Hi @acesontop
The idea behind SBI as that for 1 steem 2 shares are bought. So the one who sponsors get 1 SBI shares, just as the one who did get sponsored.
You got some SBIs shares from @cicbar. It will take some time before this is registered correctly. From then on you should see a higher upvote value from SBI, just like Cicbar!
You can find the number of share you have in the SBI behind the curtain sheet, which can be found here:

The member sheet itself can be found here:

If you do have any other question, please let me know!
Cheers,
Peter
Thank for elucidating my the mystery. I want to buy also some shares in the future, but I didn't know exactly how they work and the process of buying for someone else.
Buying shares is pretty easy: just transfer X steem to @steembasicincome and in the memo place the name of the Steemian you are willing to sponsor.
If it is there first share, they will get a memo notification!
Cheers,
Peter
