Steem Basic Income

Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content.

Delegation Bonus Shares

Existing members can receive bonus shares from delegation. For every 20 SP delegated to @steembasicincome, members will receive 1 bonus share. These bonus shares will be removed if the delegation is withdrawn. Currently each share in pool 1 receives a weekly voting weight of roughly 1.56%.

@sbi2, @sbi3, @sbi4, @sbi5, and @sbi6 are managed to target multiples (e.g. 200 shares ~ 400 SP, 500 shares ~1000 SP, etc.) For this reason we ask that members that are delegating for bonus shares always delegate to pool 1 and we will manage the SP flow into the lower pools appropriately. If you want to fill SP orders through minnowbooster's market, you are of course welcome to fill the orders going to lower pools. Please do not combine filling orders for pool 1 (@steembasicincome) with delegating for bonus shares.

If you would like to see how your bonus shares fit into your overall reward, it is provided in our new member tracking sheet. A full explanation is given here:
https://steemit.com/basicincome/@steembasicincome/steem-basic-income-membership-update-pulling-back-the-screen

Any Steemian that is already enrolled in @steembasicincome can delegate as much as they would like, to receive bonus shares. If you are not already a member but would like to delegate, please send an enrollment transaction to @steembasicincome and we will add your bonus shares at the time we process your enrollment.

We appreciate the members that take us up on this! Let's look briefly at our current delegation sources for pool 1.

We are grateful to all of our members that provide delegation, along with the many Steemians that fulfill our market orders. This is terrific for our long-term sustainability! Great job, everyone! If you are a member and you believe that I have incorrectly characterized your delegation as fulfilled through MB market, please reach out to me on Discord so that we can talk about it.

Enrollment

If this sounds interesting and you want to get involved, or to increase the share of basic income that you receive, enrollment is pretty straightforward:

Just send 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome. Include the name of a Steemian to sponsor in the transaction memo (preceded by @). You and the person you sponsor will each receive 1 share in the program. You can sponsor any active Steemian, it does not have to be a current member.

If you're unclear, please check out our full transaction memo guidelines and then let us know if you have any questions.
https://steemit.com/basicincome/@steembasicincome/steem-basic-income-new-transaction-memo-guidelines

The official currency for enrollment is STEEM. We accept SBD at our discretion (usually when they're very close, or when SBD is stronger) but you do not receive extra value or any partial refund for paying in SBD instead of STEEM. If we choose to accept an SBD enrollment, we accept the entire amount. If we choose to reject it, we refund the entire amount and request you to send STEEM instead.

Operation Save A Newbie

@greetersguild is coordinating a huge effort to organize greeters, share resources with new Steemians, and hopefully improve the Steem retention rate. As part of the kickoff even, they are giving away over 60 SBI shares, most sponsored by various Steemians from the community! We believe this is a great initiative (and @josephsavage sponsored a few shares himself). To learn all about it, get involved (and potentially win some SBI shares), check out the kick-off post.
