This is the successful conclusion of months of work with @flauwy (original idea) and @andrejcibik (design) in order to add value to the Utopian platform by means of a manual curation trail.
Users maximize their curation rewards while helping Utopian to distinguish the best contributions!
How to use 1UP?
- Download SteemPlus ( Installation instruction on the bottom of the post)
- Login to SteemPlus (from the SteemPlus popup or the SteemPlus button on Steemit , Busy or Utopian)
- You should see the 1UP Button appear on Utopian
- Click on it to vote for the best contributions :
- After your vote is casted, the icon will become blue and you can see how many people already voted for this post.
Voting rules:
- You can vote 10 times a day
- You must have a reputation of 45 or more
- You can only vote once a day for the same person
- You cannot vote for yourself
- You cannot vote for a post that has already been upvoted by either @utopian-1up or @utopian-io.
Trail upvote:
Every 2.4 hours, when @utopian-1up account reaches 100% Voting Power, it will upvote the contribution that has the biggest number of 1UP votes. It will be followed by the entire 1UP curation trail (over 100 people are in the trail already).
To join the trail, please follo this guide from @flauwy. It s a great way to reward the best contributions while maximizing your curation rewards!
For now and in order to check that everything is working well, @steem-plus account will be voting instead of the trail. Once I'm sure that everything is working as expected, I will make the switch and we ll start seeing big juicy upvotes from the trail!
1UP Front end
You can see which contribution is going to be upvoted next and when in the 1UP front-end. Big thanks to @wehmoen for offering us the domain!
You can also get a listed of the best post of the day, the day before, or simply the best ever!
The front-end also originates from @flauwy 's idea and was designed by @andrejcibik and developed by @stoodkev.
Other improvements : Popup redesign and Onboarding

No need to show you the onboarding here, you will see it on your favorite extension soon enough ;)

Detailed features
Login via SteemConnect
Before accessing the SteemPlus features, you first need to connect using SteemConnect v2. SteemConnect is very safe and is the standard way to give access to Steem Apps.
Simply click the gray SteemPlus logo and it will start the login via SteemConnect. Follow the instructions and add your private key. Once done you will be redirect to the page you were before and see that the SteemPlus logo has turned blue:
Congratulations! You now have access to all the features!
Dropdown
Adding two new functions to the user dropdown on Steemit:
- Direct access to Market
- Base price from the blockchain
- STEEM/USD price (Coinmarket API)
- SBD/USD price (Cryptonator API)
One click switch
Voting slider for Minnows
To access the voting slider, click on the popup and go to Upvote tab, make sure the url corresponds to what you want to upvote and click Upvote. For a comment, first click on the date to change the URL.
From the same popup you can also access the options to turn on and off the features.
True account value
On both Steemit and Busy, you can check the true value of your account (based on current value of SBD and Steem rather than an average).
Delegation button
You can find the delegation button in both Steemit and Busy wallets:
Simply fill the form and you will be redirected via SteemConnect to confirm. Note that you can undelegate directly from there and see who are your delegatees. If you undelegate, you won't be able to use your previously delegated SP during 7 days.
Beneficiaries
On Steemit you can now add beneficiaries to your posts and decide which percentage of your post they will receive.
Note the following:
- Beneficiaries rewards will be perceived on SP only
- @steem-plus will get a 5% reward
- You cannot exceed 100% obviously
- You cannot exceed 6 beneficiaries
Badges
