The Curation Trail for Minnows - Join TrailBlazers

Join Trail Blazers

What is Trail Blazers?
We are a curation trail with a focus on curating good content and rewarding creators.
Come and join the trail so we can all grow together!

OUR GOALS

We want to uplift content creators that need exposure and don't have a lot of STEEM or followers yet.
We want to reward hard working content creators that need help or are just starting out.
We are here to help minnows grow into WHALES while growing the Steemit Community!

BENEFITS

• We've designed our curation trail to encourage growth and reinvestment in STEEM and STEEM Power with different levels. As you grow your STEEM Power you can move up the levels and earn more.

• Our level system is designed to benefit users at the bottom most while encouraging growth to the next levels. The easiest levels to move up are the first 3 levels.

• When you are a member of trailblazers you will get upvoted by the trail 2 times per day. You can post as much as you want but only 2 of your posts will receive upvotes by the trail. This is to ensure voting weight stays high so that all members receive benefit.

• If you don't meet the minimum STEEM Power requirement to be curated, you can still follow the trail and earn curation rewards.

LEVEL SYSTEM

Our level system is designed to benefit users most at the bottom levels but also encourage growth and reinvestment in your STEEM Power. We do this by making the first 3 levels the easiest to move up and we put a cap on the highest level at 10,000 SP.

200 STEEM POWER ----> 1% Upvote by trailblazers
500 STEEM POWER ----> 5% Upvote by trailblazers
1000 STEEM POWER ----> 10% Upvote by trailblazers
2000 STEEM POWER ----> 20% Upvote by trailblazers
3000 STEEM POWER ----> 30% Upvote by trailblazers
4000 STEEM POWER ----> 40% Upvote by trailblazers
5000 STEEM POWER ----> 50% Upvote by trailblazers
10000+ STEEM POWER ----> 55% Upvote by trailblazers

As you can see, the first 3 levels are designed to be the easiest and most rewarding for the least amount of STEEM Power reinvestment.

Getting in at the 1st level is only 200 SP.
Moving up to the 2nd (5%) is only 300 SP.
Moving up another level from 5% to 10% is another 500 SP.

After that, every level is 1000 more SP for another 10% vote, until you reach 10,000 SP.

At that point (10,000 SP) you will only move up 5% more and are now at the top level.

There are no more levels after 10,000 SP because at that point you have grown beyond what our trail's purpose is...
Helping the minnows!

If you make it to the top level, you are welcome to stay a member but remember our goal is to help those at the bottom move up. If we helped you move up, we hope you'll consider staying a member to give back to others.

REQUIREMENTS

To reach our Goals, we have a few requirements in place to ensure fairness and not get stretched too thin.
We have a limit on the number of users that we will curate and to be curated you must meet the minimum requirements.

Our current goal for membership is 100 users, at which point we will assess the overall health of the curation trail and determine if we can sustain more members.

Anyone can follow the trail to earn curation rewards but only those who meet the requirements will be curated.

1. First you have to follow the trail. The instructions to do so are in the HOW TO JOIN section.

2. If you have at least 200 STEEM Power and are working hard at creating good content, we will curate your posts.

3. You must try to maintain your Voting Power above 90%. This means you should not do a lot of outside voting.

4. Your content must be good. Good is a subjective term and we realize that what is good to some may not be to others. What we are looking for is effort, creativity and engagement. If you are striving to hit all three of those things with your post it will most likely be considered good. We do not support or upvote NSFW content.
