Steem Basic Income

Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content.

Still Going Strong

We are up to six pools, so your upvotes could come from Hive account@steembasicincome, Hive account@sbi2, Hive account@sbi3, Hive account@sbi4, Hive account@sbi5, Hive account@sbi6, or Hive account@sbi7. We currently have 2130 members that have posted within the last 28 days, and many more members that have not. Unfortunately the members that are not posting are not receiving upvotes. There are currently 12212 'shares' in the program, and it grows every day.

Delegation Bonus Shares

Existing members can receive bonus shares from delegation. For every 20 SP delegated to Hive account@steembasicincome, members will receive 1 bonus share. These bonus shares will be removed if the delegation is withdrawn. Currently each share in pool 1 receives a weekly voting weight of roughly 1.24%.

Hive account@sbi2, Hive account@sbi3, Hive account@sbi4, Hive account@sbi5, and Hive account@sbi6 are managed to target multiples (e.g. 200 shares ~ 400 SP, 500 shares ~1000 SP, etc.) For this reason we ask that members that are delegating for bonus shares always delegate to pool 1 and we will manage the SP flow into the lower pools appropriately. If you want to fill SP orders through minnowbooster's market, you are of course welcome to fill the orders going to lower pools. Please do not combine filling orders for pool 1 (Hive account@steembasicincome) with delegating for bonus shares.

If you would like to see how your bonus shares fit into your overall reward, it is provided in our member tracking sheet. A full explanation is given here:

Any Steemian that is already enrolled in Hive account@steembasicincome can delegate as much as they would like, to receive bonus shares. If you are not already a member but would like to delegate, please send an enrollment transaction to Hive account@steembasicincome and we will add your bonus shares at the time we process your enrollment.

We appreciate the members that take us up on this! Let's look briefly at member delegations that are rewarded with bonus shares.

We are grateful to all of our members that provide delegation. This is terrific for our long-term sustainability! Great job, everyone! If you are a member and you believe that I have incorrectly characterized your delegation as fulfilled through MB market, please reach out to me on Discord so that we can talk about it.

Enrollment

If you want to get involved, or to increase the share of basic income that you receive, enrollment is pretty straightforward:

Just send 1 STEEM to Hive account@steembasicincome. Include the name of a Steemian to sponsor in the transaction memo (preceded by @). You and the person you sponsor will each receive 1 share in the program. You can sponsor any active Steemian, it does not have to be a current member.

If you're unclear, please check out our full transaction memo guidelines and then let us know if you have any questions.

The official currency for enrollment is STEEM. We are not currently accepting SBD.
