Please join new #Club 50 50. Power Up and invest in your Steem Future

Hello everyone!!

As a founder of Steem Skillshare I am officially announcing that Steem Skillshare Community is happy to support and join new initiative of SteemitBlog called #club5050. I strong believe that it's our chance to invest in our future. I know that many of you would think that will cut your earnings and that the votes are not guaranteed but if you look at the bigger picture you will see that it will be beneficial for any active Steemit users who publish quality post. The platform will grow bigger and with increased number of accounts with sufficient amount Steem Power we can make the difference and save funds for the future.

The current global situation in the world shows us that we can rely only on ourselves. The global economy is not stable and cryptocurrencies show positive trend and big hope. We are all lucky to have Steemit at this chaotic time in our history. I see # club5050 as a big opportunity to all Steemians. We will see how the initiative will proceed but I believe in the decisions made by our curators.

This month of October Steem Skillshare was extremely lucky to be selected as Community of the month thanks to collaboration with Steem Infinity Zone. This showed to all our members how support is important and beneficial was the support from @steemcurator01. Our Community grew and the number of Active members reached new record. We strongly recommend all our users to join this Initiative in order to be selected as the Community of the Month.

The Communities of the Month program for October is now well underway.
For November we are going to take the program in a new direction.
The emphasis for the program will still very much be about building community strength with a view to achieving increasing self-sufficiency, but this time we are adding a new element.
You may have already seen mentions of #Club5050 that we ‘soft launched’ a couple of days ago.
Club5050 is all about encouraging people to cash out less and power up at least 50% of their earnings.This will help increase their influence on the platform and build the strength of the Steem economy.
With the very positive feedback we have received already for Club5050 we have decided to make this the key element of November’s Communities of the Month Support Program.
Club5050 - How it works
Club5050 is all about encouraging people to invest in their Steem future.
We want more people to power up more of their earnings rather than continually cashing out.
This will help grow the Steem economy which will benefit everyone on the platform.
With Club5050 we are looking to give extra rewards to people who make a commitment to power up at least 50% of the liquid rewards they earn.
This should be an ongoing commitment, not a one-off, post-by-post event.
To take part in Club5050, anytime you cash out or transfer away any STEEM or SBD, you must power up an equal (or greater amount) at the same time.
You don’t need to make a special power-up post - you just need to add the #club5050 tag as one of the first five tags on your regular posts.
We monitor the #club5050 tag, and for good quality posts using the tag we check the wallet of the author for the last seven days or so.
