GK's Guide on EVERYTHING you need to know about Whaleshares - Contest Inside!

What Are Whaleshares?

^{Paraphrased from @jphenderson:}

"Whaleshares" are a token-based tool that accurately and professionally applies whale voting power to a users posts.

This allows people to build their steempower and payouts while giving whales incentive to hold their steempower instead of powering down – This should also help the price of steem remain consistent.

This means that you can buy or win Whaleshares, and use them for some major post promotion!

Alternatively if you're fiscally responsible, altruistic or a great friend you could give them to me. ^{I mean save them... >.>}
