Steemhunt Delegates 15SP for All New Users Signed-up to Enhance its Onboarding Experience
From today, every new user signed-up via the Steemhunt Sign-up Interface to create a Steem Account will receive 15 Steem Power for a month to improve its onboarding experience.
Background
One of the biggest changes from the HF20 is that now Steem DApp is able to claim account creations by using the RC (Resource Credit). However, the new user account (that is used by the account creation token) is created without any SP value and just a minimum amount of RC (while the new accounts that are created by @steem get 15 SP delegated).
With this new system, there are two critical issues for new users across all services on Steem:
- The minimum RC is barely enough to make comments/upvotes.
- There is a bug that prevents new users from upvoting (it returns the minimum voting mana alert message without making the upvote action).
In the case of number two, the new account should be able to upvote even though it has zero SP (the upvote value will be zero, but the action itself should work). This bug was reported by @tabris four months ago, and will require another hard fork to fix the issue.
(When the new user clicks the upvote button, it returns the above message rather than performing the upvote action with zero value)
Other than the user powering up SP, the quickest solution is to delegate any plus SP value to the account until the user makes his/her own SP value (even with just 0.001SP the bug will be fixed).
Solution - Delegate 15 SP for the first Month
To be able to make regular app activities, the new account is required to have at least 15 SP. This amount will allow the new user to make at least 3-4 comments and 20+ votings per day.
So, from today @steemhunt will delegate 15 SP to the new users that are signed up via our Steem account creation interface and maintain the delegation for a month so that the new account holder will have enough time to create positive SP value.
This is the process:
- A new user signs up to create Steem account here - https://steemhunt.com/sign-up.
- @steemhunt delegates 15 SP immediately to the new account that is successfully generated.
- The delegation will be maintained for 30 days, and undelegated after then.
To protect our resource from any abusing attempts, we are running an automated algorithm for the new account creation in our interface. If any types of abusive actions are detected, or the new user is blacklisted, the SP will be undelegated right away.
(Steemhunt will delegate 15SP to the new users for the first month via Steemhunt.com)

Nice this will help attract more users to using the platform great work.
Excellent initiative to encourage new users ... Great ideas always...!!!
I think providing 15 sp new users to a great technique to cover the new users on steem blockchain.

A very good initiative and hopefully new users will understand the advantages you have now offered them. Being able to comment and vote immediately is the bare basics and I feel all accounts should have this to start.
Ha ha ha .... 1 month only... it aeems to me that you are so good in math.... these 15 sp will produce NULL rewards or in other words DUST and these poor new members will be fooled by this nice ads...
This is surely not for "giving money" for money. This is for letting the new user fully "experience" the DApps and blockchains. During the month the user will be able to use Steemhunt, Steemit, and all other Steem apps and have plenty chances to get upvotes by others (including us too). Without this sp, they won't be able to even have the chances to get upvotes because they can't create much content. For the most issue, the weird looking error messages will freak them out - bounced out.
Also, this will cost a lot for us even though it is 15SP delegation for just a month. Steemhunt should be able to maintain enough SP pool to support this for a mass level.
I have not recieved 15 sp
That delegation is for:
Your account seem to not be created via Steemhunt.
