Balkan Steemit Alliance (BSA)
In example of the Croatian Steemit Association Server that was a small scale success, Balkan Steemit Alliance is being brought up. There has been an increase of Steemit users that are from the Balkan region in the past 6 months, roughly amounting to 400 users active and 15 weekly newcomers. This is the official initiative to create a community within and outside of Steemit that will cooperate on the grounds of decentralization and the crypto-currency. The idea behind this initiative is the connection already established between the Balkan countries, and many similarities shared, such as:
- Cultural and lingual similarities
- Similar economic structures
- Closeness of the borders that enables Steemit users to create major events
- Underdeveloped awareness towards the cryptocurrency and Steemit potentials
What is Discord and the Balkan Steemit Alliance server?
![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQc4zGHKHJmRYUVisoHeNRXFNFkT4q7Jd4NyiNDyvDH2Y/Discord%20SBA.png)
Discord is a (VOIP) Voice over Internet Protocol that has originally been built as a platform for the gaming exchange-communication, but is now being used widely across the net due to it's compact design and the ease of use, it currently has around 87 million users wordwide. It is being used across the Steemit as well, and one of the good reasons to use it, is the fact that you will meet many Steemians there, which in a turnaround will connect you with many friends that share your insights and can help you with the tasks you are yet to be familiar with. It's compatibility, compactness and the ease of use will help us organize many things, including meet up's, workshops and the potential Balkan Steemfest, you can join the server via the link below.

What are the goals and functions on this server?

ENTICE THE USER GROWTH
Bringing more users right now essentially isn't a good idea due to the spam many newcomers do, but within this group we will endorse the creation of good content and contribution to the Steemit community, encourage good posts with contests and their rewards, educate the newcomers and show them that this is more then just a "Facebook That Pays"

LOCATE THE BALKAN AMBASSADORS WITHIN STEEMIT
Our community as any other on Steemit will only grow if there is teamwork, and we need all the support we can get, Balkan ambassadors (the ones that have their foothold here on Steemit) here are a few, but you would be surprised what a few whales can change within this community.

DISCORD RADIO LIVE PROMOTION
In the example of some servers already doing this, such as "Steemit Ramble" and "Whaleshares", we will have our own post promotional hangouts, where everybody will have their turn to present their post with a 5 minute interview, be it in English or any other language from the Balkan region, in this way there will be much more appreciation to each others posts because we will get to interact with the post creators.

POSTPROMOTION CHANNEL ON THE BSA SERVER
On the Balkan Steemit Alliance server everybody has the opportunity to share their post 1 time a day in the
#post-promocija channel and promote others or the non-Balkan members via #promocija-tudjih-postova channel. In this way we will have easier access to the posts involved within/outside the BSA community.

CREATING MEDIA TUTORIALS FOR STEEMIT
Those who want to contribute some media tutorials in our native languages are always welcome to get involved, this will help us jump-start the newcomer Steemians, as it is currently a bit confusing for many new users how to do the basic functions of Steemit.
WORKSHOPS AND "STEEMFEST BALKAN 2018"
If there is any concern or doubts about making a fully fledged Balkan Steemfest, it is only because people are thinking in way that there is just a few of us and that our stubborn Balkan mentality will stand in the way, or that it is not possible to sync our time with each other due to distance (even if small). This is entirely not true and it is completely possible, think of it this way, we have a whole year to plan the festival and we can make it when the most of us plan to have free days/holidays, and the school/college is finished for the most of the people by then. This can happen in the coastal region of Croatia, on Exit Festival in Novi Sad Serbia, city of Sarajevo or Ljubljana, Skopje etc... Be it a gathering of two days or more, it can also work/merge in a conjunction with some other popular festivals, other similar gatherings, or even if it happens and we all agree on it, we can invest in our own small but private festival setup.
2 day festival can consist out of 2 daily workshops involving education about the Steemit usage, decentralization, and crypto world, and maybe +1 workshop that will be a hangout/workshop (i.e. cooking, music, sport etc...) and leaving evening for the hangouts around the city or the area where we will decide to create the event, anything similar what can be agreed upon gradually on the server by majority of the members.
We can also publish/announce the hangout/fest on platforms like MeetUp.com, Couchsurfing.com, Workaway.com and similar to attract more people interested about the event.
Other meet up's and gatherings on a smaller scale, between just a few people sharing a city or a county, will be encouraged via Balkan Steemit Alliance, this will help to create real life friendships which will enable even better communication and incentive within the community.
Education about Steemit and it's potentials to the new users
It might be hard to check for every Steemit user out there, and give him some insight on how to use this brand new and intricate system. But for specifically BSA server users, volunteer devotees on the server can work interchangeably to help educate all of the users specifically from Balkan region, to make sure all of the users are up to a date with Steemit functions, and are familiar with it's tools and rules, therefore by doing that improve the quality of the users and decrease abusive and spam behavior that many newcomers are not aware they are doing, by doing this we can create a stable Balkan community that will provide a good content and contribute to the original idea that Steemit had when it started, which is quality and stability.
HUMANITARIAN PROJECTS
![Humanitarian.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmcCJWB7UrgcYbQJxT7iuXf4Gt25v4dcK1XNChYy8bK1Gv/Humanitarian.png)
We have to agree on one thing, SBD is a pretty solid currency, be it on a rise or on a plummet. For us in Balkans the fact that 1 SBD equals double to quintuple of the FIAT dollar, means a lot more then for the countries with a stronger fiat currencies and we should respect this. We have a strong possibilities here to create impact-full humanitarian projects without damaging anybodies wallet, by how and when we can organize a joint donations to the "to be created fond", we will discuss later on "on the server", but one thing is absolutely sure, possibilities are big and lives can be changed.
Suggestion to do this is that the fond and the fond's account/password would be in a possession by all of the proven and trusted members within the community, the fund would be cashed out every month and transferred to a joint bank account that we would make on our first Steemfest, the account would be locked in the "savings mode/shares" in the bank until the date we provide to the bank upfront, which would be roughly around the next expected Steemfest. On the next Steemfest we would withdraw all the money together and transfer it immediately to the ones that need it. Every time we will have plenty of time, 6 months to decide to whom will the money go and who needs it the most, we will also never endorse a personal case to prevent the abuse of the fond, only unless someone has proven that it is the case of dire importance.
This bank account will be in a form of a stock that means that even if someone decides to take the money, it will not be possible to withdraw more than that person's share of the fond, the withdrawal that the bank of course requires other members to approve anyway. This makes it impossible to abuse the fond because we would all need to agree to take the money but that would only mean that everybody just gets their share they gave in the first place.
OFFICIAL INVITE TO ALL OF THE BALKAN USERS ON STEEMIT

Tvoje ideje in predlogi so zelo zanimivi. Jih tudi podpiram in upam da bo vsaj polovico od tega uspelo realizirat ;)
Hvala @worldfinances idemo pomalo pa budemo videli 😉👍
Pozdrav svima, evo nedavno sam se pridružio Steem-u i posto Steemian, neki savjeti za početnike ? Sviđa mi se ova ideja suradnje, nadam se dobroj suradnji i druženju :)
@bornazube ova inicijativa je bila kada je jedan SBD iznosio cca 70 Eura i to je cinilo Steemit jako primamljivim Balkancima tada, ja sam okupia sve koje sam pronaša tada i ucinia sve moguce cak i festival gdje je došlo više ljudi is cijelog svijeta nego naših, na žalost Balkan je Balkan, i mentalitet je jako skeptičan prema svemu novome, ovaj server je sada jako neaktivan jer je cijena pala na ispod 1 eura, ako zeliš provirit u grupe evo ti dole linkovi
HR Server: https://discord.gg/ExrYHh5
SRB Server: https://discord.gg/PGjvacm
BALKAN Server: https://discord.gg/BXGm8PS
Hvala ti Ivane, nadams e da će se ljudi opet vratiti, jer cijena će se sigurno vratiti. Sve ima svoje cikluse, a sada mi je žao što nisam bio na nekom od tih festivala :)
Probat ćemo ih aktivirat malo kroz postanje i optimizam ;)
Valjda ce doc na svoje ✌ slobodno se javi za ikakve informacije na discord meni
E nisam si jos stavio discord. To vidim da svi koriste.... budem, cujemo se. Javi ako ce se nesto organizirat :)
Pozdrav! Moj prijatelj @thesanto i ja @neven koji smo oboje iz Rijeke, Hrvatske
super @thesanto i @neven dođite na server :)
MACEDONIA - @tatjanastan , @steemitwarrior , @macedonianpilot , @teamaster , @dejanmk , SERBIA - @life.time , @oliverad , @rockystyle , @fortify , @handwork
Bravo @dobartim na tebe sam i racunao da ces staviti listu Makedonaca, dodam ih i pozovem 👍
Odlicna ideja, ja uskoro otvaram Steemit skolu u Makedoniji, sa kompjuterima i svim detaljima. Drago mi je da mozemo svi da se povezemo i da nastupamo zajedno. Cestitam
@dobartim Odlicno, drago mi je da netko ozbiljno shvaca potencijal kripta i Steemit platforme, cak toliko da i skolu otvara, svaka cast, pratit cu ti proces, pretpostavljam da ces postat ubuduce proces skole 👍
no function the discord
@angeltirado Discord server functions properly, and this server is only for the Steemit users living or originating from the Balkan region, cheers 👍 😎
Dobra ideja, podrzavam i rado cu se prikljuciti.
Jedini problem koji vidim u ovom trenutku je sto nigde ne vidim link ka discord serveru, ili sam zreo za promenu dioptrije ili si zaboravio da ga ubacis u post... zreo sam za promenu dioptrije, definitivno :DBok @dejan.vuckovic Promakao ti je 😉 ali evo još jednom klikni ovdje ispod, vidimo se
Cao. Možeš li me, molim te, dodati medju Slovenske user-e. Hvala ;)
@wonderlanding samo se javi u #slovenija kanal s pozdravom i dodat cu ti slovenski tag tamo na serveru 👍
zašto ne otvoriš kanal na oficijelnom Steemit Chat-u?
Bok @seckorama iz puno razloga, navedem par ispod:
(samo racunaj da ja nisam protiv steemit chata vec da navodim prednosti discorda)
Steemit Chat je trenutno jako spor i nepouzdan
(zna ne-raditi svima ili nekima ponekad i do dva dana, te ima jako puno bugova i poruke znaju biti ne poslane jako cesto)
Discord ima beskonacne mogucnosti kao što su:
Svaka čast na inicijativi i želji, nadam se da ćemo svi skupa rasti ;) Pozz!
👍 vidimo se tamo @frajer
