@tipU Guide #5 - The Benefits of Sending Tips
Hi there!
Welcome to the fifth tutorial explaining @tipU service - we'll check are there any benefits to sending tips :)
Please feel free to check out previous guides:

Pros of sending tips:
Basically the whole idea of sending tips is to reward users that create valuable content. Of course we have the whole voting system on steemit for that, but:
- sending a tip does not deplete your voting power - you can send as many tips as you want and your voting power stays intact
- you can send tips that are more valuable than your vote - especially if you're low on Steem Power
- the recipient receives the SBD instantly - no need to wait 7 days, no Steem price variability that changes the tip value
- using @tipU you can just write tip! in the comment - no need to go to your wallet, load your whole transactions history, enter the transfer data and sign in the transaction with private keys. Super handy on mobile ;)
- @tipU will automatically add a comment praising your generosity - you can make this comment show your last post, your chosen link or just not add the comment at all (more on this on the tip guide)
So these are the benefits for a single user - but when you look at the whole community, sending tips helps to spread the reward pool of steemit more evenly across all users that create valuable content. In my opinion this is important in context of steemit.com succeeding as a social platform.
As for the cons - well, it costs you your precious SBD (when sending vote does not cost at all). But remember - what goes around, comes around ;)

The tip was sent, but comment wasn't added:
Thanks, I'll look into that.
Oh ok I saw that somone else sent a tip so thst might have been why the comment wasn't added.
Most probably I added comment manually under different post and within 20 seconds the service tried to add another comment - and you can comment only once every 20 secs. Should not happen again :)
