This week hasn't been that noisy compared to the first edition but here goes the top 2 breaking news stories:
STEEM and SBD Down to Less Than 1 USD
Steemians are redeeming STEEM and SP rewards. No more printing SBDs for now. When STEEM market cap goes up and the debt ratio goes below 2% (9 to 10% when HF20 is in effect). Then we'll see SBD rewards again.
Mark Your Calendars - Velocity Scheduled On Sep 25 11AM EST
What are you excited about the HF20 changes?
Now you (curator) can vote at 15mins. Self-voting at 0 min goes to the reward pool NOT the author. So self-vote at 15 mins?
You can now comment every 3 seconds. Yeah, spammers can too.
Switching to Resource Credits Explain that to me again?
Voting Power is now Voting mana
Beware the Steemit Faucet Account Abusers
Report Them To SteemFlagRewards
@pirateofthedtube found a Microworker's Job Request that might be why the Steemit Defense League keeps on having new accounts downvoting/flagging posts. The employer is from India.
This is not the first time we've seen such finding. @nathen007 also found other Microworker Jobs buying Steemit accounts. The other employers are from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Maybe this is something Velocity is going to curb...
But if you find yourself being flagged for no reason, report that account to @steemflagrewards.
Don't Despair Your Post Might Pay Out Big

With STEEM and SBD falling, there's still a chance your post can beat the top 10 payouts in Steemit history.
What kind of post can top a technical post about STEEM GUI?
