## INTRODUCTION Hello steemian and compliment of the season, I am feel with joy to explore the topic which is going to educate me about steem and tron and will also help me in acquiring more knowledge. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## TASK QUESTION >What is PoB? What does curation mean to you in steem blockchain? What are the benefits of building steempower? How do you explain self-upvote as a good or bad social behaviour and why? Explore coinmarketcap.com to indicate the rank, steem price, and coinmarketcap of steem (screenshots required)? What are the different tokens you can earn by socializing on steem blockchain? How will you use your TRX earned in steem blockchain to optimize earning in tron ecosystem? https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## What is PoB? POB simply means the proof of the brian, to me I normally refer to it has brain work, when it comes to steemit the proof of the brian has to do with an individual that is on the steemit platform to be able to sit down and be creative when he or she is writing out anything to be posted in the platform and expect curation. It has to do with writing outstanding and a quality post and this post according to the achievement 3 which speak about plagiarism, the creative post that the individual makes should not in anywhere contain any plagiarism, if found the individual will be penalized. ![Screenshot_20211224-082644.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNiK3vr8a6mQyKsug1Pyr24HqqJNFWHsJGHzDT63AK3BA/Screenshot_20211224-082644.jpg) [Source](https://steemit.com/hive-108451/@steemcurator04/r4d8vv) Once an individual can produce a creative post that is attractive and outstanding the individual stand a very good chance of the post to be upvoted which the individual will get sbd, steem power and tron. An individual can also earn steem which is another reward from steemit and this is always gotten when the individual wins a contest, or is been given to the individual by friends or love one. If a post is found to be plagiarized same way it is upvoted the post can also be down voted which will spoil the individual reputation. After a post is upvoted after 7 days the reward can be claimed it is both the author of the post and curator that received rewards, when the individual get sbd, steem power and tron the curator only has the steem power. When the individual got the rewards the individual can also decide to power up his or her steem after converting it from sbd and this is also and added advantage because people with enough steem power always stand a chance of more benefits such has participating the cryptoacademy which helps in educating individual more about cryptocurrency and also rewarding them when the score above 4.9.Here plagiarism is not tolerated. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## What does curation mean to you in steem blockchain? Curation to me means when an individual produce a quality post that us very creative and does not contain any plagiarism when the post is been read and it passes the plagiarism test and is found to be outstanding the curator will upvote it which is a form of throwing their support to the individual to keep producing that type of post, some curator do go ad far as commenting that the love the post and that the individual should do more and by this is a very big way of encouraging someone to do more. It is also important to note that not all post are upvoted the same some it depends on the curator power and some it depend in how attractive the post is. When I say it depends on the curator you can not compare an upvote from steemcurator01 with an upvote from steemcurator02 and has I earlier said when the curator curate your post it will take you 7 days from the time of posting to claim your reward and also note that it is both parties that benefit from it because the curator also received steem power. Curation is really a wonderful thing, we also have curation trial which many people join and the administrator of the account will be using it to support the community members, I really love it when my vote is curated because it make me encourage and motivate me to keep producing interesting post. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## What are the benefits of building steempower? When we talk about steem power, it has to do with the power in which an individual in steemit platform has to be able to do certain things. It is also important to note that an individual that has so much steem power is influential in the steemit platform. We can remember when joining the platform newly we are always rewarded with 15sp which we make use of it to post and comments in the platform but has we keep posting and receiving rewards it increases. Steem power is an asset that is non liquid and at the same time is being locked up and using it to curate post. We have so many benefits to build our steem power, let me start with the current situation when you have enough steem power you can participate in cryptoacademy task and whenever your home work or task is mark there is a free one mark that is always added to keep you motivated there is even what we know has club5050 which people is really enjoying because there are building their steem power. Another benefit is that people with enough steem power are always influential and people love mentioning their name when the make post atleast so that the will be rewarded and the also have so many followers because people love associating with successful people. People that build steem power have the ability to create a community and will also have many subscribers because they will always support the subscriber with it. Individual with enough steem power can also be able to delegate his or her steem and at the same time be receiving reward like steem weekly from the community that the power is being delegated to. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## How do you explain self-upvote as a good or bad social behaviour and why? Let me start by explaining individually,self has to do with an individual, up-vote has to do with when a creative post is being rewarded. So self upvote now has to do with an individual that has enough steem power using it to upvote only his post and this behavior is very bad because you are not using the steem power that you build to reward others, though people feel bad when their content is not rewarded but is not enough reason to use your steem power in upvoting yourself. * Reasons Lets say you are the community administrator and you use the steem power in upvoting only yourself you will not be motivating your community members to produce quality content because the will be discouraged that there is no need to since the are not being supported by their community. It is bad even the country representative that received delegate steem power of 5000sp is not advise to use it in upvoting their personal post, so self upvoting is bad. https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSjDPtfFMq8zTUucyzT3ic8xB9Q7VSbBBw29B8E8Mdp8L/C3TZR1g81UNaPs7vzNXHueW5ZM76DSHWEY7onmfLxcK2iP5LgxKBuik4Hf6eXgkiZ1rLeouXUaG1qcbJsoravkU3RHumz4V1PXCihJNpEjmUejFueUBWLwx.png ## Explore coinmarketcap.com to indicate the rank, steem price, and coinmarketcap of steem (screenshots required)?
