Steemit's Weekly Scoop

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.

Check out @themarkymark's post for more details. Guess who owns the most SBD?

Mark Your Calendars - Velocity Scheduled On Sep 25 11AM EST

What are you excited about the HF20 changes?

  1. 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?
  2. You can now comment every 3 seconds. Yeah, spammers can too.
  3. Switching to Resource Credits Explain that to me again?
  4. 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.

Maybe the last time ever we will see Steem below 1$!

Better get your wallets ready.

Need more FIAT damn it i bought every single dip!

I thought i was losing my mind when i saw the eye rolling!!!
I'm just wondering how the crazies keep streaking naked through steemit with their flags!!!

I'm loving this.

Press on, and steem on, and well, just don't get pissed on.

Don't even care if we get flagged on.

That shitcoin song is hilariously awesome. Also thanks for the contest link, I'm super busy but I'll look into it and probabaly share it on my page even if I don't enter! I like sharing other peoples contests. :)
