Question: Are new accounts getting delegated some SP?

I'm sure it's explained somewhere, but I'm just trying to understand how things are working as there have been issues with people signing up to Steemit.

Looking at a new account I am assuming that an extra 105SP has been delegated to them to increase their voting power. How long does that last for? Could it cause issues if someone creates lots of bot accounts?

I think this extra SP comes from the @steem account, which is currently delegating almost all its SP. Looks like there may not be enough for the next new account. Will they get the error I showed previously? There's a Github issue for this. I think it's more about someone topping up this account that an actual bug, but the team need to be aware of it.

We need to minimise issues for people signing up to Steemit. Recruitment is vital. Keeping users is important too, but that's another story.
