Welcome to The Daily Sneak!!!

You can earn up to 15 SBD per accepted submission for guest curating The Daily Sneak. Submission requirements are published at the bottom of each edition of The Daily Sneak. Based on the entries I have been getting, I added some clarifying remarks to the entry form. If you have submitted entries that have not been published, please review the new information in the form. If you are still unclear why your entry was not accepted, then please comment and I can provide specific details.

Today's guest curation is provided by @ecoinstant again! @ecoinstant is a man of all trades, diligently dedicated to making the world a better place through all of the tools at his disposal. Sustainable development is the end goal - let's all reach for it, building in peace and harmony.

Now, on to today's great selections...

Billion Oysters Project: one oyster at a time to bring marine life back to polluted New York harbour

This was just a crazy idea 7 years ago. People are out there, all the time, changing the world. @sashagenji is particularily good at finding them. Here we see a great group of people participating in the Billion Oysters Project, and you won't believe how close they already are to their goals. Oysters filter water, and since we humans are pretty good at muddying the waters, it seems that oysters are destined to be our allies! Check out this great article to find out more.

The time has come for us to stop thinking and dreaming, and to start eco-building! Just Do It! Watch This!

@eco-alex has been sharing his sustainable building journey with the Steemit Community for some time now. He has built several earthships, and each one that he shares with us gets better. We are learning with him, seeing what he saw, and watching reality get built! If you are interested in sustainable building or earthships, I recommend you check out @eco-alex, and this latest article!

5 Minute Freewrite - Prompt: rain

@mariannewest hosts the 5 minute daily freewrite, which is a fantastic new community full of helpful and happy people sharing their writing. At first I was unconvinced that the 5 minute freewrite could add value; it usually takes me hours to polish off a solid article, but I was very surprised! What you create in 5 minutes is often just wonderful enough to spend hours polishing! Give it a try - or check out the field!

Cryptokitties- This May Become My New Obsession

Have you heard about cryptokitties? Are you interested but not that interested? I have just the article for you! Thank goodness there are people like @simgirl in this world who will take the leap and let us know what its all about, and if it's any fun! She is already breeding kittens and has all the details for us to review.

Conclusion

Here are four more fantastic selections from @ecoinstant. He definitely sets the bar high for others to follow. For submitting these four great selections, @ecoinstant earns 12 SBD today. In addition, each of these choices receive full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja!

Submission Requirements

  1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
  2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
  3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will also not be accepted.
  4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent.
  5. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
  6. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen if you choose an author that was recently highlighted in The Daily Sneak, if another submission curates your same choices and is published before yours, or if the editors do not accept the quality of your submissions.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 3 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 15 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces. We hope that they will spend some of the SBD earnings to power up- but it's their choice.

Thank you so much for including me and the freewriters in the Daily Sneak!! so much appreciated!!

You're welcome!

The articles in order to be qualified, need to have used the sneakyninja bot ? Beause sometimes back I saw that rule, but not now. Is that changed now ?

That was an old rule, but we removed it to promote quality manual curation instead. You can always check the newest edition for the current submission guidelines and reward information.

Thank you for your interest!

Good job! Thanks to @josephsavage you have planted 0.13 tree to save Abongphen Highland Forest in Cameroon. Help me to plant 1,000,000 trees and share my Steem Power to the others. Selfvoting is prohibited, but that should be the reason to spread the world to protect our precious environment. Check out profile of our conservation association @kedjom-keku and the founder/coordinator @martin.mikes to get more information about our conservation program. My current SP is 14419.12. Help me to plant more trees with your delegated SP.

Thanks a lot,
your @treeplanter
