In the spirit of Curie's transparency, we wish to use this weekly section as an ongoing development blog on this community project to communicate our progress on top of the many casual exchanges happening in Curie’s server on discord.

Channel Update
We would like to announce the movement of Curie’s activities from steemit.chat to our Discord server. This decision was taken by the operational team of curie due to the recent issues with steemit.chat. You can join our server by clicking here
Author Showcase
We are launching a new initiative in which we shine the spotlight on some of the best posts to have received support from curie during the week. The first edition was published during this past week and can be found on Hive account@curie’s blog. Please consider supporting the authors by voting on their featured posts.
Streemian
We experienced a 24hr downtime on Streemian during the week which slowed down our curation activities. Plans are in place for a new Curation platform, further announcements will be given regarding this.

Curators
The Top Curators list will dynamically change every other week depending on performance. Anybody will be able to rise up the ranks with consistent, quality curation. Inconsistent, low-quality curation will result in dropping out of Top curators list(or regular curation, if under-performance continues). Exceptional long-term top curators transition to direct curation.
This week, we have upvoted 104 posts submitted by curators in http://curiesteem.com, with 1,040 STEEM to be paid out to curators.
