RE: Improving 😍 my skills as a 🐟 Witness!

in #witness-category7 years ago

Of course... my pleasure. It's similar to the person allowed to do PoS (proof of stake) but here, it's called delegated PoS.

I own certain SP (equivalent to owning a certain amount of coin to stake). Then people around steemit, have the freedom to vote in ANYONE, to decide which persons should be "staking" first. Which ones have more priority. Those will be the "Witnesses" that are in the first places on the table showed in my post. This one.

Everyone has to run the minimum node, to be a witness (that has some requirements in terms of resources... it's not like normal PoS wallets). Then when you get the "chance" to produce a block, you will win a percentage of the block. The remaining will be deposited in the pool that feeds everyone's posts and curations rewards.

To run a witness in STEEM is not like (AT ALL) running a wallet to stake coins... it's much more than that! Just because we need to "select" which persons are credible enough to sustain the network in a healthy way. Everyone should vote for witnesses... Have you voted yet? If not, please do care... it's important even for you!

Sort:  

I understood but i didn't know all the information that you said me here what can i do to participate in a witness group?

What you mean by participate? Voting? If that was the question, then you can vote at any witness you like at "Vote for Witnesses".

For any witness not showing on that page (for example me, forkyw), you need to vote for those in a box that looks like this:

If you referring to how can you become a witness... then I need to do looks for some posts or have a chat with you in steemit.chat... it will take some time.

But I am happy to explain the process. And then you can decide what to do.

But voting... yes please do vote. It's important to everyone on steemit, not just the witnesses.
