<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards, which are paid in the form of the [[cryptocurrency]] [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]].<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] are tokens that are either earned through posting on Steemit, or purchased by using [[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]]. Once steem power has been created, it has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Withdrawal of any amount must be requested and takes place over 13 weeks. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
====Whales====<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
<br />
====Orcas====<br />
<br />
An [[orca]] is the second-highest level of Steemit user.<br />
<br />
====Dolphins====<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
====Minnows====<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
====Redfish====<br />
<br />
A [[redfish]] is a new category of user, below that of minnow. It was introduced in spring 2017.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens. Through the wallet users can transfer steem or steem-backed dollars to other users or to exchanges off site, or trade it on the [[internal market]].<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the [[owner keys|owner]], [[posting keys|posting]], [[active keys|active]], and [[memo keys]], and there is a [[public key|public]] and [[private key|private]] version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, [[public domain]] images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the [[upvote]] button. While there is no [[downvote]] button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the [[rules of conduct]] on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />

<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards, which are paid in the form of the [[cryptocurrency]] [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]].<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] are tokens that are either earned through posting on Steemit, or purchased by using [[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]]. Once steem power has been created, it has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Withdrawal of any amount must be requested and takes place over 13 weeks. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
====Whales====<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
====Dolphins====<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
====Minnows====<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
====Redfish====<br />
<br />
A [[redfish]] is a new category of user, below that of minnow. It was introduced in spring 2017.<br />
<br />

<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards, which are paid in the form of the [[cryptocurrency]] [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]].<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] are tokens that are either earned through posting on Steemit, or purchased by using [[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]]. Once steem power has been created, it has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Withdrawal of any amount must be requested and takes place over 13 weeks. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />

<hr />
<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the [[owner keys|owner]], [[posting keys|posting]], [[active keys|active]], and [[memo keys]], and there is a [[public key|public]] and [[private key|private]] version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, [[public domain]] images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the [[upvote]] button. While there is no [[downvote]] button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the [[rules of conduct]] on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Redfish===<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />
=Steem-related apps=<br />

===How Do You Format A Wiki Post?===<br />
<br />

Wikimedia wikis provide much more advanced formatting options, but you can get by with just the basics from the link below.<br />

<hr />
<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the [[owner keys|owner]], [[posting keys|posting]], [[active keys|active]], and [[memo keys]], and there is a [[public key|public]] and [[private key|private]] version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, [[public domain]] images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the [[upvote]] button. While there is no [[downvote]] button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the [[rules of conduct]] on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />
=Steem-related apps=<br />
<br />
There are many steem-related apps and tools. Many are listed at [http://steemtools.com/ Steemtools.com].<br />

[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the [[owner keys|owner]], [[posting keys|posting]], [[active keys|active]], and [[memo keys]], and there is a [[public key|public]] and [[private key|private]] version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, public domain images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the upvote button. While there is no downvote button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the rules of conduct on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />
=Steem-related apps=<br />

[[Category:Strategy]]</div>Doulehttp://www.steem.center/index.php?title=STEEM_Tokens&diff=4001STEEM Tokens2017-07-04T04:23:00Z<p>Doule: added 100% steem power payment option and added info on liquid</p>
<hr />
<div>Steem has several types of tokens, '''Steem''', '''Steem Dollars''' (SBD), and '''Steem Power''' (a denomination of VESTS). Steem and steem dollars are [[liquid]] while steem power is not.<br />
<br />
When you are paid on the website Steemit, you can choose to be paid 50% in STEEM Power and 50% in STEEM Dollars, or 100% in steem power. Here's an example of a 50/50 payout: If you earn $200 on a post, you will get $100 STEEM Dollars, and 50 STEEM Power (assuming STEEM Power is worth $2 each, at the current time).<br />
<br />
It's also possible to receive STEEM tokens through other means, such as VESTS through [[mining]], or transferring STEEM Dollars to someone via [[STEEM Memo]].<br />
<br />
== STEEM ==<br />
<br />
Steem is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various [[cryptocurrency exchange|exchanges]]. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
== VESTS (Steem Power) ==<br />
<br />
VESTS are a type of token given to [[miner|miners]], [[Steem witness|witnesses]] and [[author|content creators]] and [[curation|curators]]. They are denominated as Steem Power on the website [[Steemit]].<br />
<br />
They are non-liquid, thus must be "powered down" before being able to trade them. Powering down Steem Power (VESTS) takes 3 months, and is paid out as 13 weekly payments. The power down rate will stay the same if you earn more STEEM Power while powering down, thus it's recommended to re-power down after earning a large amount of fresh STEEM Power.<br />
<br />
STEEM Power gains interest over time, and usually gains interest faster than the power down rate, thus you will still be earning interest while powering down.<br />
<br />

<br />
== SBD (Steem Dollars) ==<br />
<br />
Steem dollars are a currency which is pegged to the US Dollar. They can be converted on Steemit into STEEM Power (powering up), or into STEEM (easily tradable on various exchanges).<br />

<hr />
<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''''Steem''''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem tokens===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM_Tokens#STEEM|Steem]] is the standard [[cryptocurrency]] tradeable on various exchanges. Its value can fluctuate just like any other coin.<br />
<br />
===Steem-backed dollars (SBD)===<br />
<br />
The [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|Steem-based dollar (SBD)]] is a token that is meant to be worth about $1 USD, making its value much more stable compared to STEEM. To be a bit more technical, a steem dollar is a promise to pay one dollars worth of steem when it's redeemed.<br />
<br />
===Steem power===<br />
<br />
[[STEEM Power (SP)|Steem power]] has been locked in, meaning it can't be immediately withdrawn to spend. Steem Power is what gives users influence on Steemit. The more SP a user has, the more money they give to authors with an upvote as well as the greater the curation rewards they can earn. There is a very small 'interest' rate earned by holding Steem Power.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the owner, posting, active, and memo keys, and there is a public and private version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, public domain images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the upvote button. While there is no downvote button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the rules of conduct on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />
=Steem-related apps=<br />

There are many steem-related apps and tools. Many are listed at [http://steemtools.com/ Steemtools.com].<br />

The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />

A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />

<hr />
<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''Steem''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the owner, posting, active, and memo keys, and there is a public and private version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''. [[Markdown Editors|Markdown editors]] can also be used to compose Steemit posts.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, public domain images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the upvote button. While there is no downvote button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the rules of conduct on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />

A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />

<hr />
<div>A trending post is essentially a post with the highest payouts (for the post AND comments.) <br />
<br />
This has been tweaked since moving to the 7 day payout with older posts naturally moving down the list so we don't see the same things all week.<br />

<hr />
<div>A hot post is a popular posts at the moment, can be thought of as votes per minute. <br />
<br />
This is a part of why having early post traction (i.e. votes) is so important for those still building their following. <br />
<br />
Often this tab is what people look at to find more interesting posts or for better curation results.<br />

<div>This page discusses many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and includes a list of '''steem-related apps.'''<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />
[[Steemit]] is a [[blockchain]] based social network where the users can earn rewards.<br />
<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''Steem''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the owner, posting, active, and memo keys, and there is a public and private version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />
Posts by accounts that a user is [[following]] will show up in the user's [[feed]].<br />
<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
<br />
[https://pixabay.com/ Pixabay] has a large library of free, public domain images.<br />
<br />
===Plagiarism===<br />
<br />
Steemit has policies against [[plagiarism]]. '''Plagiarism''' is the wrongful appropriation and stealing and publication of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original work. Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Even on a platform such as Steemit, plagiarism means the same. Presenting another person's idea as your own in a broad sense constitutes as Plagiarism.<br />
<br />
==Curation==<br />
<br />
[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the upvote button. While there is no downvote button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the rules of conduct on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
==Witnesses==<br />
<br />
[[Steem Witness|Witnesses]] run computers that maintain the Steem [[blockchain]]. They are voted upon by the community.<br />
<br />

[[Curation]] is the act of '''up-voting''' a post or comment using the upvote button. While there is no downvote button, [[flag|flagging]] a post can remove rewards and make the material less visible. However, flagging should normally not be done except for situations where the author has deliberately and repeatedly broken the rules of conduct on the Steemit platform.<br />
<br />
==Reputation==<br />
<br />
[[Reputation System|Reputation]] is a piece of data that allows the network to communicate the "trust-worthiness" of any given member within the network. A user's reputation score is calculated from the number of upvotes their posts and comments have received and how much [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]] each of those accounts had behind them. The score is the number behind an account name.<br />
<br />
===Whales===<br />
<br />
A [[whale]] is a Steemit user who has built up a large amount of steem power and thus, their influence over aspects of Steemit such as voting power and payouts are quite extensive, especially when compared with new users. <br />
<br />
===Dolphins===<br />
<br />
A [[dolphin]] is a user who is relatively established on Steemit and who has built up a significant amount of steem power.<br />
<br />
===Minnows===<br />
<br />
A [[minnow]] is a user who is relatively new to the platform, or, who has yet to built up a large amount of steem power.<br />
<br />

<div>This page lists many of the '''main topics''' of [[Steemit]] and also includes resources for learning more about them.<br />
<br />
=Steemit=<br />
<br />

<br />
==Steem==<br />
<br />
'''Steem''' most commonly refers to the token money that comes in three forms - [[STEEM Tokens|Steem]], [[Steem Dollar (SBD)|steem-based dollars (SBD)]], and [[STEEM Power (SP)|steem power]]. [[Steem]] is also is the name for the blockchain database which the social media platform Steemit plugs into.<br />
<br />
===Steem wallet===<br />
<br />
On the Steemit platform, each user has a [[Steem Wallets|wallet]] for storing their steem tokens.<br />
<br />
==Keys==<br />
<br />
Every Steemit user account is provided with a number of different [[Steem Key Management|keys]]. They include the owner, posting, active, and memo keys, and there is a public and private version of each.<br />
<br />
==Posting==<br />
<br />
A [[post]] is a piece of writing, image, or other item of content published on Steemit. [[Markdown]] language and some HTML can be used to format them. For help, see ''[[Tips for formatting your post]]'' and ''[https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet The Markdown Cheatsheet]''.<br />
<br />
Posts that become popular are listed under [[Hot Posts|hot posts]] and [[Trending Posts|trending posts]]. They can also be [[Promoted Posts|promoted]].<br />
<br />

<br />
===Including images===<br />
<br />
For help on including images in posts, see ''[[Including images in your posts|this article.]]''<br />
