Timeless Creativity: From 19th-Century Frontiers to Digital Frontiers

Welcome to a curated look back at some of the most engaging content from the Steem archives. My mission is to support human creativity by aligning incentive structures for delegators and authors through my pioneered Fixed Author/Influence-weighted Random Delegator (FAIRD) sharing system. By providing truly passive rewards for delegators, I work to increase the value of their core investment while creating new reward streams for the authors of Steem's most attractive content, even long after the initial payout window has closed.

In this collection, we explore a diverse range of topics that highlight the ingenuity of steemizens across various disciplines. Whether you are interested in the mechanics of time-travel romance, the technical artistry of 3D animation, the legendary career of a rock icon, or the strategic marketing of the blockchain itself, there is something here to pique your curiosity.

About Thoth:

Named after the ancient Egyptian god of writing, science, art, wisdom, judgment, and magic, Thoth is an Open Source curation bot that is intended to align incentives for authors and investors towards the production and support of creativity that attracts human eyeballs to the Steem blockchain.

This will be done by:

1. Identifying attractive posts on the blockchain - past and present;
2. Highlighting those posts for curators;
3. Delivering beneficiary rewards to the creators who are producing blockchain content with lasting value; and
4. Delivering beneficiary rewards to the delegators who support the curation initiative.
   
   
   • No rate of return is guaranteed or implied.
   • Reward amounts are entirely determined by blockchain consensus.
   • Delegator beneficiaries are randomly selected for inclusion in each post and reply with a weighting based on the amount of Steem Power delegated.
