Conversion Report
Now automated at 10-minute intervals, if there is STEEM present in the account the bot will sell it on the internal market for SBD at a max rate of 300 STEEM per cron interval, this rate can be adjusted in Config Vars.
Thereafter, all available SBD is placed into conversion automatically.
The code repository can be seen on this Github link.
If you would like to see the code in action, donate STEEM directly to @sbdpotato and watch the bot do its thing on https://steemd.com/@sbdpotato.
Feel free to follow the conversion progress via the links below:
Conversions in progress (API): 1957.223 SBD
Total conversions since inception (API): 12108.83 SBD
Vote for this post to help fix the Steem Dollar Peg!
In case you missed it; here is THE LINK to the intro post about @sbdpotato.
TLDR, you vote for @sbdpotato's daily posts and the rewards @sbdpotato earns will be used to purchase SBD on the internal market, convert it to STEEM (reducing the SBD supply) and then the converted STEEM will be used in a circular fashion to purchase more SBD - Rinse Repeat! That's basically it!
Today's SBD Price (Spot): 0.591 USD
Current Debt Ratio: 16.04%
Target Debt Ratio: 9.90%
What do you get out of supporting @sbdpotato?
Well firstly by voting this post you will be helping fix SBD to get it pegged to 1 USD again as it was meant to, this could also help bring the STEEM price up with it. There is a theory that the two are circular, a strong SBD gives support to healthier STEEM prices, perhaps due to positive sentiment in the network.
In addition to doing your part to improve the economy of the Steem network, you will also earn SP curation rewards from voting the post that hopefully get decent traction.
You can set the @sbdpotato account on autovote using a service like beta.steemvoter, by creating a stream to autovote the @sbdpotato account at around 4 or 5 minutes as per the screenshot below. There are also other autovoter services you can use if you prefer.

As custodian of this project I, @thecryptodrive, will not derive any monetary value therefrom and undertake this under my duty as Steem consensus witness and ambassador.
When the @sbdpotato funds are no longer required to support the peg, they will be sent to @steem.dao where the community can then decide what they should be used for.
I hope the Steem community will embrace this idea of supporting the SBD peg by voting the @sbdpotato posts regularly, alone we are powerless, together we can bring about change.

As much as i believe that the project is important, i am one of those that feel that the posts create a strange atmosphere at the trending page. Specially for the newcomers.I have an idea that i think could make the posts better without reducing their function and importance. You could choose a creative post that you like,use an image from there along with the link to original post and the name of the author, the rest of your will remain the same. In this way you will have a nice first image and bring a little attention to the creative author:)
Good sentiment but that makes it very manual, this project is run for free and already takes up alot of time. Curating and choosing posts etc would also make it so we can't automate these posts, the best solution is that the SPS get voted so we don't have to rely on posts anymore.
That's understandable @thecryptodrive, it takes time and efford indeed. But also the proposal could take time and maybe not get voted. I am daily curating for various communities (curie, c2, creativecoin) and for quite some time, i can help you if you like. If you give me a discord address i can send you daily a photo along with the link and the author's name:)
Hold trending hostage to get your way? Great approach.
That makes me sooooooo want to vote for that proposal, all right.
Makes me want to squat on the Return Proposal. ;)

Do not be dumb. This is not what is helping. Use your power for good and upvote real people posting on the network. This is just a waste.
@thecryptodrive is onto something here people. I think that everyone should consider converting their SBD to Steem when SBD is under $0.95 through the conversion mechanism and not on the internal exchange. This would help reduce the SBD debt ratio on the network by reducing the supply of SBD, and would likely help to increase the price of both Steem and SBD (back to $1 peg).
