Introduction
In all the time that I have been here, I can't think of a better opportunity for brand new users to make money on the steem blockchain than utopian.io - For those who don't know, utopian rewards open-source contributions with steem!
I will, in this post, explain how one can make hay with this platform both from the content creation and curation side.
How Utopian.io is Fundamentally Different from Steemit.com
One thing that is really different from steemit.com is that before a post is allowed to be displayed on utopian.io, it has to be accepted by curators. Once it has been accepted, the utopian-bot who is now powered by 3 Million Steem will upvote contributions depending on it's quality. (Maximum upvote is worth up to $300)
Since this project is still in it's infancy, the competition is very low and the rewards can be huge! But there is no free lunch, you have to produce really good content that will make it past the platform curators.

Curators: Front-Running the Curators for Extra Curations Rewards!
So here is the strategy:
- Lurk the utopian.io tag https://steemit.com/created/utopian-io
- Find really good contributions that haven't been voted yet by the utopian bot
- Upvote it
- Make $$$
Now, if you are a beginner and don't have much Steem Power, it may not be worth your time to play the curation game BUT if that's the case, you can make $$$ by creating high value contribution to the platform that will be upvoted by both people who want to front run the utopian bot AND the utopian bot itself 😛
Conclusion
I believe that through the utopian platform, people who make high value contributions will get rewarded justly.
On Steemit.com just as it is on Youtube, the content with the most views are not necessarily the "best" (think baby laughs and cat videos). A large following and a track record of consistency is also a factor on steemit.com...which is not necessarily the case on utopian.io
Have Fun!
Thanks for the tip!
I like the idea that content over viewership is rewarded, but unless you are a coder or some sort of developer/designer I don't see the common folk being able to take much advantage of utopian.io. please correct me if I am wrong as I have just skimmed through a bit of the information on utopian.io
Okay cheers. Seems some technical ability is still necessary but most can do analysis. Gonna look deeper into it. If you are receiving 3 million delegated sp then it is likely something that is worthwhile
bug reports are also very easy.
@jasonshick thanks or this info... I am common folk..lol great way to put it.. resteemed this post for those that can make use of it.
Looking into this platform. I hope it works out. Sounds like a great strategy.
Completely agree with you, a good result from supervision is possible only with a large number of Steem Power , otherwise it's just a waste of time. But unfortunately the overwhelming majority of newbies just earn Steem Power in large numbers is no longer possible, only if you buy :( Thank you @cryptoctopus
Interessing post i will check out this platform right now thank you so much
And this is sooo true, thanks so much foe this piece
Wow! This a good news @cryptoctopus. I am glad on this improvements. Thanks for sharing
How does it work regarding photography?
I am making this question because here in Steemit the photographers tend not to be rewarded that much, like if going out, shooting and editing has no value or something... Just curious...
Unless you can make a link between open-source contributions for software and photography, I don't see how that would help you much. You would be better off trying something like steepshot.
My bad, I thought it was a generalist content platform. Sorry for that.
Cool ! Will check it out , thanks for the info @cryptoctopus !
That's a good hack. Thanks a lot @cryptoctopus. The delegation are raining down at utopian. Just a few hours ago it was 1m+ SP, now it's 3m SP
Edit: After reading the rules, I found out this question was irrelevant.
on my check out list.. thanks for writing this...I saw something posted about it but this helps me know it is worth checking out. ❤️
interesting post ...... Thanks for share this
Nice suggestion..That s we encourage us to develop in github..Really good contribution.
Great find! I just downloaded discord and I'm checking out the site now, looks good! Thanks
I'm looking to create truther content in fields like; flat earth, media and hollywood exposure, poisons in food and water, reincarnation, religions are fake, government lies and scams, fiat scams, public indoctrination camps, veganism, and probably a bunch others. Do you think this would be good stuff for your site?
Thanks for this information! Content over only viewer following has a lasting effect for the platform.
Congratulations @cryptoctopus, this post is the fifth most rewarded post (based on pending payouts) in the last 12 hours written by a Superhero or Legend account holder (accounts hold greater than 100 Mega Vests). The total number of posts by Superhero and Legend account holders during this period was 27 and the total pending payments to posts in these categories was $800.35. To see the full list of highest paid posts across all accounts categories, click here.
If you do not wish to receive these messages in future, please reply stop to this comment.
That's a pretty cool thing to do !!
Another way to earn if you have big steem power. Is there anything worth doing when you are around 500steem power?
Hi @cryptoctopus. I started doing translations in utopian-io, but there is a "paradox", I am not getting big rewards, because utopian-io bot rewards big upvotes.... AND because I am not getting big rewards, I don't get the attention of curators.
Reviewing the content of other people, I think my content is good enough to get a +50$ reward of the bot, but need to first have the votes. I have seen some posts (in translations) with fewer content compared to mine, with +60$ reward, that posts are upvoted by you by the way.
To be honest is a little frustrating to get 5$ and see all that 60$ rewards in the translation section, not really sure what I can do apart of doing the best I can with the content.
If you want to see my profile: https://utopian.io/@nehomar
(I still have pending translations posts)
(one of my rewards was just manually fixed)
You help me with your vote, thanks!

begging for upvotes gets you a downvote on my posts.
