Which Ones Of These Steemy Ads Do You Want To See Go Viral? 💙 You Can Now Vote For Your Favorite "60 Seconds of Steem"!
There is no power of change greater than a community discovering what it cares about. - Margaret J. Wheatley
That was exactly what I thought when browsing through all those amazing entries to the #sixtyseconds contest.
36 videos from 29 different creators were submitted during the past two weeks, and it was very interesting to see the different ways in which Steem can be advertized.
Here are some of my biggest takeways from the messages transmitted in the video ads:
- Steem and steemit.com go hand in hand.
- Being rewarded for content creation is (still) the no. 1 selling proposition.
- Steem is an opportunity for people and businesses.
- Steem can be many things to different people.
Now I'm glad that the winners will be selected by the community, because I honestly couldn't tell you which one of them I liked best.
Let's go start the voting!
Pick your winner!
It's gonna be a tough decision, so please take your time to vote for your favorite steemy ad.
The voting will end with the payout window of this post (in 7 days from now). Winners will then be ask to set up a celebration post since we have a couple of sponsors who promised bigger upvotes to the winning artists. But I'll provide you with more details, once we know who the lucky creators are!
The entries are listed by payout as follows, starting with the most expensive one. Once you've decided who you want to vote for, you'll find your favorite creator down in the comments.
You vote for your favorite entries (as many as you want) by upvoting the corresponding comments, the voting is stake weighted (as announced since the very beginning).
You can go check out the @dtube videos by clicking on the account names below or by browsing through this list on steemit.com.
Honestly, I recommend you to go have a look on the entire list and then come back here to vote for your favorite ad. This may be the most comfortable way.

Fun fact: While I put this post together I lost my internet connection about a hundred times (cheers to the island life!). When I had finally set up the post on dpoll I suddenly realized that this app doesn't allow you to introduce more than 20 anwers (entries). Yay! We've got 36 here... So I had to start from zero again and create the post on eSteem Surfer. What a night!
I hope you guys have fun with this voting and those five hours were worth it :-)
See you in a week for the award ceremony!
Happy weekend,

I share your opinion - have been voting for these two as well (and two more, haha) :-) It's really hard to decide which is actually a brilliant sign!
We honestly liked this one the most.
My favorite for sure!
@ashtv for the win. :D :D :D
There's a hard battle going on fighting for the top 3 :-))
Who knows what will happen. The community is deciding, exciting times!

Beautiful Steemy Coffee intro @ashtv
I loved "This guy just made more money than he would in a year on Spotify" whatever that is.
Nice jab at facecrook. Looks like she is not making money.
I hope to be giving you a 100% vote as one of the winners.

@olegw: The power of Steem (1st entry)
Hi @surfermarley! I will vote once I get the chance to review all of the contestants..... potentially this weekend.... but next time you should consider using DPoll as a voting mechanism. It’s a STEEM based polling application by @emrebeyler which would make it very easy to keep a tally for something like this!
Cheers :)
https://dpoll.xyz
Posted using Partiko iOS
Hey Jeff! As mentioned in my post above, I would've loved to use dpoll but it is limited to 20 answers and we have 36 entries here. It took me two hours to set up the whole thing on dpoll until I noticed that the app is limited in such way. Maybe @emrebeyler wants to consider improving the tool accordingly...
Ahhh I’m sorry, I apologize for not reading that far... that is a shame. I’m sure he will consider the change, it seems to be a work in progress currently at the very early stages. I can think of lots of different contests/polls where 20+ poll responses would be necessary. Regardless, have a nice weekend!
Posted using Partiko iOS
No probs, it's a long article... I wish it was structured in a different manner but we don't have any better tools on Steem right now. So I tried to put this together in the best way possible. If someone has an idea on how to make it better, then I'm completely open to that.
My weekend starts now - so thank you and best wishes for you, too! :-)
I guess we can increase the limit to 50 or 100. What do you think? @surfermarly
Sounds great :)

Best of luck @pranto
Keep good work @surfermarly
...
He spams me via Discord to beg for upvotes. He obviously doesn't deserve this.
Yeah, he spams me too.
Have you asked him to not send you direct messages then before exposing him in public? Might be a fair step :-)
Steem on 🤙
As a community mate, Yes I sent him, Then I realized my mistake that it was my mistake then I apologized.
Actually, I'm new in discord. To be honest, I joined many community about a month ago such as #bdcommunity #drisers #duinte #onelovedtube and #steemitbd. So I don't has so many idea/knowledge about it but I'm always trying to learning from my mistakes.
After all, I never lose, I never give up.
I believe,
Therefore, I need an chance to prove myself that I deserve it. So I will waiting for your response @surfermarly
Love lots @pranto
No worries @pranto. I can't see you did anything wrong here, so you should just move on and skip pages :-)
Steem on 🤙
@surfermarly you're the best... And @pranto I wish you win this buddy... You're passion and honesty is pretty awesome to watch!
I think spam is a hard word in that context. People are very excited about this contest and many have invested a lot of time and efforts to participate. The prize pool is incredibly attractive, so I understand that the creators want to get as much attention for their entry as possible. Probably not everybody is a hero when it comes to sensitive self-marketing, yet i don't think that should be a reason to say that he doesn't to deserve to win the contest.
You should rather blame @pranto for not spelling my name correctly in the promo message 😉
xD Suffermarly would be worse :P
Hahaha, you're damn right @ivansnz - it always depends on the point if view, ain't it? :-D
absolutely haha
I think spam is the right word if you send several users randomly a direct message and asking for an upvote.
@pranto best funny video
Really! Thanks for sharing you feedback

Peace.
Yo Yo ! I'm Glad you liked it Boba !
Thanks For The Vote :)
CHeers!
Good promotion mate. Your video creates good awareness regarding applications on Steem. Your video shows what this blockchain has to offer rather than simply promoting it as a place to make money. Considering where Steem is in its life cycle your advertisement is appropriate. I hope you win, I have a feeling you might ;)
Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback !
I'm too glad that you liked my style and the way it was presented :)
Yup, I believe that STEEM should be spread as a place to SHARE & GAIN rather than just an earnin source.
Hehe... I too have a same feeling like yours ;)
Cheers!
You amazing creation, that's a high end move. Also do like the transitions, professionally done.
Thanks a lot dude :)
I'm glad you liked it ;) Thanks for the Vote tooo !!!
Cheers!
Hey @steemersayu907! I'm just reviewing all the entries according to the established rules for the contest, since the decision day is coming closer.
I have a question regarding the song you used for your video which I just identified as Michael Aasen's song "Problem".
Where did you download the music, is this a royalty-free song? I'm asking since we're planning to spread the winning clips all over the internet as advertisement for Steem, and we need to act 100% according to the copyright law. If this wasn't a royalty-free song, we wouldn't be able to use the clip as official video ad for Steem.
In advance thanks for getting back :-)
EDIT: If you decide to not reply to this comment (or one of my comments on your posts as well as the discord message) and if you can’t prove the music is royalty-free before the voting ends, then this video will be disqualified. Thank you!
Hello @surfermarly, I'm so sorry for the late reply. I have explained why I was late and DM ed you the reason.
But see, the song I used for this video was from a website which provided only NO-COPYRIGHT songs. I often use em'. But for this case which one I used, I don't remember but I assure you that this won't face any copyright issue.
I've been using many songs from the internet offered by NO-COPYRIGHT websites and this one too came from one of them. I really don't remember from which website I picked it because I downloaded many songs for the edit and finalized this one.
I've been using such websites from a long time and have never faced a copyright issue till now. So I believe that this song too can't be copyrighted. On the other hand I didn't took the full song which I downloaded, I just took a part. Slashed some part from the starting and some from the end and kept some part of the middle portion. This can't be Copyrighted :)
I hope my little entry is still eligible :-)
I again Apologize for the late reply ...
Hi @steemersayu907! I have been searching the song all over the internet but the only sources I can find is Spotify, Amazon, iTunes and Youtube.
You need to provide me with the link where it says that the music is royalty-free, otherwise I can’t accept the entry.
I furthermore sent a message to the producer himself on Twitter:
That is actually something you should’ve done by yourself being the creator of the artwork. I mentioned if from day one: a commercial video ad cannot contain any third part elements, unless you’re holding the copyrights.
If we don’t get a positive response from the producer or you can’t provide me with the needed information til the contest / voting ends, I won’t be able to let your entry pass.
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
Hello @surfermarly,
I heavily regret not keepin the source link with me, but I've good a lil scope of proving that this can't be copyrighted.
I have check throughly upon YouTube's music policies and also looked ut for
the song PROBLEM and The Artist namely Michael Aasen
I did not found this song there. So I would request you to please have a look upon here -
https://www.youtube.com/music_policies
And clear the confusion :)
And thanks a lot for tweeting him, I too did that just now.
I hope it's now good but still would love to hear from your side..
Thanks a lot for your efforts
I can’t it find either.
As I said before: this is a music track that’s for sale on Amazon and iTunes. Why would the author offer it for free somewhere else?
If there is no clear proof that this is a royalty-free track, your video can’t be used as commercial ad.
That’s basic content creation law: never use the art of someone else, unless they allowed you to do so.
Again: we need a written copyright description for that song or a positive response from the producer. You’ve got still a couple of hours of time, good luck 🤞
:(
I'm regretting so bad !! Yup, you're right why would someone give it away for free.
I have texted Michael about the permission for the same though I think I would get any kinda reply :(
But see I looked it out upon ITunes and Amazon as well, but I didn't found on both of the sites.
The Page was Not Found on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&keywords=Michael+Aasen+-+Problem+-+Remix&tag=lastfm-20&index=music&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325
And the same applies for ITunes -
https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/advancedSearch?s=143467&affToken=www.last.fm&at=10l3Sh&app=itunes&artistTerm=Michael+Aasen&songTerm=Problem+-+Remix
As well as it is neither on Spotify !
The same music is nowhere but on YouTube and on YouTube it doesn't own a COPYRIGHT.
Please have a look ...
He’s monetizing it on Spotify:
Source: https://open.spotify.com/track/5lLgqZSplH5nAwN8KDBlCg
I'm lost !
Well I've texted him, if he doesn't replies...
Can Something else be done ??
I mean I have the project file of the video, so can I please change the music and this time I'll have each and every requirement fulfilled ...
Can that happen ? I'll be very happy if that can be done.. I can do it in just 30 mins..
Please give it a thought of yours..
I gave a lot of effort to get up at this stage and it means a lot to me..
Please have a thought..
I Mean I can change the sound track in the YouTube video...
Can I do that ? @surfermarly
You said you downloaded the song on a website for royalty-free music. So why don’t you just provide us with the link then?
A new video can’t be submitted now, it’s too late and all the community votes have already been cast.
The voting will finish in 8 hours, so you still have a lot of time to provide the necessary information. I’ll be back here in the evening.
I mean I won't make a new one. I can just replace the audio track on the current video only . The YouTube video I can do that in just a second.
Can I do that, I'll just change the audio nothing else on the current YouTube video..
The video will be unchanged just the audio will be changed and on the same video only..
Can I do That ? ( It'll Take just a min, I've selected a music already I just have to hit SAVE CHANGES )
I will ask the sponsors of this contest how they wish to proceed and then I’ll let you know.
Thanks a billion ! Hopin for the best !!
In the meantime please provide us with the link to the website you mentioned, that will be crucial.
I'm tryin hard to search it, though I'm unable to find it :(
I'll keep tryin ! But can't commit that I'll surely get it :( But For sure efforts are on the top level
P.S One thing I forgot to tell you that was...
Spotify is not available on my side, because of which I didn't found that out :(
good work so amazing
Thanks a lot brother, I'm glad u liked it :)

Using upvote bots is not fair to others though. To people who try to win in the right way..
The entry will most likely be disqualified due to copyright infringement.
That's a pity. I liked the video. It really shows off the strengths of the platform. If it's a copyright issue with the music, I guess we can't widely distribute it.
On the plus side, at least my video won't be last.
Hey @spectrumecons,
I'm very glad that you liked my video :)
But Mate, Trust me ... The song I've used in the video is from a website that offers only NO-COPYRIGHT musics. I picked it from a website, I heavily regret not mentioning the source of it. I'll give a try to hunt down the source but I can't make a commitment as I used a number of sites from where I downloaded 7 songs and this was one of them. But I can assure this video won't face any copyright. You can count on me !
Cheers!
Assuring means providing a source here, thank you. See my detailed reply above.
I hope this can be resolved. I have no official say as I'm not running the contest. I would like to see a fair result as well as all content that can be legitimately shared.
Posted using Partiko Android
Yes, in fact a commercial ad can’t contain any third party elements unless the author is holding the corresponding copyrights. That’s a basic rule of content creation and I mentioned it since day one.
That's fair enough.
Posted using Partiko Android
I tried to be fair all the time actually ... Some people will still find things to complain about here, but I guess that’s just because they want to find something :-)
Have a nice day!
Fairness is a perception thing. Not everybody sees things the same way. All we can do is try the best we can. If there are things people are not happy about they should be considered for future contests.
A key thing to remember is, you won't please everyone.
Posted using Partiko Android
That’s why I used the word tried :-)
Please give my comment a read.. I hope you'll understand my counterpart and give me a green signal for the entry :)
You can give yourself the green light by providing the required copyright information and proving that you’re allowed to use that song from Michael Aasen. Thank you.
Hello @chatwithkat,
I too believe that,It deprives others and don't let them have what they deserve but see I haven't used it from my side !
Trust ME I haven't asked anyone to do it as well ! Please think from my side.. If someone else buys votes from his/her side, What can I do ? I really don't know who have bought them for me.
I admit that I went to a number of people for their support but never asked to buy votes for me. I really can't figure out who can be that person..
Anyone can do that and to create a bad impression about someone on others, this can be done..
:)
Mystery solved
Woah ! It's very good to see you pickin up the real culprit, or what should I say him though :(
Can you please suggest me what should I do ??
Appreciate your efforts !
There’s been Steem transferred to that account only to manipulate the votes and boost your entry to the top!
You can tell your friend that the party is over and that this will disqualify the entry.
Hey @surfermarly ! I didn't sent any STEEM to anyone !!
I have also seen that @devilromit16 sent two votes to the comment valued 0.6$ and even wrote that He's my friend on his about.
But trust me I didn't do that ! Neither I sent him STEEM nor He's my friend
Please have a look into this matter and think over it. There's nothing that I should be blamed of and especially of the thing I didn't commit :(
@steemersayu907 - I hope the music is usable... Great and lively video! Loved it.
This entry will be disqualified @done due to copyright infringement and cheating (manipulating votes through bid bots). You may reconsider the vote ;-) And thanks for supporting the other entries!!! 😍
Pulled it. I will be watching for results and voting generously to the winning competitors!
Awesome! :-) I'll be publishing the post in about an hour when the voting procedure ends and when we know who our final winners are.
Hi @done, Yup there's an issue with the music.
But I hope it will be soon solved, I have asked @surfermarly that I would replace the music track with another one on the same video. Just wait8in for her Approval !!
Plus !! I'm very glad to receive such huge support from the community !!
But a bit sad as well as a guy namely @devilromit16 bought me some bid votes with approx value of 0.6 $ which is a bit controversial for me. But Trust Me I didn't do that.
And you can check the activities of @DRisers and get to know my true intentions. That's the reason I am fighting against these kinda allegations :(
Anyways I believe that the sun shines the brightest !!
hehe thanks a billion for your blessings :)
Your entry will be disqualified for the known reasons. And yes, sun will shine bright for all those who played fair and according to the rules here.
Chapter closed.
Thank You for the time you invested behind the reasons for disqualifying me and not providing me any further scope and especially for the things that my soul knows I haven't committed except the music mistake.
Sadly I've been a victim of deep controversy, ( Interestingly for a stranger ;) )
And Yes, Do remember there are even bigger stars than sun in the universe :)
I spent a whole day with you here trying to help you solving YOUR problem.
You are the only one who didn’t respect the rules of the contest. Be at least so professional to admit your mistake.
I will write a longer post about this pretty interesting experience and life lesson.
Yup, I admitted my mistake proudly and asked for some scope to correct it ( the Music one )
But I've been gettin some allegations which I should not be blamed of :)
I really appreciate your efforts, I too tried hard to contact that Song Author, but got silence.
I accept I should have had taken that link :( I regret that.
But The other reason for the disqualification is .. :(
Copyright infringement is a total no go in general. I made that pretty clear right from the start. This is not about a link that’s missed - it’s about using a piece of art that’s not yours. In the advertisement space that’s absolutely impossible. Do you know how expensive a take down notice can be? Do you want to pay for that then? I don’t.
Chapter closed. I don’t have time for this.
Yep, I can get that and totally regret not having the proper permit to use that sound track.
But still I can replace that sound track with another one, ( IF YOU ALLOW ME )
I promise you, I'll be very careful from now on. Maybe this was a very big lesson for this 16 year old kid. I have a lot to travel upon content creation, I literally love editing videos and make vlogs.
So can I be given a very last chance to change the music?? ( Pls, this means a lot to me )
Do consider it at least once :) As changing the audio would make sure that there won't be any take down notices ever.
As well as these allegations are hurting me very much :(

Hi @surfermarly, great to see this up and running!
However it seems there is no link connected to the images to take us to the videos.. plus on the Partiko app, upon clicking it, my entry says it's an invalid URL but other seems to work...
Can these be edited/fixed? Thanks!
I set up the whole voting on dpoll until I realized that the voting there is limited to 20 answers (but we have 36 entries). Then I moved the whole content to eSteem Surfer but apparently some links got lost. I fixed this manually now and all links to DTube should be working - that's at least what I can see on eSteem and steemit.com now. If partiko has problems to display the content correctly, then this may be an app specific issue.
I've been six hours with this now and need a break :-)) Happy weekend and good luck for your entry!
Haha I totally understand you must be frazzled! Thanks for fixing the links, it's all working beautifully now! Have a nice break, you deserve it! Thank you
Ehm.... I'd say this really feels like Friday eve now, haha!
Thank YOU for your great entry, i hope you'll get the support you deserve.
@surfermarly I want to watch them all but sitting here on my phone and Dtube takes so long to load.. so unless I have a YouTube link too, I just can't..I've seen a few though this week and they've been so fun.

Wow! What a great bunch of promos!! It's took me a while to decide and had to watch some more than once. Well done to everyone who put in an entry, that was a heck of a tough choice! In the end I had to go with the one that made me smile, left enough to the imagination and didn't confuse me with crypto-gobbledygook. Can't wait to find out who gets the prize...
Thank you @surfermarly for setting this up, what a pleasure to be a part of :)
You're more than welcome and thanks a lot for participating in the voting!
I think they're all winners already :-)
You're welcome and I can't agree more. I've been showing these to all my friends as I'm just blown away by the production value and effort put in to this competition.
Great contest with great results.
Thank you, and I agree: the entries are fantastic :)
Hi - so we can only vote once and the winner is selected by the # of votes (not the value of the votes), right?
Nope. Stake weighted voting as always and you can vote for as many as you want :)
We only vote for one, @surfermarly?
Posted using Partiko Android
You can vote for as many as you want. Voting is also stake weighted.
I want to vote for @dcooperation: Join, blog, earn, that's the best video ever!
Could I vote on a few videos? I watched all the videos.
Wish all the partiсipants all the best!
You can vote for as many entries as you like - just make sure that you upvote the corresponding comments (the one I submitted with declined payout), that's the only way you can make your voice count here.
Thanks for the support!
Thanks! I did it)
Excuse me ma'am. Would you mind moving the participants comments for voting purposes above the regular comments. I think some entries are getting buried. Thank you.
If someone delegates me 100K Steem, I’ll be happy to do some magic 😃
Yes. You can vote on a few videos. I also vote for 2.

LET THE WINNER VIDEO BE PART OF A STEEM MARKETING STRATEGY
This is a great initiative. Thank you @surfermarly for kicking it off. And it's really difficult to decide. Maybe this helps a little bit:
In developing a marketing strategy for the Steem ecosystem, Steemians have identified some top priorities:
Why not take this into account when voting for one of these videos? The video could then be integrated into a larger marketing campaign.
Thanks @surfermarly for hosting this awesome contest! I watched quite a lot of the videos and was inspired. So many amazing pieces here. Though most of them focus on the content creators (some featured Dapps too), it's great to see a few mentioning other stakeholders like investors.
Congratulations @surfermarly!

So many great ones, and what a great initiative @surfermarly!
Lots of very worthy entries; I just wish more people had approached this from a "pretend you're talking to someone who has NO IDEA what a blockchain, cryptocurrency, dApp or decentralized structure is" perspective... we really need to reach OUT to the world. But I guess that will come, in time!
Re-steemed for visibility!
Thanks a lot for your support!!!
Yeah you know we're on Steem for such a long time now and it's hard to imagine that there are still (many) people out there who have never been using this platform, hehe :-))
Another fantastic initiative Marly - very inspiring to see such quality productions. Just goes to show how important it is that a campaign like this is launched by someone with great standing in the community and with a nice prize pot! Well done to you and all those great entries.
Thank you, Chris!!! Hearing it from you means a lot :-))
I'm deeply impressed by the creativity and the efforts put into this contest, there's been a real wave of enthusiasm. So that's been my biggest takeaway so far. We can really move things here if we want!
Now I honestly don't think it really matters who's going to win the contest - we have a lot of amazing material to use for several marketing campaigns, so that's a huge asset to play with.
100% - marketing collateral of the highest quality- looking forward to community led campaigning!

Hello @surfermarly,
First of all I would heavily appreciate your awesome initiative for promoting STEEM to the world. It's really an enormous contest which is comin up with productive outputs.
But The Question I wanna ask you is that
I'm asking this because I have a ton of thoughts are are wandering upon me and are clashing with each other. So I thought I better ask the Organizer of the contest ( @surfermarly )
So The thing is,
You have said that the
That's perfectly fine :)
But This doesn't looks a perfect one :(
You said they will Upvote the 5 best Ads, But you didn't said @oracle-d would select the best ones :(
I would love to hear the reason behind it :) @oracle-d
Moving on...
MY TRUE OPINION -
I THINK THAT THE WINNERS HAVE BEEN ALREADY SELECTED AND THE PEOPLE HAVING ENORMOUS STAKE ARE MANIPULATING IT AND CHOOSING THE WINNERS WHO THEY WANT TO SEE WIN, AS WELL AS I THINK THAT THE ORGANIZERS AND SPONSORS SHOULD BE NEUTRAL IN SUCH CONTESTS, BUT IN THIS CASE IT DOESN'T SEEM SO
MY TRUE SUGGESTION -
IF YOU STILL WANT TO MAKE THIS VOTING FAIR, KINDLY WITHDRAW SUCH HIGH VOTES AND LET THE STEEM COMMUNITY HAVE A SAY WITH THEIR STAKES BECAUSE LITERALLY PEOPLE CAN'T COMPETE WITH SUCH HIGH STAKES LIKE @oracle-d HAS AND ORGANIZER SHOULD ALSO REMAIN NEUTRAL IF THIS IS TO BE MADE FAIR
All the fellow Participants Have A Read :)

Hey there! I couldn’t agree more! Remember the slogan “steem is for the community” and basically what is it now? It is far from any community any democracy or anything alike equal rights! Well, welcome to the world
We live in.. the biggest stakeholders take the run, its like with everything in our world... the richest takes the vote, the most influential political will always win, the democracy does not exist! Its always about the monopoly , and in the end.. the contest.. the vote has already been decided (as the biggest account could upvote and 1 vote would change the whole thing) (EDITED and added this explanation). What with the community, what with the the solidarity? Apparently what the community thinks does not matter...

Hi @travellit! First of all I'm happy to see your video raking first currently since I really liked it a lot :-)
Second, the voting procedure had been announced three weeks ago and so far nobody had been disagreeing with it. Why now?
Currently the algorithm on Steem consideres a stake weighted voting, the ecosystem is based on DPOS ever since. Of course such a system has PROs and CONs. An important factor is that it encourages people to invest in Steem and like that gain more influence within the community. From a business standpoint that's a pretty important point.
On the other hand I agree with you that for someone who doesn't have the financial possibilities it's tough to be heard.
Yet, so far no better algorithm has been proposed or at least not been considered worth its implementation. Ned has been proposing a one account / one vote mechanism for SMTs / Oracles, but we don't know if those will be implemented in the near future. Pennsif's State of Steem Forum on PAL tomorrow evening may bring some new information on the development process.
Again, it's sad that nobody had been coming up with all that right from the start and now two days before passing the finish line you're criticizing the whole process at if it was a whole scam.
All I can say is I've been doing my best to make this a fair contest - and to date I really thought people were appreciating that.
Have a good day and all the best for your entry ;-)
I’m just sharing my opinion with @true-opinion and understanding him/her. No one usually shares their opinion so great he has done it and he’s not scared to do it! :) It’s not a criticism towards anyone or anything, just wanted to share how we felt about it as well, also when we realised and understood what “stake weighted means”. I guess we haven’t been participating in that many contests to know it so well. And then people asked when we invited to vote “what’s the point of me to vote i have only 0,001 cents? I cant make a difference and my voice does not count”. Happened just recently and made us think that it goes a bit contrary to the slogan. You’ve explained it very well and so i can pass it further to the people who asked the question! :) And you’ve done a great job putting all of this together to promote steem! I guess this just opens a possibility to make any future contest better.

Hi travellit! I understand your point, but a world where everybody is equally provided with wealth will never exist - neither on Steem nor somewhere else.
Yet, what we do have on Steem - and I disagree with your point here - is equality of opportunity.
For a start, that’s the slogan for steemit.com and not Steem.
Having a voice doesn’t mean being provided by an infinite amount of tokens not doing anything at all. Having a voice primarily means being part of a community where one can reach out to others and team up. Having a voice means having access to a huge audience.
My vote is 7 Cents. Probably nobody would’ve cared about an upvote from me as reward for the winners of the contest. So I reached out to some larger stakeholders and asked them for their support. Now we have a massive prize pool because people decided to bundle forces.
Everybody can do that. It doesn’t matter how large your stake, literally everybody has a say here. As in life so on the blockchain: if you want something, then you need to go for it.
@starkerz said something very valuable in that context once:
The secret lies in voluntary action here.
Again, thanks for your participation and for bringing this up. I know it’s an explosive topic, but people need to learn that few things in life come for free - and that also applies for success on Steem.
Have a great day! :-)
i hear that. i used to love posting. but for what? couple cents that tomorrow will be 10ths of cents?
i may make nothing posting on facebook, but at least i get people that like the shit i post, and engage.
barely any of that on here. just a circle jerk imho.
Thanks for mention :)

the votes are based on per vote and not based on the stake .. just fyiedited ... thanks @surfermarly for clearing it up and i thought it was vote base.Hey @bitrocker2020, votes are stake weighted and it's been announced since the very beginning :-) Glad your video has received a lot of support!
Hi @true-opinion! Happy to meet you :-)
First of all thanks for your appreciation, I'm glad you like the contest.
Second, you're mixing up a couple of things here. Let me clarify that:
The voting on the entries is stake weighted just as it has been announced from the very beginning (3 weeks ago):
I haven't received any complaints in that context so far, so there is no reason to change the rules of the game now that we're almost passing the finish line. During three weeks everybody seemed to be cool with the procedure.
@Oracle-D is one of the generous sponsors who make this contest possible. They have promised to upvote the winners of the contest, and that's what they're going to do. Since the contest is running two weeks and payouts for posts end after 7 days according to the Steem algorithm, we've agreed on encouraging the winners to set up a celebration post after the award ceremony, and then the sponsors can allocate the promised votes accordingly.
Besides being a generous sponsor, @oracle-d is also a stakeholder of Steem, just like all of us. So there is no reason why they should be excluded from the voting. At no point in time there were any restrictions communicated, everybody is free to vote for the entries they like.
The only thing I'm worried about is that not many other larger stakeholders have placed more votes during the contest so far, but believe me I'm doing my best to encourage them all to participate.
I appreciate your suggestions, but you're asking me to exclude larger stakeholders from the voting just because they have a large stake - and that to me doesn't make sense at all.
This is a DPOS world. One account / one vote is something that may be considered with SMTs and Oracles in the future (see SMT whitepaper), but currently voting on Steem is stake weighted and so it has been announced for this contest three weeks ago.
Again, thanks for your feedback & have a nice day! :-)
@ashtv: Steem - The Movie Is my favorite
finally seen your post and like this.
I love the video of @travellit.
Oh my gosh!!! There is so much INCREDIBLE talent here on the platform!!! I can't get over it. Do a blindfolded vote and we'd be fine. However, because I don't want to make it too hard for you, I am sticking with my two favourites from the beginning...I CAN'T choose between the two, so I'll leave it in the capable hands of the universe lol.
My 2 favourites are @ashtv and @olegw's third entry with Morgan :)
@coruscate and @travellit are great second choices for me,
Man, you've all done a great job and you're ALL amazing.
Good luck to everyone!!!
Thanks a lot for your support @misslasvegas! So two of your four favorites won - i guess that's a pretty cool share :-))
Have a great weekend!
Hi @surfermarly, the trails can vote? I consider it an abusive advantage since no one can assure that all its members agree to vote for a certain video ...
I run a trail and I do not use it because it would be disgraceful. You should check because there are several voting in this contest ..
Congratulations for the initiative, incredible material has been obtained to promote Steem
Hi Daniel! Thanks for your feedback :-)
As mentioned before I’m unable to change the algorithm of Steem and exclude specific groups from the voting. This is an open platform and everybody is able to participate.
If we wanted to change the way people are able to cast votes on Steem, then we’d need to change the backend of Steem.
Now if you think it’s unfair that certain groups participate here, you can also reach out to them directly and ask them to remove their votes. Furthermore, we are provided with a downvote feature in order to balance votes - so you can also make use of that in case you considered that being the appropriate way.
I’m just the organizer here and no police woman :-)
Again thanks for stopping by and have a happy day!
Look, a few days ago @theycallmedan he made a contest through dpoll, perfect for these cases. It is our big dapp for voting in Steem, so it is not abused because each person votes for himself and does not steal his vote in a trail. That would be the perfect solution that gives us the blockchain to not be a police officer;)
https://steemit.com/steem/@theycallmedan/10k-delegation-poll
Did you read my post (the one you’re commenting here)? The whole voting was supposed to be set up on dpoll, but unfortunately the “big voting dapp” as you call it, is not ready for such an amount of entries. I mentioned all that above...
Thank you.
I like the video of @enmy

I want to vote, but I cannot. These ads are all so different and would attract a different type of demographic.
So, where are these being used? for whom are they meant to attract?
There was one that I personally didn't find appealing. I'm 41. But, it's a great design for a younger target market. It would basically fail hard for 40+ year olds. There's other ads that are excellent for my age group.
Oh, I'm so confused. lol
help?
I wish there was a Select All Steem vote 😞
BPC Locked On Mc Franko & The Franko
Blurt Stands — While Hive Stumbles Under the Weight of Its Own Shadows
Friends, creators, truth-tellers—
Let us not whisper this truth, but proclaim it with the clarity of dawn breaking over a weary land: Blurt.blog is not just another platform. It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be.
There is no downvote button on Blurt.
Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation.
Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage.
On Blurt, your words are your words.
They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.”
Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged—especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient.
Contrast this with what festers elsewhere.
On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self-anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low-quality content,” but at independent thought, at rising voices, at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control.
And when confronted, they shrug.
“Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands.
But let us be unequivocal:
When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name.
It is the velvet glove over the iron fist.
It is exclusion dressed as discernment.
It is power pretending to be principle.
Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean-handed and open-hearted.
No downvotes.
No hidden juries.
No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark.
Just you.
Your words.
And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity.
So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty:
If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt.
If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here.
If you believe the future of free expression must be free—not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us.
The world needs to know.
Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled.
Not because it is loud—but because it listens.
And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control,
Blurt offers something radical:
Silence for the bullies.
Space for the rest of us.
Keep speaking.
Keep sharing.
Keep building.
Freedom doesn’t advertise itself—
it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night.
And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts:
Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt-account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos.
Key Concerns:
Systemic Manipulation:
Community Exodus:
Governance Crisis:
Solutions Needed:
The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.
Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust.
#HiveTransparency #BilpcoinExposed #DecentralizePower"
A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates
Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co,
How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on-chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., #buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community-driven ethos.
Key Issues to Address:
A Path Forward:
The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division.
Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged.
#HiveTransparency #CommunityFirst #BilpcoinSupport"
@themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration.
Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins.
Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it.
It’s over.
The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see.
@themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP. Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain.
