This is a part of reward that is being earned by both the curator and the author, the curator earn sp by curating a content that the author post which must be plagiarized free and interesting. The steem power reward is being claimed by the curator and author 7 days after the post is made.

It is true that powering up your steem to steem power is one of the best investment in steemit platform.
In order for individual to get steem power he or she must produce a quality and plagiarized free post and after the author post is being rewarded by the curator, you will have the reward and you can also earn it by powering up steem to steem power, you can also power up everything thing in the reward (100% power up)
And for the curator he or she is going to receive 50% of the steem power that is paid out after 7days
STEEM
This is a cryptocurrency in the steemit platform that is gotten in form of reward from competition(contest) and making quality content.

HOW IMPORTANT IS THE USE OF MEMO WHILES TRANSFERRING STEEM FROM STEEMITWALLET TO AN EXCHANGE WALLET
Answer
Memo is very essential in transferring steem because we make use of it to confirm the ownership and identification of wallet from different users. Before we can transfer steem to other exchange wallet the will request of username and memo and if you make any mistake in the memo you will automatically lose your token or send it to another person.so you have to be careful and confirm It again and again to avoid losses.
DO YOU ESSENTIALLY NEED A SIMILAR MEMO FOR TRANSFERRING STEEM FROM EXCHANGE WALLET TO YOUR STEEMIT WALLET
Answer
No
You don't use any memo to transfer steem from any exchange to your steemwallet, all that will be required from you will be the username and the steem amount.
