Hey Steemians! This is @raycoms here bringing you an exciting new update about the MinnowBooster platform. You may not know me but I'm one of BuildTeam's top developers and one of the main driving forces behind MinnowBooster's development.
Many of you have asked for a way to eliminate abuse on the Steem blockchain and there are quite a number of people who believe that bid bots are the reason why Steem isn't more successful as an ecosystem. If you've been paying attention we have made many attempts to eliminate abuse from actively scanning the blockchain, increasing customer support agents in our discord server and updating our Terms of Service with new requirements and specific criteria for buying votes.
All of that has helped immensely but the fact of the matter is that without the help of the Steem community, there's simply no way to eliminate abuse. We've listened to Steemians and today I'm proud to announce that MinnowBooster is taking a leap forward in helping Steemians curate quality content while using the MinnowBooster voting market for visibility.
I would like to introduce the future of responsible voting...
The MinnowBooster Community Whitelist
The community whitelist was designed to enable quality content producers on the Steem blockchain to actively curate and groom other quality content producers with the goal of creating an approved whitelist made by Steemians for Steemians.
Some of the benefits of being whitelisted include:
1.) MinnowBooster Whitelist Members are allowed a total send of 100SBD / Day compared to the max send of 50SBD / day for normal users.
2.) MinnowBooster Whitelist Members receive up to 0.5% commission on votes bought by whitelist members they participated in reviewing (depending on the number of reviewers).
3.) MinnowBooster Whitelist Members receive a higher level of profitability on purchased votes when compared to normal vote buyers.
Keep in mind to get a place on the whitelist you will need to be invited by a member of the whitelist, approved by 3 additional members of the whitelist and finally approved by a MinnowBooster admin. This means that there are 5 people reviewing each account and ensures that only writers who strongly adhere to the rules outlined in the MinnowBooster Terms of Service are allowed to join!
Every whitelisted member starts with 2 invitations and 5 votes. If you vote on a whitelist applicant and they are accepted into the whitelist you receive your original vote back to be used again as well as bonus votes for being such a great voter! If you invite a member and they become accepted you receive another invitation to continue the good work!
Don't understand what I'm talking about? That is fine... Here's a simple graphic explaining it visually:
The MinnowBooster Whitelist Model
Now, I'm going to lay out how it works step by step:
1.) You must first be invited by a whitelist member.
2.) After being invited when you login to your account on https://minnowbooster.net you'll be able to see a link that says whitelist on the left in the navigation panel. Additionally you will see that the dropdown menu on the top right has a new link 'Invite to Whitelist'
You have 2 invitations which can be used to invite amazing Steem content producers.
3.) After you use your first invitation it will take you to this screen:
Users who have been invited are allowed 5 votes which they can use to approve or reject whitelist candidates.
To be accepted a person must be invited, receive 3 votes and be approved by an admin.
Keep in mind that your votes matter and voting correctly will result in bonus money and additional votes!
Thoughts on the MB Community Whitelist
This is a new system which we will be testing out as a beta run of what we hope becomes the new norm for all voting bots on the Steem platform. Together we can eliminate abuse and make sure that the blockchain does what it was designed to do, publish outstanding original content!
Thank you again for your patience, understanding and support of the MinnowBooster community whitelist program. There are many more good things to come!
