245th Steem Torch Carrier
I've heard of The Steem Torch that was started by @geekgirl 9 months ago when she sent off 25 Steem to start it on it's way! And occasionally I have seen it get passed to people I follow. Now it's my turn to hold it briefly and pass it along!
I was quite thrilled that the amazing @Traciyork chose to send me the massive amount of Steem that goes along with the Torch. Traci generously added 10 Steem to the pot so that I received 942 Steem!
And now I am beyond honored to be the 245th Steem Torch Holder! You can track many of the previous Steem Torch holders at @steemtorch.
Now it's my turn to pass the torch along! I am adding 8 Steem to the pot to make the total 950 Steem.
And now the torch goes to...
@Barbara-Orenya
I have chosen my dear and trusted artist friend @barbara-orenya to send the torch to. Barbara lives in one of my favorite places on earth, in Annecy, France and we have been friends since we first met each other on the now defunct Tsu platform, and learned our way around Steem together when we joined within days of each other in May 2017.

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide.
Barbara just told me about it. I had no idea about it before. Amazing it's been going around so long!
I think it ends up being passed around in communities that we do not necessarily belong to, so it drops from view for a while. Very glad you are talking about it with Barbara!
Well I am the lucky receiver now 😍
I love it!
Thank you 😍

Whats the point of the steem torch? And how do u know someone wont just keep the steem and not pass the torch? I think its really cool Im just curious..
You can read more about the torch and it's purpose at the links I shared. It is basically a social experiment. Sending the torch to honest and honorable people that we trust is an important piece! Besides, if someone stole the $125 worth of Steem, any good standing they had on the platform would be pretty well shot, don't you think? 🤔😜
I agree, but some people really suck.. lol.. I think its a really neat idea, i have just never seen it before and ive been on steemit for over 2 years!!
You can see all the honest and reliable Steemians at @steemtorch.
I wonder what the point of it is too. It sounds like a chainletter with nothing to win. Or will the steem be burned in the end and this will rise the value of steem? 💕

You can read about the intention of the torch at the links I shared in the post.
It's not all about winning sometimes. If one must, one could keep the Steem, that would be a win, but the integrity lost would be far greater unless one decides to leave steemit and doesn't care at all.
@livinguktaiwan That I understand but I do not understand the positive aspect of it. Will the money be used for a good goal like @hope.venezuela for example or?
The rules says "Funds can be donated to Steem based charities, distributed to minnows, or burnt. Torch keeper must not keep the funds."
This will happen when it reaches the last person who will make the decision. So to answer your question, yes there is a possibility that it will go to @hope.venezuela if it qualfies as a Steem based charity and the last torch bearer chooses to do so.
@livinguktaiwan Thank you very much for lighten me up. I wish you a great day. 💕
this.
WHOO HOO! Excellent choice, @melinda010100 and happy torch holding, @barbara-orenya!
Another wonderful Torch Carrier! Thanks for the gif! Someday you need to give me gif lessons.

Pointers would be great! 😁
