Hello @exceptional20 , I’m glad you participated in the 1st Task of the Beginner’s class at the Steemit Crypto Academy. Your grades in this task are as follows:

Observations:

Curation means the process through which a content or an uploaded posts are ranked and filtered based exclusively on users feedback.
Steemit as a decentralized block-chain based platform employ this type of curation. While providing monetary incentives to promote the visibility of high quality posts according to the perception of the participants.

I think you failed to understand the concept of curation. Curation is not all about reward and there’s more to curation than upvoting and downvoting posts. Curation is all about checking the originality of a post, it also includes taking your time to read a post and ascertain the quality and usefulness of the post to the Steemit platform and also ensure the post is free from plagiarism. Only then you can vote the post and share it with your followers to create a good network effect.

The ranks are 178 and 179 respectively
the steem price are $0.3468 and $0.3469 respectively.

You didn not indicate the marketcap of Steem. However, the marketcap of an asset can be calculated by multiplying the total circulating supply of the asset and the current price of the asset.

Recommendation / Feedback:

• You did great to answer the questions in your own words.
• There were some points you missed on **Curation and your answer on the last section wasn't detailed.
• There were some grammatical errors that can be avoided using Grammarly. So I suggest you use it in your preceding tasks.

Thank you for submitting your homework task 3. We hope to see the rest of your submissions.
