Thanks to sales of TASKMANAGER both on steemit and the bitshares DEX, is currently sitting at 4,331.696 STEEM POWER! You can also see the (partial) buyback amount building up in the savings account :). I have been setting aside almost all liquid STEEM rewards for the buyback. It is currently at 51.245 STEEM and growing. Followers may have noticed that The Daily Task Manager is no longer daily. It wasn't doing very well making money, however lots of users do find it informative so it will come out every few days instead of daily. I can cover most of the contests this way without burning myself out.
This also gives me time to work on my dream baby of a front end for steemit, with a simplified bitshares DEX built in...
Not too bad at all, remember obtaining and holding 50(1) TASKMANAGER qualifies you for an autovote from this account. is hosting a giveaway here, where you can get an even share of the posts payout in TASKMANAGER.
You can see here on this graph provided by steemwhales.com, that creating a UIA on the bitshares network and offering a % of my profits has been successful so far.
The Pledge
If at any point powers down for 1 or more cycles, 75%+ of the STEEM powered down will be converted to OPEN.STEEM and used for the TASKMANAGER buyback.
This is recorded on the blockchain. I have no plans to power down, I just wish to make it clear that if I do, most or all of it will go back to investors.
TASKMANAGER is an asset hosted on the bitshares blockchain, a % of the liquid STEEM from all @taskmanager posts is placed in savings, to be used to buyback TASKMANAGER for OPEN.STEEM on a regular basis. Holders of 50(1) or more TASKMANAGER qualify for the @taskmanager autovote. Sales from TASKMANAGER (2) will be used to power up the account. Future projects by will be funded by, and owe a portion of it's profits to this asset.
(1) - The amount of TASKMANAGER required to qualify for autovote may change over time.
(2) - Some of the funds from sales may be used for promotional costs, fees, hardware, software and other possible investments.
