Now voting for members instead of others and sharing curation rewards in an evolving direction ro sharing STEEM wealth.

Months ago anyone could join @steemprentice crowd guild by sending 10 or STEEM to @steemprentice as the price increased with the STEEM POWER of the account. Part of the initial idea was to vote for members but the vote was worth too little initially. Seemed better to vote for better value authors and share the value earned from curation rewards with members as a way to better help minnows and share more value with all members.

Over the past six months member have received a share of curation rewards as a 25% return on their initial contribution while the other half was reinvested to increase the STEEM POWER. Going forward we may continue sharing curation rewards as we have in the past along with upvotes for members which will return more value.

Steemprentice now voting for members

Now since the last hard fork the value of the vote is worth more and now seems a good time to change back to part of the original vision. So if you are member you will see @steemprentice votes if you haven't noticed them already. Currently giving out 10% upvotes to members. No longer accepting members by sending STEEM to @steempretice unless that is wanted. But such demand of this idea seems to have subsided with only so many initially interested.

STEEMP on bitshares

STEEMP is a token on bitshares that represents the STEEM POWER of @steemprentice This token may be used to get votes from @steemprentice and/or a share of STEEM (POWER) and curation rewards. Part of curation rewards and increased STEEM POWER will be shared with token holders as ideas are thought out about this process to keep a good working model of sharing growth and value.
