RE: 2019 STEEM silver round now on SALE
You can avoid almost all downvotes by denying payouts, because then people don't feel the need to downvote because of making net positive roi by promotion.

If it was a for-profit promotion then yes, I would agree. But this is a community not-for-profit project that has a direct benefit to STEEM itself.
A community not for profit project can and will get organic upvotes. Maybe not as many as they ideally would want, but those are the tradeoffs of life, and the amount of upvotes they get or don't get is an indication of how much Steem stakeholders value the project's contributions (in practice, almost certainly such a project would be significantly valued, but not arbitrarily much).
The project is on the verge of getting shit-canned due to not being able to meet the minimum mintage required. If the Steem stakeholders don't value the projects contribution then I don't see why I should continue to advocate for it.
I honestly don't know if they do or don't value it. It's hard to measure that when organic voting is subverted with paid votes. Yet another reason not to do this.
@buggedout - 2 things have changed
1/ Steemit is fooked and active members have been dropping from 2017
2/ STEEM is worth 2% of it's all time high. Was easier before when we were earning $100 per post.
You know this already, i know you do. I feel your pain bro and i would hate to see this get canned. We only need to get through this year.
@smooth - I wish you could see one of these coins in real life. I've never meet someone that is not impressed by a nice shinny silver coin. I've never converted a friend into a stacker but they all like looking and playing with my stack.
STEEM ON BRO'S
