Beyond Bitcoin: Whaleshares Hangout Announcement!
Announcing the New Whaleshares Hangout
We have been amazed at the community that has sprung up around Whaleshares these past few weeks. Built upon the foundations of mutual support and cooperation, our Discord server has become the fastest growing steem-related server where new users can come for help or advice from long time steemians in a spirit of equality. We now have over 700 people enjoying our drama-free mutual aid society and many community-building initiatives have already been started.
With this in mind, we thought it was time for this community to have a weekly hangout on the Beyond Bitcoin server where we can introduce our projects and initiatives to the greater Steemit community as a whole. Beginning next Sunday, July 2nd, we will be hosting our first Whaleshares hangout at 11:00 pm GMT on the Beyond Bitcoin mumble server. Check your local time here.
Whaleshares Hangouts will be hosted by @densgirl94 and @jphenderson where each week they will make any announcements of new contests, contest winners and new initiatives. Following these announcements we will focus on various topics of things that are currently relevant to both the Whaleshares community and Steemit in general.
And after this hangout, stick around for whaletank (to be announced in further detail in the future) to join a sharktank style event with @officialfuzzy and other whales who will distribute tokens to your project (if it makes the cut)!
We are the community coin of whaleshares, which means whaleshares hangouts will be there to help the helpers! SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Join our WhaleShares Hangouts and change the world with us, earn money in crypto and enjoy a drama free environment to build with your exponential value!
This Week's Topic -- Steemteachers!
For the first hangout we wanted to start with an initiative that is very dear to our hearts. Steemteachers will be a mentoring program hosted on the Whaleshares Discord server. Initially it will be a place where new users will be able to come learn about the Steemit platform. Eventually, we will be working to get schools involved in underprivileged areas where the students can learn how to get involved blogging on Steemit where they can earn desperately needed funds. It is our hopes that not only will this help the children learn skills such as English and Computer Literacy while simultaneously helping them earn funds to help feed their families and maybr even pay for college!

@officialfuzzy doing great work brother look fw to chatting more
Suggestion Fuzzy - if you want to open the environment to more people, you can't assume they know all the things you are talking about. I'm techie, and I'm willing to Google - but for example "Discord Server". Most people don't have a clue what that is. Then you jump from Discord Server to Mumble Server, but glad you provided the video. I've been listening to all the archived "BeyondBitCoin" shows, and learning a lot.
Tech sadly is not for everyone. A link to get people onto discord is the easiest thing i know of at present. However....mumble is our conference hall :)
First video on Discord Server done: https://steemit.com/beyondbitcoin/@nealwalters/steemit-discord-server-first-time-user-training-video

Thanks to @officialfuzzy , @densgirl94 and @jphenderson . Steemit is great because of you guys and your team working behind the scene to make here a better place for all.

Good post
Hopefully I won't spend $20 worth of BitShares to get an upvote worth $5 ;)
Hopefully u can do math then ;)
isn't buying your way up is unethical @officialfuzzy , or should newbies start investing to upvote themselves to the trending page...
How is it any less ethical than paying for post promotion, and from what I heard most post promotions were not that profitable.
I don't see anything unethical about it. The truth is most people that have huge payouts are friends with people that have a lot of SP (or maybe negotiating behind the scenes deals) and have a lot of auto votes. All Whaleshares does is give you an option to get into the game rather than sit on the sidelines.
No one get's hurt by the use of Whaleshares.
I suppose this is a grey area of Steemit. On one hand we should genuinely engage with the platform, but on the other hand we also need to be seen.
Most of the top accounts got there by buying steem and powering up... this just helps your posts get seen so that they can probably get noticed by more people if your content is good.
How else do you get to the top of the pyramid?
Thanks for showing ur ignorance ro how steem works.
By the way...is buying sp unethical? Maybe we should get rid of payment altogether and give it all to steemit.inc!
I wonder how much time u spend per day complaining instead of learning...
I hope this lesson helps...
ok after doing my complete research, i apologize and taking my words back, i will be supporting whaleshares now @officialfuzzy
I wish one day my 50 followers will be 5000 and my little $0.03 upvote one day could be $3000. Does dream truly come true? Tombs up to u guys. Together we can change the world
If you ca hold it in your heart, you can have it in your hand
good work!
