Free Accounts Give-Away Pilot Collaboration with 
In our last post (among other things, such as the forthcoming Open Sourcing of the UA algorithm) we announced our plans for a
A quick reminder, we incentivize "good behavior" on Steem, reasoning as follows:
- real accounts that follow your account, is - according to us at least - a good indicator of how influential you are on Steem,
- ergo: the more real users follow you, the higher your own UA Score & Rank,
- real humans will follow your account, when you do and keep on doing "interesting things",
- regularly posting "interesting content", which can be about anything, is assumed to contribute to your own following,
- regularly engaging with others - networking - also is expected to contribute to your own following,
- rewarding others, with upvotes that are worth a monetary value, is expected to contribute to your own following,
- powering up your own account to some extent, increases your own vote worth, which - again - is expected to contribute to your own following,
- by requiring delegations, in order to get upvoted by
- by requiring delegations in order to get upvotes, more Steem is vested and because of the 13-week Power-Down Period the liquid supply of Steem is therefore reduced temporarily because vested Steem cannot be immediately sold. Ergo the price & market cap of Steem is expected to increase because of that. (Of course ~ 326,000 delegated SP has little effect on Steem price, but every SP helps!),
- as we use batched upvote rounds, in which we compare each upvote-eligible post's UA score relatively to the other posts in the same batch, we stimulate every delegating author to always do their best, with publishing quality content, good user engagement via the comments, because higher UA Post Scores (computed via
UA_Vote = x * UA_Account + y * UA_Post_Votes + z * UA_Comments) - relatively to the other Posts - gets you a higher

Everything mentioned above on "incentivizing good behavior" deals with "currently active Steem users". We intend to continue doing that, but from now on we will also focus on Onboarding New Users to the Steem Blockchain. Hence, our "

As always, a number of people contacted us on Discord over the past week. Among them this week was
In short:
"while it's "only 6 STEEM" to create an account via existing methods ... 6 STEEM is only about 2 McDonald's meals, but ... parting with even 2 McDonald's meals seems like another bump in the road"
Ehm... think about that: even the thought of comparing the creation of 1 Steem account at the cost of 2 meals, is pretty sad, yet realistic in some parts of the world, like South-Africa (and Venezuela, large parts of Africa, etc.) If

- he will explain how to use the newly created Steem accounts to their new owners,
- explain to them how to change their own private keys and keep them private / to themselves,
- after which he also will coach them to grow their account and hopefully earn some Steems,
- maybe even delegate to

Good! :-)
