The contest

We will be neutral regarding your choice of witnesses to vote. We do not canvass for votes for particular witness. This contest is for you select witnesses and cast your votes for them.

We will only show you how to vote and those you must not vote because they are currently inactive

How to vote for witnesses

  • Before you go voting, click this: https://steemian.info/witnesses. Take note of all the witnesses. Those in red colour have been struckthrough. This shows that they are inactive for now. So they should not be among witnesses you will choose. This is only valid for now.

  • Click this link in the page that opens, you will see a list of top 50 witnesses. If your choice witnesses are among the 50, click on the corresponding upvote icon to vote. If they are not among the top 50, scroll down and you will see a box similar to the below image. Type in the name of your choice witness and vote.

Steem-blockchain requires a set of people to create blocks and uses a consensus mechanism called DPOS. The community elects 'witnesses' to act as the network's block producers and governance body. There're 20full-time witnesses, producing a block every 63-second round. A 21st-position is shared by the backup witnesses, who are scheduled proportionally to the amount of stake-weighted community approval they have.

ROLES WITNESSES PLAY IN THE STEEM BLOCK CHAIN

*It is no longer news, that witnesses maintain the activities that take place within and outside the steem block chain by putting in blocks, time stamping transactions (such as posts, transfers, exchanges, votes, etc) and validating them with signatures.
This however, has ignited the true and worthy saying by an erudite steemian and leader @eurogee ;

NO WITNESSES = NO STEEM.

Steem witnesses are those who are in charge of steem block chain, they make decision on how to move steem to the next level. They are the engine of steem. They make sure that steem is homogeneous in nature and are well in circulation among its users alike. They are the pioneer and first face of steemit steem block chain.
