Three scholarships of 1000 POB were issued in February. The first whitelisted was @holovision. He continued to support community and produce nfts. You can see his work here.
@savagetobi was the next to be whitelisted. There is no other way to say it but savage. He went to work right away creating a silhouette of my friend and making an nft from this. Looks like a good gift and made me smile. Check it out here. This may be a familiar face to some of you.
Altogether 3000 POB was sent out for whitelisting in February. The problem we keep coming up with is getting @astrocreator whitelisted. He is a brilliant artist with catchy characters and I would like to see him on board pob, but I think he needs a little help with staking. A requirement to be whitelisted on proofofbrain.io is to have 1000 POB staked. The last time I checked, he had only 60 PB staked and needs 940 POB more staked to get enough to be considered for whitelisting. We tried applying with delegated stake but only the applicant's stake is counted and that rule doesn't seem to have any chance of changing soon.
Normally the POBscholarship was only 1000 liquid POB but some members of the POB community would like to see @astrocreator whitelisted. In this case @pobscholarship will send powered up POB to @astrocreator beginning with the 31 POB I am staking directly to @astrocreator. Little by little this staked POB will add up to 1000.
Every little action adds up on POB. The return from curation also gets added to POB power. I cannot always vote everyone directly so I follow the @vyb.curation trail on https://hive.vote to make my curation noticed and get POB power.
There is not much more to say. Just a shoutout to our first POB Scholarship winner @jaxsonmurphhere. There are a lot of crypto punks and cryptobabies and always new ones coming in.
