What does curation mean to you in Steem Blockchain?

In Steem Blockchain Curation happens when people upvotes your post or when you upvote people post especially quality content , you get some rewards inform of Steem Power. And if after upvoting you downvote the post the curation reward goes back to reward pool.

SP or Steem Power is the power in which the user has in the steem blockchain. The more Sp you have the higher your rank that why new users are always advice to build their SP and you can build your SP by powering up. Below is the key benefit of bilding SP.

How do you explain self-upvote as a good or bad social behavior & why?

Self Upvote can be define as the process where someone upvote his or her content on steem blockchain.

In my humble opinion self upvote is a bad social behaviour becuase you can't be the judge of your own content, you have to allow others decide the content you shared decerve upvote or not or if the content is actually free from plagiarism.

In addition some individual abuse their steem power by self upvote. Because individual with high SP, would upvote their own content and they will eventually receive both curator and author reward and this attitude does not promote steem blockchain.
