Let's see points by points the benefits of building SP. - As we have discussed steem power is an influence token so, more the SP means more the influence power. - The more SP we have means more voting power. - More SP means we can distribute more tokens from the reward pool. - More control over curation rewards. - TRX will be awarded as the amount of SP(same amount), because of the pivotal curation rewards. - More SP means more attraction so reward system will prefer you more. - More the SP means more influence in construction of the blockchain blog system. ![—Pngtree—dividing line_5613302.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7usNEeyx6WRXKiKQyfY1boVcCJDuM57prFYjd1YC8Hj/%E2%80%94Pngtree%E2%80%94dividing%20line_5613302.png) #### QUESTION 4: *How do you explain self-upvote as a good or bad social behavior & why?* #### ANSWER 4: Self voting is the act of content creator voting their own content. Self voting is a bad behavior and i think this feature should be removed from the platform because it is not a good social behavior, it's not good to judge your own work. If our content is bad and deserve a downvote, so instead of a downvote we are self voting it with a upvote because of that trending page got manipulated and somehow our content can hide others good quality content, Self-vote also means we are distributing tokens from reward pool to us which is not good. ![—Pngtree—dividing line_5613302.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7usNEeyx6WRXKiKQyfY1boVcCJDuM57prFYjd1YC8Hj/%E2%80%94Pngtree%E2%80%94dividing%20line_5613302.png) #### QUESTION 5: *Explore Coinmarketcap.com to indicate rank, STEEM price, and coinmarketcap of STEEM(screenshot required)?* #### ANSWER 5: ![Screenshot (110).png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZYnhgoKuC6VPAYP9zj7C886Uspip4HWSK3v56nZPWTBj/Screenshot%20(110).png) **^{[Source](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem/)}** Steem Price: $0.6043 Rank: #179 Market Cap: $233,918,338 Volume: $ 70,207,530 ![—Pngtree—dividing line_5613302.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7usNEeyx6WRXKiKQyfY1boVcCJDuM57prFYjd1YC8Hj/%E2%80%94Pngtree%E2%80%94dividing%20line_5613302.png) #### QUESTION 6: *What are the different tokens do you earn by socializing in Steem Blockchain?* #### ANSWER 6: ![Screenshot (111).png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeN1bZtqDfhXFZ4h1pBQ36iGixWFQdcmudvMFTetEMd6k/Screenshot%20(111).png) Different Tokens That we earn over Steem Blockchain are : - Steem. - Steem Power(SP). - Steem Dollars(SBD). - TRX. ![—Pngtree—dividing line_5613302.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7usNEeyx6WRXKiKQyfY1boVcCJDuM57prFYjd1YC8Hj/%E2%80%94Pngtree%E2%80%94dividing%20line_5613302.png) ### Conclusion I researched and learned basics of voting, posting, curations and I came to a conclusion that steem blockchain is best platform as it is Decentralized and also reward their authors for quality of the content, which is free from plagiarism, I came to know why building SP is important, discovered the coinmarketcap website and did analysis on the STEEM token, later on we discussed what different types of tokens we can earn over steemit platform. ![—Pngtree—dividing line_5613302.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7usNEeyx6WRXKiKQyfY1boVcCJDuM57prFYjd1YC8Hj/%E2%80%94Pngtree%E2%80%94dividing%20line_5613302.png) ### Thank You
