Set Proxy: eoswatchdogs
If you feel we've left anyone out, we need to hear from you. This is a community initiative and we need as much of the community possible voting for honest block producers. Come here (http://t.me/eoswatchdogs) and let us know what you think about some of the block producers we've chosen and some that we haven't chosen yet need you to speak for them! Come and add to our recommended BP list. We're hoping to have a solid list of 50 hard working, somewhat transparent and trusted BP's to recommend to the community.
EOS WATCHDOGS is a community initiative created to keep a watchful eye out for the EOS community. It is comprised of EOS community members that share and shine a light on both positive and negative news about block producers so average Joe's can make better voting decisions. We highlight the most positive deeds, tools, support, news, and statements of the block producers that are doing a fantastic job, and we will shine a direct light on any bad behaving block producers to deter that behavior running our network.
Please check out the great work taking place to maintain BP compliance
https://steemit.com/eos/@controllinghand/who-are-your-top-21-eos-bp-really
Most of the BP's themselves are working very hard and it's difficult to spot any bad acting BP's when they're all so generously engaging in conversations all over the world and providing tools or education to those who need it most. Once in a while though there will be BP's that don't play by the rules. That's why we're here to make sure they don't get a foothold in any veto power and keep them out of the top 21.
The top 21 Block Producers MUST remain honest and hard working for a healthier network. We must stand together and remain watchful, always on the lookout for threats to our network. This is our network and we'll run it for the community, not the guy with the most money. Anybody can join and be a watchdog. Remember to get out there and vote or choose a proxy to vote responsibly for you.

We are all voluntarily contributing to this great work. Many of us spend many hours each and every day researching BP's and communicating directly with BP's to gather the data necessary to make these decisions. Thank you to all the eoswatchdogs out there. We couldn't do it without your help. Keep watching my friends!
Get out there and talk about EOS. Show your friends and family your human readable named account and tell them how transactions are free and virtually instant on EOS. Thanks for taking the time to read this. If you like it, follow along for more updates as we grow the list.
Thank you for the info. I recognize quite a few of the BPs on the list.
You're most welcome.
Resteemed
Thanks guys, this list does need more exposure and more community input. Thanks for all the hard work you guys are doing for EOS!
@datjunky This is an awesome group! And thanks for taking a leadership role. The EOS community is strong and alive and if we keep the communication lines open the sky is the limit. Keep being a skeptical truth seeker.
You know it buddy, we have a lot of work ahead of us if we're going to help maintain the health of our network. Glad you are on our side to aid in the efforts.
One Team!
"somewhat transparent"?
Yeah, the criteria for which is still being discussed, so basically it's a matter of network security. 99% of their information will be public, some details will be withheld for security purposes. I should have been more clear in the article but as you can see it's kind of a can worms.
Greymass have come up with a great idea to store the BP.json file on the EOS chain, that will help with information gathering for sure.
Yeah greymass team is up to the task. They're churning out quality tools that we need.
How greymass has not made top 21 is beyond me! They literally provided the tools needed for the unlock of the chain and have given us a product. It's baffling, honestly.
Yeah, I am as surprised as you are. I have confidence that once block.one votes and more members start staking and voting, then they will be near the top of the heap.
Thanks for including us! Please reach out if you need more information on the different initiatives @EOSCostaRica is undertaking.
Well deserved! Thanks for the offer, and I'm sure we'll be in touch.

If i set you as proxy, do i have to renew that every x weeks/months or is that valid until removed?
Super initiative, it takes a lot of time to analyse/research BP's and i peeked in your telegram to notice you are doing the perfect job, that will make the life of the more passive investors easier, thanks!
The voting power on EOS decay's over time. I believe it's 1%/week so you should reset your proxy choice every so often to maintain the integrity of your vote strength. There will be tools developed to auto vote soon enough but for now, it's going to have to do. Thank you very much for the compliment! It's a full time job being a watchdog but it's really rewarding for me because I know it's helping the health of our great eos network.
Thank you for putting it up together!
You are very welcome. I plan on staying on top of things and making sure to keep the network happy and healthy for as long as I can. Tha Ks for your support.
