This Week in the Sndbox
Welcome to the 26th State of the Sndbox newsletter! This week, we explain our long-term mission to incorporate a true incubator into Steemit, publish our results for a Steemit-wide history challenge, updated some vital resources, and explore some the major happenings going on in Sndbox!
For a more thorough breakdown of what our members have been up to, be sure to go through our weekly Sndbox Selections of the Week post that we publish each Monday.
What is a [Steemit] Incubator?
To explain a bit more about the foundation and mission that Sndbox is built on, we published a full run down on the concept/operation of “Incubators” in the modern digital world and why they’re so vital in establishing self-sufficiency and growth in any sector. They’ve become a mainstay in the global world of startup companies and we’re striving to apply those strategies here on Steemit.
Read about the precedent of incubators and their potential integration into Steemit here.
100 Year Challenge Results
In the spirit of the @phillyhistory and its ambition to impact higher education with the Steemit platform, we launched our platform-wide challenge to participate in their research activity on the year 1918. We asked Steemians to submit their own stories and research. The submissions were incredible, diverse, and very creative. See the results of the competition here!
@sndbox Projects Update
Since the launch of the first full cohort, many of our members are already off to the races in the effort to establish impactful projects worldwide. As a creative Steemit incubator, we’ve been focused on helping them establish long-term commitments and ambitions on this platform. Our latest update goes through several of these amazing and admirable endeavors. You can find the list here.

How Much is Your Steemit Post Worth?
With the implementation of two distinct currencies and multiple sections incorporated in the Steemit payout system, it can quickly become confusing trying to figure out how much a post or comment is actually worth. In this latest toolkit resource, we go through the process of calculating payouts and the financial expectations of 100% Power-Up vs. 50/50.
You can find the full resource here.
Markdown Update
We’ve updated our Markdown resource to structure and sort the basics of Steemit's blogging language for new and even experienced users. Find the full new update here.
