![minnows unite.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYUwpgpm1tZ6JJCQUEyx749Pse7gpMKcCd26jzHX2KXRT/minnows%20unite.png) ___ # Good day and greetings to all! ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # The #MinnowsUnite Project has been undergoing massive renewals in order to maintain the capability to continue helping minnows grow. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) Over the past few months, we here at the #MinnowsUnite Project have been working diligently at figuring out how we as a team can best serve the community and the pools of minnows which grow exponentially every day. However, this task has not been a simple one, nor nearly as easy as we first thought it might be. We have faced many hurdles in accomplishing our goal, each of which we have slowly been overcoming. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # Recently we have made a few updates that have given our project vastly more stability. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) One of the major issues we have faced while conducting this project has been a problem with our bots' functionality. Our bots would face a failure while conducting their tasks, and would shut down. Previously, this error would require a manual restart of the bots by our dev. Currently, however, if either bot reaches a failure at any point in time, they have been coded so as to conduct an auto-restart and continue their tasks. This allows our bots to recover when they stop voting so that our subscribers may continue receiving votes. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # At this current moment, we have set our bots to vote at 10% voting weight. ## This allows our bots to be able to recover and maintain the voting power while maximizing the rewards for all. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # The #MinnowsUnite Project has now changed its registration fee to 0 SBD. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # That's right, you read correctly, and that is not a typing error. We have decided to make this change in order to allow minnows to keep their hard earned rewards, and instead have developed a different way of supporting the monetary needs of our project. ### With every new article that is posted, @minnowpond will respond with a comment stating that the user is supported by the #MinnowsUnite Project, and that the comments are how we as a project grow. When you and others upvote these comments, the rewards go directly to being able to sustain our rented SP and continue to grow our capacity to help others. When our account has higher SP, each of our votes develops higher rewards for the minnows subscribed. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # When we grow, *You* grow! ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) ## That about sums it all up for now. Be sure to stay in tune and follow us in order to catch all of the updates as they occur. We here at the #MinnowsUnite Project would like to thank all of the new and old members for their continued support and patience as we bring more stability and power to our project. ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # Steem on! ![chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd8Xc83KFGkAkXUBV6CwdARgd6UvxbyJF1LY4YP4n3dPp/chrome_2017-08-17_13-22-08.png) # Join us in our Discord Chat to register! https://discord.gg/PdWxgus
