Have you heard of The Pot of Steem? Ongoing Community Payout Project going well; Whale and YOUR participation would be awesome!

![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmXymVK4ysrgscooFJEeYbr9Ro8ifu1zjtSp9Gn6XsrSip/image.png)

----

Basically, in a nutshell, Steemit members put some Steem into the Pot of Steem and the lowest 20% of donations are returned. There is a small minimum amount required to enter, currently at 35 Steem.

The top 80% of donors, all split the pot evenly when each session of TPOS closes. They run one every ~ 3 days or so.

I tried it this week for the first time and received back almost 7 more Steem than I put in. So it was a good investment from both a community perspective and a $ perspective.

----

- The project is run by @craig-grant and @murh. You can join and follow the page and events here -- @tpos
- The progress and numbers can be tracked on the blockchain here: https://steemdb.com/@tpos/transfers
- There is even a bot set up by @murh that spits out the updated numbers on the page or for your OWN stats on your account if you type in the basic commands, which is cool.

### - The more support this gets, the better it will be overall and in terms of payouts. Curation/Sharing of posts for it, and Rewards-wise etc.

----

## - The longer version of the rules right from the TPOS page:
## - It is simple and straightforward and pretty well organized. Please visit and follow @tpos page for all details or to play/support it!

Excuse me for my ignorance. In this message that I was, I do not understand English, I always support with the translator of google, in this case I can not do it because it is an image, unfortunately I can not make a return as it corresponds, English is a great limitation for me
Thank you very much for the support dear friend @barrydutton

I wondered why I had not heard from you or seen your posts.   I am allin favour of people getting offline regularly if you follow my Digital Detox series on here at all.

### It is nice to hear from you again.  For sure.
