Open mic participants payouts more than double after hardfork19!
On the face of it, it seems like great news for those participating in, or thinking about taking part in the #openmic.
Below shows the comparison of the pending payout values before and after the hardfork:
Though it's early days, it looks like even before prizes, this might have become an even better way to capitalise on our music. I also think it's good that the lower placed entries are gaining a larger percentage to encourage participation.
Thanks to @pfunk and @luzcypher for supporting and hosting it!
I love openmic.
I love performing.
I also love making money.
The truth is if I have an audience I will perform for free.
But making money for performing is better.

@andybets.
Looks like the big game is about to start.
This is awesome, it's a shame I didn't post much this last week though haha. But damn what a great time to have entered the world of Steem!
Excellent! Good luck everybody. Resteemed!!
Great news! Thanks for sharing. Upvoted and following
Yeah 517% on my openmic post!, all of my post went up like that!
I originally joined steemit because of my interest in crypto currencies. It so happens that I am a composer and singer songwriter. I have never cared to post any of my stuff online much--I have enjoyed performing live. This social network, however has sparked a curious interest. Not for the potential money...I have a job that pays my bills...but for the new audience and community that I believe will grow exponentially. A new "underground" that may welcome something different. I am exited to find out and thanks for the info here. Though making profit is not my interest...it adds to the data pool of interesting contemplation.
Sounds like we have a few things in common. I joined for that reason too, but then discovered an outlet for my songs. I look forward to hearing your music.
Sweet!!! I'll be checking you and the rest of the music community out more too!!!
