This is an update to my #fundition campaign to produce and publish a course on the STEEM Economy.  You can read the initial application and news here with this link: https://fundition.io/#!/@paulag/yl5013tub 

This course is an entry level course for those using STEEM that need a better understanding of the Ecosystem and Economy.

So far I have shared with you the 6 videos and you an find links to these at the bottom of the post. Thank you to everyone for supporting this project.

Today I am delighted to share two further tutorials on the STEEM Ecosystem. Today you will learn about voting mana and resource credits.

I have a big shout out to do on these videos as the English closed captions were created by @allseeingewe and have been published on both Youtube and Udemy.  Thank you sooooo much @allseeingewe for your help on this.  You are a massive star.  I hope some of you reading this will hop over to @allseeingewe and show a little support.

Requirements

A desire to learn more about the STEEM ecosystem.  A STEEM wallet would also be a benefit.

What is Voting Mana?

Formally known as SP, voting mana is how much power you have to vote with.  In this lesson you will learn what voting mana is and how you can increase it.

Voting mana and voting weight are two different things, in this lesson you will learn the difference between the two and how they interact.  You will also learn how to find out what your vote is worth

Description

In this second video tutorial you will learn

What are resource credits?

Resource credits are the credits you are given to transact on the blockchain.  In this lesson we will discuss the idea behind resource credits and the resources used in the calculations.

Why are there fees?

Blockchain is not free, there are server costs and running costs.  So, if there is a cost in running a blockchain there must be fees.  In the lesson we will discuss the need for fees when running a blockchain like STEEM.

How Many resource credits do I have and what can I do with them?

Resource credits are directly related to the SP you hold.  These credits are used to pay the transaction free when you interact on STEEM.  In this lesson we will discuss your resource credits and what you can do with them and where you can check your balances.

How much does it cost me per transaction in resource credits and how can I keep track of this?

Its important to keep an eye on your resource credits so you know how much you can do on the block.  If you don’t keep an eye on it and run out of credits you will not be able to transact.  In this lesson we will look at tools available in keeping track of what it costs and what you have.

How can I increase my resource credits?

It is possible to increase your resource credits, powering up is a critical element in this. in this lesson we will discuss how you can do this.

Hello @paulag,

Thank you for doing such great video tutorials!

It is so good that these tutorials are up-to-date and done after the HF 20. I am sure many people appreciate the new information given here.

Your presentation is engaging and nicely done.

There is a typo at 1:14 in the first video.
It should be 'voting' instead of 'viting'.
You might want to correct that for the other platforms.

Somehow the audio of these videos are not as clear as the other ones.

Look forward to your next video,
Rosa
