Transform your Comment into Cash

Steemit Comment Challenge Number #25 is here!!

Big shout-out to @jo5h, last week's winner. He did the awesome thing to donate a big part of his prize money to support this contest. Thank you @jo5h for the 4 SBD!

NO VOTING - This change was introduced last week. There will no longer be a Top5 based on the most voted comments. Instead, the winner and the 2nd place will both be selected by the judges.

The challenge now ends Friday morning and the winners will be presented Friday evening, based on UTC Time.

As I wrote in my last update, I have changed my view on bid bots and stopped using them on all posts except for my contest/challenge posts.
Although the ROI is not great, I have been able to increase the prize payouts with the extra earnings. But I think I will stop using them on these challenge posts as well...

Short term it might be beneficial to use the bots to boost payouts, but for the long-term success, I believe I will be much better off with "organic growth". In the same way I'm discouraged by posts with big bid bots, I'm sure potential long-term supporters would be discouraged by my posts as well. Let's see how it will pan out.

So expect prizes to be reduced gradually in the following two rounds.
Thank you for your understanding!

The partnership with the #newbieresteemday initiative will continue. I'm happy to have them by my side and I try to do my best to support their users. The Newbieresteem initiative is an excellent community for new Steemians. Their motto and this challenge are meant to strengthen interaction skills, to support and motivate better participation. And what better way to interact with others than through excellent comments.

Get ready to deliver some magnificent comments! Polish your keyboard and sharpen your mind, I wanna see those comments rolling in. Please show me what you have got!

It is important to get followers, but you also want the correct type of followers. Followers that are truly interested in your blog and what you write, and not the “I-follow-you-if-you-follow-me” kind of type. And to attract the right type of followers, you need to write godlike comments.

This challenge is all about writing godlike comments.

• In each challenge a post from a fellow minnow will be featured.
• The challenge is to write an amazing comment related to that post.
• I will resteem the post.
• I will give it a 100% upvote.

This will be part of my campaign to help other Minnows. The#minnowsupportproject helped me and I want to help others.

Join the challenge and practice your skills.

Please join the fun! 💓 💓

_{That will be me reading your entries...}

Rules and conditions

• Please mind the length of your reply. I don't want to have strict limits, but remember that your tasks is to write a comment and not a chapter for a book. ;)

• The 1st and 2nd Prize will be picked by the judges based purely on quality and their own judgment.
• If the judges can not reach a consensus, they will each pick one candidate and flip a coin. @dorabot will be used for this in MSP's Discord server.
• If the winner is not a Minnow, the prize will be split in 2 and the other half paid out to the best Minnow. After all, this is a competition to encourages Minnows, so hopefully that will be fair.

Challenge #25's Post - "THE MINNOW SCHOOL | Legacy is what matters the most!", by @bait002.

@bait002 writes about @steemexchanger, a Steem Exchange service in Nigeria to simplify conversion from steem to fiat. This service is part of the offline minnow school initiative. The minnow school was founded by @bait002, supported by @raymondbruce, @meemee, and @faetee. The steem exchange service hosted at https://steemexchanger.ng/ was designed by @atare.

The team is busy with expanding this service to other countries. In addition, they are eager for feedback and suggestions. Please check it out and let us know what you think and if you have anything to recommend.

Remember that a valid entry in this contest is a comment written below, but please feel free to add the same comment to @bait002's post.
