New Feature: SmartPoints Beneficiaries
Greetings Steemians,
Thank you for the phenomenal response to #NewSmartSteem!
In this blog, we have an update about SmartPoints - part of Smartsteem's internal reward program.
SmartPoints Recap
Smartpoints can be earned through our earn app and used to make the most out of your Smartsteem experience.
The first use-case is for our streem app:
The more SmartPoints you own, the earlier your vote will be made relative to other voters, resulting in higher curation rewards.
Many of you asked us if there are other potential use-cases of SmartPoints. Apart from preferred upvoting, our goal is to provide more utilities for SmartPoints in the near future.
Right now, you can earn SmartPoints by going to https://smartsteem.com/earn and delegating Steempower.
If you'd like to know how, checkout the gif below.

SmartPoints Beneficiaries
This is the newest feature we developed for SmartPoints, which is quite similar to Steem Beneficiaries, where you can set specific accounts as benefactors of your post-rewards. Just with the difference, that SmartPoints will be distributed instead of post-rewards.
Let's say "Bob" delegated 1000 SP to @smartsteem and set "Kira" as 10% SmartPoints Beneficiary.
Now everyday in the regular scenario Bob is supposed to get 1 point daily. Since he has Kira as beneficiary, Bob will get 0.9 and Kira will get 0.1 Points daily.
Setting it up is quite easy: just head over to smartsteem.com/earn and click on the settings-button
We hope you'll find this feature helpful!
Your feedback is extremely valuable to us. Please use the feature and let us know your thoughts in the comment section.

Hello, a indian man by the name of Rupender Sharma IT specialist at TELUS in Abbotsford, BC Canada ripped me off.
I need your help if you can?
On june 4th and 10th - 175 ETH Stolen, 29,093 TUSD Stolen, 2402 LINK Stolen.
Do you know anyone that can trace the addresses the stolen tokens were sent to?
I will reward you $10k in Tokens or Fiat of choice for the full recovery.
You guys should have it so that you have to send in SmartPoints in order to claim a vote spot, the more sent the earlier the vote, one send per day and have a min and a max.. Post a post every 24 hours and that will be when the day starts, then it's first come first served Blind auction.. sending either to a specific account or @null ..
Dumb idea but I'm only trying to showcase the infancy of the idea, not so much meant to be taken at face value..
Anyways.. cool :)

Interesting concept. Highly appreciated food for thought!
Good
Thanks for the continual updates. However the problem I have with the smartpoints reward of getting an earlier vote is that it doesn't really make so much sense to me: the system always favors big SP holders who delegate to get smartpoints which means that even having a couple of thousand SP will put me at the end; and the other more problematic issue is that I can just use other services to vote on posts making this system essentially unattractive to even get on board. But perhaps I am understanding it wrong.
Let's say there is Bob, Andy, Petra, Karen, Ben and Louis:
Bob has 4000 SmartPoints, Andy has 50 SmartPoints, Petra has 1 SmartPoints, Karen 0, Ben 0, Louis 0.
Even if the difference between Bob and Andy is quite big (3950 Points), in case both are following the same curation trail, Andy will be the 2nd spot out of 6 and Petra with only 1 SmartPoints will be in 3rd spot.
That's already very fair towards small delegators, as there is no real value advantage between having 3950 more Points than the next person or 49 Points or even 1.
Nevertheless, your opinion is valued and it's not our objective to get people to abandon other services. We simply wanted to make something fun after completely revamping our platform. If you don't see too many advantages to use it, that's totally fine. No hard feelings!
okay thanks for clarifying! That actually makes more sense now
It's basically the same as any other auto voting service now. That's why it's useless. They keep talking about all this "positive feedback" they're getting, but it's bullshit. No one wanted another shitty auto voting/posting platform. Smartsteem used to be a way for us smaller shareholders to make a little bit of extra steem off of selling our votes so we don't reach 100% vote power. They completely fucked the whole thing and it's become a useless piece of shit. I can't even begin to fathom why they thought this dumbass move was a smart thing to do... but who knows. What they should've done was just adjusted the price for votes and maybe we would have earned a little less off of our votes, but we would have received larger curation now under new steem. They changed the service completely, to something that NO ONE AT ALL (Despite what the stupid fucks will claim on their posts...) asked for in the first place. Steemauto and Steemvoter and shit like that are sufficient and there was simply NO demand at all for another service like it, but these dipshits chose to take that path regardless. They've lost a majority of their userbase and it'll only dwindle further in time as people just stop using it because it's not any different than any other automated service. They not only hurt their bottom line, but they also cost their users a lot. We used to be able to make use of extra voting power and get a little bit with a fee taken out, for them hosting the service. Now? We have another useless site that contributes nothing original or unique to steem in any way. Fucking sad to see, tbh.

How do I undelegate from smartsteem?
There is no option on the site... something is wrong here.
I am searching for that option too. I no longer see any benefit delegating after these site changes.
This apparently has been going on for almost three months since and so far I can imagine they've been benefitting from the added supply...I want my hard-earned SP back!
hey @smartsteem that's not so smart (smh)
@beavishoek @cizzo OK I figured it out, by virtue of the animation in the post, you type "0" to remove the delegation amount. IDK its like too much to ask for anything, so its always a struggle...sigh, instead of receiving STEEM/SBD directly, another fool's gold receipt (points) for...clout?
Hey, I haven't been active on here for a while, do you maybe know how to undelegate now? Something seems to be broken there..
Is there any way to undelegate from steemit direclty?
As I remove the delegation, these people disappeared and there is no trace, at least my steem power was not much, this ends here, scam?
You guys only giving smart points in order of delegation of steem. Is this true ?
