow up article: https://steemit.com/bounty/@knircky/wanted-how-to-bring-value-into-the-steemit-ecosystem-usd200-sbd-bounty
B) Think about it and write some feedback. Do this before the EOD Tuesday. Anything goes, criticism, improvement, ways to implement...anything you think will be valuable. The comment has to be part of the 2nd article, the one that actually introduced the bounty.
C) Collect the money sometime after next Tuesday. It will simply appear in your wallet via a payment from my account "knircky".
How is the money distributed
70% by me the rest by the rest of the votes. Part of the idea of bounties is that people putting up the money get to decide who will earn it, but the community should also have an impact, hence the 70-30 distribnution. If you think that sucks, write about it and collect that bounty.
The other 30% will be distributed according of how much votes in SBD comments have earned.
Enjoy
