Introduction
Project Curie is a community project run by several Steemit authors. Its mission is to help reward content creators who are posting great original content, yet who have not yet become established. In the short time since Curie began, our writers group has partnered with @nextgencrypto and other whale accounts to bring rewards to these deserving authors. Writers, artists, chefs, photographers, videographers, and many others have been recognized by these rewards.
Each day, the members of our Project will publish this list of the posts that Project Curie has chosen to reward recently. We hope that this list will provide more positive exposure to the authors we have selected. Also, it is an effort for us to be more transparent about which posts are being rewarded. We hope that you will consider following not only this @curie account, but also many of the authors whose work is featured here each day. Please consider adding your comments on these posts also!
Today's Brief Analysis
Today's list polls all posts curated between 17:00 17/09 UTC and 17:00 18/09 UTC. Project Curie voted on a total of 167 posts by 148 unique authors. SBD 7,829 has been generated for authors thus far, at an average of SBD 47 per post. The cumulative author rewards generated and posts upvoted is a new record for a 24 hour period.
Due to this increase in volume, we'll be forced to split this edition into two parts. If someone well versed with Steem knows of a solution to work around the maximum block size error, do let us know - we'd rather just have one post.
