Looking to make more minnows in 2024

avatar

I have been operating the @tenkminnows account since March 2019 with the aim of boosting the number of Minnows here. Back then we were still on the old chain. Numbers peaked around 9300 before the fork and then dropped. We have not managed to get back above 9000 since then, but we are now pretty close.

Stats from @arcange

I have used HiveVote to automate this. I just went through the list and found that a fair few people had graduated. Some others have gone inactive, so I dropped them. It is therefore time to look for more candidates.

My criteria have not really changed. You need to meet these criteria:

  • Be actively posting with quality posts. You need to be commenting too and just using Threads or Waves will not count. It is up to you to build support for your account.
  • Do not be powering down. I want to support people who are building up their HP.
  • Have under 570HP. The threshold for Minnow is just above that. If you are nearly there and getting good votes then you probably do not need these extra votes.

Send me your nominations of those who could use some extra support to get to Minnow quicker.

The support of @tenkminnows can be significant. I and others delegate to it and the account itself is getting close to Dolphin thanks to curation rewards. Some people follow the voting trail. You should not expect to continue to get these votes once you become a Minnow. This is why you need to build your following. We need more votes to come from people who actually read the posts. I would encourage manual voting anyway. The big curation accounts have too much power in my opinion. I do not pay people for delegating to this project, but following the trail will get your votes to people who need support.

You should support the people who you think add value to Hive and provide the content you want to see.

If you know people who need an account then I can create them. Get in touch if you need help with that. I will consider delegating to start them off.

The success of Hive is down to each of us. We can spread the word about it and support those who join.

Hive five!

This is a nice goal you have set and I am sure you can achieve it with time.

avatar

I hope everyone will play a part. We all stand to benefit.

avatar

I plan on maintaining my current delegation.

avatar

Thanks for that. It all helps.

avatar

Strong "middle class" is crucial for Hive growth IMO. This project deserves more support!

avatar

I was once a candidate and @tenkminnows did help me a lot, thank you!

I recommend @beeeee and @zeegirl they are both newbies and very consistent.

avatar

Babygirl 😘 thanks for the tag. Let's get to work y'all.

avatar

I am very interested in this @mosupholstery hope to be considered has a candidate. I also recommend @pekkymos thanks boss

avatar

You have both been added. Keep working on it.

avatar

I am interested in this, I would love to participate.

avatar

This is really an impressive goal you set actually

avatar

I will nominate @kingsleyy
Good luck and kudos to you for the great job

avatar

He is already well past Minnow. This is to help smaller accounts.

avatar

@beeeee is recommended already and I need to recommend her again.

Thank you for the good work

avatar

Thank you so much ☺️☺️☺️

avatar
(Edited)

Can I add a link to this post in the 2024 Saturday Savers Club launch? We sometimes have some new and smaller accounts. I'm keen to encourage people to use Saturday Savers Club to grow their account to Minnow.

avatar

Of course. I have added a few suggestions already. I just need to keep the numbers manageable.

avatar

We could always put out a notice through the year if you get vacancies 😍

avatar

Sure. I'll try to review the list every few months.

avatar

Reblogged and promoted for a day on Ecency. We need more minnows! :)

avatar

Thanks for all the suggestions. I am adding some of them for now and will see how things go.

avatar

And I nominate @ijebest

avatar

Wow ooooooo 😂, this is a good news, thank you so much for the nomination, I appreciate you,

then what's the next thing I'm suppose to do about this nomination.

avatar

Just participate in Hive! Post and comment quality stuff. :)

avatar

I love to participate.. i am new her... I hope i contribute from my side 😜

avatar

You need to gain some more followers and then I will consider you.

avatar

!LUV your work. Thanks, mate.

I vote for Monioluwa (@monioluwa). He's crazy busy with his job in Nigeria so he struggles to be consistent but he's been trying for a while now and gets on when he can. His HP is well under the threshold. (Never sure if people are powering down or not! So I have to leave this check to you).

Also, @abenad is very new. (Too new for what you're doing here, Steve? I'm always unsure of the many backend things and metrics). She's showing up consistently. Writing thoughtful posts and commenting like a decent Hivean. Leave you with it! Abenad, this may not make any sense to you as a newbie. Don't worry. If Steve feels you meet the criteria, he'll explain it all :)

avatar

Yeah,very much lost with what’s going on here …but thank you so much.

avatar

All good. Someone will explain it if you need to know. And you're welcome! Thanks for being active and thoughtful as you share and communicate here on Hive :) Keep doing good stuff and people will keep looking for ways to reward you for it. !LUV

avatar

Hello. It's been quite a while. 😄

I just decided to drop by and say hi to you, and then I saw your tag. Thank you very much for always having me in mind. I really appreciate that you're always looking out for me. 😊

I've taken on more responsibilities since the last time I was here, and I've gotten more busy than usual, but I'll try as much as I can to visit here more often.

avatar

Hiiiiii !LUV

I have missed your face! I hope the extra responsibilities (at work? or at home?) are interesting and good challenges to have. Are they?

Do the best you can. No one can ask for more than that. (If they're reasonable humans, that is :P !LOL)

avatar

buen dato amigo, realmente se me hace difícil publicar en Hive , pero trato de dar mi aporte comentando activamente todos los días de mi vida, quería saber cómo llego salgo de la categoría pez rojo osea la categoría más pequeña, cuantos hp debo tener en mi cuenta??

avatar

I know you comment a lot, but posts tend to make more. Find communities you are interested in and post about what you enjoy.

To be a Minnow you need about 570 HP. You can see here how many VESTS you have. They need to reach a million. Those are equivalent to HP and the conversion keeps changing due to the inflation.

Have fun.

avatar

Gracias mi señor por su apoyo, realmente lo admiro mucho y mucho éxito con las carreras y la batería en 2024.

avatar

@steevc can you drop me the list of minnows (on Discord) you're supporting? I'd like to contribute with some votes if their posts meet the requirements.

avatar

I'll do that soon. Thanks

avatar

Thanks!

avatar

There isn't an easy way to export the accounts I have set up in Hive Vote. I have asked on their Discord about that. You can still check who @tenkminnows votes for, but it also follows at least one trail.

avatar

I am also interested to participate in this contest.

avatar

You are already a Minnow, so you do not need the help. This is not a contest.

avatar

I typically have ecency points that are unused. I then go through post feeds to find posts of relatively new users in order to boost them. Is there a list of current tenkminnows to that I can boost these if their posts are good?

avatar

I can't easily generate a list of people, but you can check who the account votes for.

I have loads of ecency points, but a lot of my boosts seem to get rejected. I don't use them on my own posts. What are the criteria for success on that?

avatar

Ok ill have deeper look i to the votes then, thanks! Regarding the points same here, I looked into it and there wasn’t a clear answer. It really depends on the curator looming at the post. I read a minimum of 200 words, english and no obvious easy gains posts are the typical requirements. But even when I try to boost based on that they often get rejected 🤷‍♂️

avatar

Love this! Keep up the good work Steeve! hope your recovering fast!
!PIZZA !LUV !LOL

avatar

I'm feeling better thanks. I hope to do more to boost the Hive community this year.

!PIZZA

avatar

I am late to read this post.
I want to mention that I have been one of the beneficiary of the @tenkminnows intiative in 2019 and this has created a great impact.
You're doing amazing work @steevc must appreciate and thanks for what you do.
I am sure you will make more minnows this year in 2024

avatar

Cheers. I will keep on doing this as long as I see a need for it. When Hive gets much bigger then things may change.

avatar

Hello @steevc with regards to this, I have a friend that wants to join Hive, I’ve been trying to create an account but it’s been pretty hard.

avatar

If you can contact me as steevc on Discord or Gmail I can try to help with this.

avatar

Okay thank you so so much.

I’ll send a message right away on discord

avatar

I just sent you a mail now, couldn’t find your username on discord.

avatar

@paulmoon410 is my nomination

avatar

I'm not even sure what this is exactly... but I appreciate that.

avatar

I can't do it alone!

It's my nomination to have your account included in the @tenkminnows upvote list

avatar

@paulmoon410 is already a Minnow and so not eligible for votes. We concentrate on levelling up the smaller accounts. Established accounts should have built some support already.

avatar

I am sorry, I should have checked.

I am not 100% on this, but does each aquatic animal name correspond to a different total amount of staked Hive (HP) per account?

If this is so, is there somewhere you can refer me to where this information is stated?

avatar

The levels are based on VESTS, which are the internal blockchain representation of HP. You can see your number on HiveBuzz. When you get to a million you will be a minnow, then a dolphin at 10 million etc. They are just numbers, but someone decided to allocate these levels for gameify it.

avatar

Please I want to join. @patience2 is my username. Thanks boss

avatar

You need to build up your account a bit first. You need more followers and to have more posts. This scheme would only give you an extra few cents, so you still have to put in the work.

avatar

I am interesting to join, is the still space I am @pepefashion

avatar

You may be considered next time I review this.

Let's delve into the Builda whale farm on the Hive, Gogreenbuddy, who is also colloquially known as the Marky mark USAINVOTE UPMYVOTE IPROMOTE PUNKTEAM and 100's more if not thousands this individual has asserted that his intentions behind this initiative are driven by a desire to contribute positively to the community. Now, let's explore what he is earning on a monthly basis from this venture. income is said to be generated through the use of multiple alternative accounts, which he utilizes to cast votes in favor of his own shit content. The community seems to have mixed feelings about this practice many are scared to speak up.

Are you ready to delve deeper into this topic and uncover more insights? If so, let's proceed. It's time to wake up and gain a clearer understanding of the situation at hand.

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues

lol the Marky mark keeps dreaming

There's been a notable increase in frustration and concern among many users

Reply 2 @crimsonclad You may consider yourself clever

Reply to @crimsonclad

Consider revising the value plan, as it's not providing significant benefits to HIVE

The Value Plan, as it stands, seems to be a one-sided relationship with the HIVE platform, where the benefits are one-way

Actions indeed speak louder than words, a fact we've all observed individuals may talk a good game, a whole lot of shit, but their actions often expose their genuine nature LOL

We consider it unwise to engage in harmful actions, even if you think you can escape the repercussions

On Hive, there's a user who frequently burns a significant amount of Hive LOL with his own accounts

How To Fool An Entire Population

it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content

We began sharing factual information following unwarranted downvotes on Hive it's all in the transactions

Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content

Once again, we ask why is our legit content being downvoted on Hive and what is the reason behind it. Hivewatchers ADM spaminator steemcleaners guiltyparties logic

We have Hive witnesses farming Hive, self-voting, operating comment farms, and self-funding projects with community resources
