STEEM ATLAS [07 Jun '25] : The Atlas Challenge #12 - The Winners : 650 STEEM Prize Pool

The Atlas Challenge has its 12th set of winners - again with the increased prize pool.

The top 20 positions on the Leaderboard at 12noon UTC today are sharing a prize pool of 650 STEEM.

Venezuela and Indonesia swapped the top two slots this week with @oswaldocuarta taking first position and @candra8692 dropping down to #2. These two countries continued their dominance of the Leaderboard with Venezuela taking six Top 20 slots and Indonesia taking nine.

Making up the rest of the Top 20 were representatives from Bangladesh (x2), Italy, Spain and the Philippines.

The third Delegators Draw took place last Saturday again with prizes of 3 x 25 STEEM. The next Draw will be later today, and anyone delegating will receive one entry in the draw for every 1000 SP. There is still time to get your delegation in to be entered in this week's draw.

The @steem-atlas curation account now stands at 221K SP. As soon as we reach 225,000 SP the prizes for the Delegators Draw will be increased to 4 x 25 STEEM.

The Leaderboad rankings are not just calculated on the number of posts.

There is a complex algorithm that uses a whole set of different factors to work out the rankings automatically and dynamically. (Being a Steem Ambassador is NOT one of the factors.)

To maximise your chances of moving up the Leaderboard you should read this new upgraded Atlas Tips post carefully...

We are delighted at how many people are rising to the challenge of the Atlas Challenge.

The next prize event will be on Saturday 14 June when 650 STEEM will again be distributed among the Top 20 on the Leaderboard.

In the meantime keep posting more, and keep posting smarter.

The more you post, the more chance you will have of working out how the algorithm works 😀

Read the posts, read the lines, and read in between.

The truth is out there...

Thank you
