Small burnpost rule clarification
Several of the previous posts about @burnpost have stated the following
In no case will any coins from the account ever be sold, transferred, or powered down except to @null. Any value in the account can be considered as irrevocably allocated for burning either immediately or a some time in the future.
The bolded portion is unclear and in fact inaccurate, as SBD "coins" have always been sold (in order to buy STEEM). The intent has been that no STEEM coins will be sold (only kept within the account until eventually burned). When voting for @burnpost, voters can be confident that STEEM will never be sold by the account, only bought. Part of the idea of @burnpost is to leverage rewards to buy-and-burn STEEM, in order to increase its price and benefit all STEEM holders.
ht @whatsup for pointing out this issue.
All rewards from this post will be sent to @burnpost as a donation which will then be traded from SBD to STEEM, powered up, and/or burned in accordance with the usual @burnpost rules. That includes SP which will be immediately sent in the form of STEEM from my own account
Burn!!!...
Hey, little typo so pinging @whatsup :)
Fixed thank you
I was under the impression SBD were not coins but tokens
I don't know what the difference is between a "coin" and a "token" but in any case it is good to clarify the rules.
Coins run on their own blockchain where as a token runs on top of a blockchain to facilitate something else :-)
Thanks for the clarification. Especially when you are new to steemit, it's quite difficult to understand how the ecosystem works. Therefore, every help such as your clarification is appreciated. Many thanks.
As a new user I have to learn a lot on this steemit platform! So thoe old steemians content can help us alot to learn many more.
I found this post helpful.
Thank you,

hi im new to steam and could you explain this little more
"All rewards from this post will be sent to @burnpost as a donation which will then be traded from SBD to STEEM, powered up, and/or burned in accordance with the usual @burnpost rules. That includes SP which will be immediately sent in the form of STEEM from my own account"
Yes, instead of keeping the rewards on my post I sent them to @burnpost as a donation. You can read more about @burnpost in the last several posts in my blog but the quick summary is that @burnpost aims to stabilize the value of SBD near one USD (making it more useful) as well as increase the price of STEEM.

Great work! I think that burnpost had a great effect on stabilizing SBD.
