Please members this is just another way of further helping ourselves to grow via promoting our own through upvotes, comments, resteem and anyway you feel you can impact positively on other members’ blog. It will be very nice if all members are showing solidarity with the member featured so that when it gets to your turn you receive similar support.
This will also help us know more about other members and learn/see what their blog is all about. This is a social platform and the more we engage with each other I think it should be the better for us all.
Thank you everyone as we continue to work together to grow because there is power in unity!
Note: This section may be reviewed as we move along to make it more effective as we continue to receive more feedback.
Expiring Leased SP / First Power Down Income / Taking Up Long Term Leases
Starting late tomorrow you might start noticing changes in
A 600 leased SP will expire late tomorrow.
Our first income from power down will be received in about 23 hours time.
12 weeks SP leases will be placed on offer at minnow booster.
A 650 leased SP will expire in two days time.
I’ll check how much our first power down is able to lease for 12 months, if there is a need I’ll assist with what we have to extend the 650 SP so that we don’t have a long time drop is SP.
Steem Basic Income (SBI) Shares
Members can also support us with Steem Basic Income (SBI) shares donation, SBI shares guarantees that the community post receives upvotes and the more SBI shares we have the higher the reward value we receive through upvotes.

We thank you all for your donations and really appreciate you.
Membership Upgrade
Some members have been kind enough to upgrade their membership by delegating additional SP to their current delegated SP. This is really helping to grow the community SP which in turn grows the value of our upvotes.
Membership SP delegation will help reduced our reliance on leasing SP. Help us grow this community to encourage the content creators that are poorly rewarded through the upvote value they receive. So we need the big time delegators to join us and reap the benefits available for all members.
