Some promises have been made of distributing rewards here and there, so here's a post before July 4th to record them. Here's proof of a promise I made in my post here: Grassroots advertising for Steemit, to spend 100% of SD I get from that post on continuing the advertisements. I've kept the ads going almost continuously since then (missed a few days late June), out of pocket before the payout. I'll keep the ads going until whatever equivalent value SD I get on the 4th from the post are exhausted. Here's a combined screenshot of the funds I've spent so far (truncated for extraneous transactions and privacy reasons):
Others have made promises too.
@tuck-fheman very generously promised an equal share of all of the liquid proceeds from his How-To Mine Steem in Windows guide to 10 people who helped him including myself.
@sandra has promised 50% of SD rewards to first solvers in her awesome Steem Cryptocurrency Crossword series. I've been the first to solve 3 times :D
@steemrollin promised 75% of his Contest: Steemit Original Banner Ads post rewards between me and @amartinezque
Those are the promises affecting me, which I actually wrote down in a text file when I realized I might not remember them all. Hell I could've forgotten one for all I know. If you want to record a promise someone's made to you on a Steem payout leave a comment!
It would have been cool if that How-To Mine Steem in Windows post had stayed at $8K! :)
No complaints, but it's been cut by ~55% due to dilution since then so the payout for everyone will be much smaller than originally planned. Perhaps some friendly whales ( @ned ) would like to help out pre-7/4? ;)
I've promised to award the winner (@pharesim) of my Reducing friction for critical mass adoption of steemit adoption accelerator incentive the liquid SD I get from the post on 4rth July to help further boost their project efforts. That was on top of the 5000 STEEM Ii donated at the time.
promises are made to be kept.
