Everyone loves a good birthday party!
@BirthdayBoost is a Steem community that celebrates its members' birthdays (either the day you were born or the day you joined the Steem community). On your special day you will receive a birthday boost from the community. Every other day of the year, we will collectively give birthday boosts out to other people!
What are the benefits of joining @BirthdayBoost?
- The day you choose is your special day. No one else will be celebrated on that day. That means that only 365 people can join the community, so join now before all of the spots are filled!
- You will receive a birthday boost from the community on your birthday, including ...
- A full upvote from the @BirthdayBoost community account.
- An upvote from every member of the community. (See more details below).
- As the community grows, the goal is to provide each community member a share of @SteemBasicIncome on his/her birthday.
What is required to join the party?
1. Let us know your birthdate (day and month).
Remember that you can choose your actual birthday or your Steem birthday. Both are worthy of celebrating!
Did someone else take your special day? No worries. Choose another day, but try to choose a day in the month you celebrate one of your birthdays
We still have a lot of dates available. A red X means that a day has been chosen.
For the most up-to-date calendar information, check out our latest update post.
Once you have meet all of the requirements, send me a Discord message or a encrypted message letting me know what day you chose. After I have confirmed that you meet all of the requirements, you will have your birthday party spot reserved.

- Open your Steem Wallet

2. Delegate 15 Steem Power to @BirthdayBoost.
@BirthdayBoost is a community account that upvotes its members. As the account grows larger it can support its members with larger upvotes.
3. Follow the @BirthdayBoost voting trail.
The @BirthdayBoost voting trail (bdayboosttr) will upvote an average of two posts each day.
- A recent post written by the birthday honoree.
- The current @BirthdayBoost recap post written to celebrate the birthday honoree.
The main community account will upvote more than 2 posts each day in order to maximize curation rewards, but following the voting trail will only result in 2 upvotes.
See below for more information about the voting trail.
Who is organizing the party?
Hello, everyone! My name is @SumatraNate, and I have been a member of the Steem community since June 2017.
I have enjoyed creating content and building relationships, so I thought the next natural step in my Steem journey would be to start a support community for other members. And what a better way than to celebrate birthdays (either the day you took your first breath or the day you joined the Steem community).
How to delegate Steem Power
The SteemIt SP Delegation Tool helps you correctly fill out the information required to delegate Steem Power via SteemConnect.
- Enter your Steem User ID as Delegator ID.
- Enter birthdayboost as Delegatee ID.
- Enter 15 as Amount.
- Click Delegate Via SteemConnect.com.
Once you confirmed that you entered the information correctly, click Continue.
Enter the appropriate password. SteemConnect.com is the standard for logging into other Steem based sites.
How to follow the @BirthdayBoost voting trail
In order to be apart of the community, you must follow the voting trail with an upvote that is worth at least 300 SteemPower. The reason for this requirement is so that every @BirthdayBoost is a significant one.
At present a 100% upvote from an account with 300 undelegated Steem Power is worth about $0.03. When the birthday calendar is completely filled in, our collective upvote will be worth $10.95 (at the current price of Steem).
- Click here to be directed to the @BirthdayBoost trail (which is set up on SteemAuto.com)
- Log into SteemAuto.com via SteemConnect.
- After bdayboosttr (the official @BirthdayBoost trail) has been added to your SteemAuto account, click the Settings button.
- Enter at least the minimum required percentage based on your undelegated Steem Power. Of course, you can upvote at a higher percentage than the required minimum!
- Set how many minutes after the post that you want to vote (recommended 25-30 minutes).
Use the following equation to determined your minimum voting percentage:
30,000 / Your Undelegated Steem Power = Voting Percentage
Examples:
300 SP = 100% vote
400 SP = 75% vote
500 SP = 60% vote
600 SP = 50% vote
1000 SP = 30% vote
3000 SP = 10% vote
What happens if a community member does not meet the requirements on an ongoing basis?
Birthday parties are meant to be fun, so we want our community members to always feel welcomed, but we do have expectations for our community members.
A community member who does not continue to meet the requirements will be given a warning about the status of their membership.
If that member does not meet the requirements after a second warning then he/she will be removed from the party and another person will be allowed to fill the empty spot.
