For some time I have been watching the statistics in the State of Steem daily news posts by @pennsif. These includes the numbers of minnows, dolphins etc. I think that as long as he has done this there have been just over 9000 minnows and just under 2000 dolphins. We need to get those numbers up. We need more people who can influence post values and also so they have more of a stake in Steem that will encourage them to stick around.

Following a comment by @pennsif I am making the first what I hope will be a series of #TenKMinnows posts with the hope that we can get at least that number in the next few months.
I will try to find some people who are under the 500 SP threshold and we can try to get them over it. You can post your own suggestions in comments. To be honest, most dolphins, orcas and whales are not desperate for your votes, so send them to some minnows instead. I will decline rewards on this post, so please do not vote on it.
You can also delegate to minnows to help them out, but this does not affect their classification.
Here is the first batch:
- @arseniclullaby is a professional comic artist who has been here for nearly a year. He is sharing some great artwork with us and should really have far more than 545 followers. He has just over 300 SP, but I can see he has been taking out some liquid Steem. That is fair enough as art is his job.
- @heymattsokol is a musician and generally interesting person with just 200 SP. He left Steem for a while, but is active again now.
- @dougalporteous is an artist and musician who just joined up and only has 30 SP. He's eager to be part of the community and I should see him again next week at the London meetup.
- @run.vince.run is a stalwart of the Steem running community. He is one of those who inspire me. He has been here a year, yet only has under 100 SP.
These are people who I have been following, but there are lots more out there. Share your suggestions and I will give out some votes. I will cut down on votes to those who are already doing well.
Steem on!
