I thought this was an interesting topic and engages the conversation on the question featured on the post. Please Check out your fellow Steemian's blog. Blog's on various topics and speaking from more than just a woman's perspective. You can always engage in a interesting conversation on Steemspeak radio.

What is Vote Interest Pool(VIP)?


VIP in a new project and an initiative to reward voters for... well... voting. You are already given this from the 25% deducted from post rewards and given to the curators as part of the Steemit platform standard. With VIP, you will be rewarded on top of this.

Similar to @steemsports, but the main goal of VIP is to progress the Steemit platform and have more steem/sbd/steempower distributed to everyone. The more everyone one can get, the better.

In order for VIP to be successful, it will need the community's help. As far as I seen here on Steemit, it shouldn't be much of a problem. Almost every user is rethinking how they use a social platform and trying to help Steemit grow. I am confident we can accomplish this and everyone can feel the VIP treatment.

VIP Feature


Every new post will feature a "VIP Feature" post created by fellow Steemians. To better the Steemit community in quality, this feature was created to support verified users on Steemit and get the community interacting more together.

In order to be featured on a VIP Feature, jump on Steemspeak radio and say hello and meet others in the Steemit community. Who know's, you may run into @charlieshrem or @ned in there :)

Once verified and we know you have a voice and are not a robot, You will be randomly queued to have your most recent post for the day to be featured for the VIP Feature. once you made it on the random queue list, one of your most recent posts will be featured once every 3 months to allow others to be featured.

The @voteinterestpool account will automatically vote the post featured for VIP Feature on the authors account.

VIP Bonus


At the bottom of the post, there will be 2 topics to choose from. Choose one and leave a comment giving reasons why that is your choice. The comment with the most votes will earn a reward of 5% from the pool.



How It Works:

  • vote on the post.
  • After 24hrs the post and comments will be entered into the vote interest pool.
  • 25% is deducted from the voting reward as standard by Steemit curation rewards payout to curators.
  • Checkout the "VIP Feature" post from a verified quality Steemit member of the community.
  • Have a chance to win a "VIP Bonus" by choosing one of the topics and the bottom of the post and leave a comment explaining why you chose that comment. The most votes earns 5% reward from the pool.


Vote interest Pool:

  • From the 24hr payout period, the remaining 75% will be 50% Steempower for authored post, 50% STEEM and Steem Backed Dollars(SBD). Similar to @steemsports, we will convert the SBD amount to STEEM on the internal market to achieve the total Vote Interest Pool.
  • 10% will go to the VIP Featured post author. The benefits of "VIP Feature"
  • 5% will go to the VIP Bonus reward payout.
  • From here ALL of the 35% will be distributed to EVERYONE that voted using the power up method to have everyone receive payment in SteemPower.
  • Posts will be made almost everyday as I have other projects I am working on and need some days off :P
  • @voteinterestpool will be excluded from the VIP pool reward but still vote since the account will receive 25% in SteemPower for authored post curation reward :)



Example:


If the VIP post hits a reward value of $500 after 24 hrs, automatically roughly $125 will be deducted for the 25% curation voting rewards.

The 75% remainder:

50% in SteemPower value of $187.5 will go to the @voteinterestpool account for the author post curation reward.

10% goes to the author on "VIP Feature" at roughly $18.75 value in Steempower

The remaining 40% rewards will be roughly $168.75 and distributed to 300 voters if the post reached $500 by 300 votes.

Everyone will receive roughly $0.5625 value in SteemPower.

So let's shoot for $1000+ so everyone who votes will get over $1 worth of SteemPower!



@voteinterestpool account voting:


Other than "VIP Feature" author's post @voteinterestpool account will follow voting trail of @instructor2121 and @fyrstikken because they are reputable members that are doing contributions to the Steemit platforms and are good judgement on quality posts and users on Steemit, if the event the @voteinterestpool account becomes large enough to have large voting power. This will ensure voting will be distributed outside of just VIP.

Disclaimer:


  • @voteinterestpool may be subject to changes in the future to maintain operation
  • If the VIP dividends are are less than 0.0001, it will carry over to the next VIP payout.


Special thanks


@instructor2121 for contributing to this project

Can't forget the Steemspeak crew. Their support motivated me to keep going so I wouldn't have made it this far without them. @fyrstikken, @proctologic, @contentjunkie, @inertia, @krnel, @sykochica, @patelincho, @tee-em, @noganoo, @pharesim, @mughat, @applecrisp, @raymonjohnstone @creationlayer, @shneakysquirrel, @pickokernel, @ausbitbank, @poeticsnake, @kiddarko, and anyone else I forgot to mention.

Note: There are probably many of you have wondered who created this project and maintaining it but it's not hard to figure out. I want VIP to be a community success and didn't feel like I needed the mention as the special thanks mentions those that have contributed insight on what they felt was needed for Steemit. I'm just another Steemit user learning something new.
Thank you,
@bitcoinparadise

This should be interesting... :P

Neither! haha :P(please don't vote on this comment)

I voted, whatcha going to do about it? lol

lol then I guess I have to give this account the reward if it wins. :P(it will just go to the next highest votes if it does happen :P)

not that i have a dog in the race but it should be Hillary. I've found Trump to be disgusting long before he ran for US Prez and my opinion of him has not improved. He is not suited to the highest office in the US.

I have a similar view but to me, I would have not chosen Hilary as the democratic presidential nominee. I think many people feel they don't have much of a choice.

your system only allows for two choices and my choice would never be that buffoon. While people may not like Hilary, she at least has a clue how to run a country.

I agree with you on that. Running a country is completely different from running a business.

Thanks for the shoutout! I was happy to donate to the @voteinterestpool project. I think it's a great initiative and that it's got some serious potential.

Oh it was very generous of you. I appreciate the support and I think it's importing to show the community that VIP is really a community effort. The more the we come together on this project, the better we all will do :)

Hillary's biggest supporter is Trump. The Podesta emails prove Trump is exactly who the DNC wanted as the republican nominee. He is the only person who could lose to Clinton.

Hmm interesting perspective... That deserves a vote! who will win this race? lol. All jokes aside, This was a great one.

Hillary should be the better choice, because Trump is an absolute no go. If there were a third option I would be very happy for America and myself...

What would be your "third" option?

There should be a candidate who has plans and motivation to solve the main and important problems of whole America and not only to defeat the opponent in a most ugly way! He or she should be a serious and strong person with a backbone...

We're given the choice between a criminal liar and a lying criminal. Not a real choice.

The Trump one, because like the man, there is no substance to it.

I admit, he has skills in business.

umm... bankrupting his daddy's money multiple times is not skill in running business.

Well I don't think many people could come back in the business world like that. Especially bankrupting more than once.

you'd think that on the surface. I rather expect that the bankruptcy laws there are not any stricter than up here which means, you can bury a lot to get started back up with. The bankruptcy dumps the debt and leaves the money ready to go. That makes him crooked more than smart

Yep. I thought that was ridiculous during the debate when Hilary said trump has not payed taxes and his response was "I call that smart." So does that mean people who pay taxes are dumb? Then why are we paying taxes if that's a stupid thing to do?

Neither. They're both frauds. But if I had to choose based on their political experience - we already know that Hillary is toxic as a politician and is a shameless liar. Trump hasn't held any office yet, so he wins by default.

We're screwed either way. Such is government and politics. Maybe we should consider alternatives to this perpetual nonsense?

Well it may be perpetual but we're going to have to face the fact that one of these candidates will be the next President of the U.S.

Neither, politics is an illusion.

I'm curious, why is it an illusion?
