Hey #photochaincommunity! Big thanks to everyone who participated in the first Photochain Photography Contest and took the time to go out and take some amazing snaps, especially those who put in extra effort to find the perfect place according to the weekly theme. Those I enjoyed the most as they showed me your unique perspective and creative power. Some of you didn't add a watermark to your images or forgot to add a tag and while no one will be disqualified for it this week, from now on entries that don't follow the rules fully won't be taken in consideration. So please read carefully how to enter and rules before posting an entry.

If you see your name amongst the winners or honorable mentions I hope you have a ERC20 compatible wallet, if not set it up (watch the tutorial under how to enter) and contact me on discord with your wallet address.

What's Photochain?

In short, it's a marketplace for stock photography that will, by using the power of blockchain technology allow photographers to earn 95% of the revenue generated by their work while still offering a cheaper price for the buyers. Its current counterparts take up to 75% of the profits and tackle its users with entry barriers and inequality. Like many others in the blockchain space, Photochain aims to change that by shifting the power from the greedy corporations and giving it back to the driving force behind their success; their users. Sounds too good to be true? It's not. That's the beauty of cutting down costs through decentralization and a community based governance.

Find out more about the DApp in the article I wrote about it but if you really want to go in detail I suggest you read the whitepaper.

Photochain Photography Contest

Is on a talent hunt, searching for Steemit's best photographers while giving everyone a chance to earn. You don't need to be a professional photographer but some level of quality must be visible in your work as each and every contribution will be rewarded with Photochain's tokens: Photons (1PHT = 0.12 USD). For that we have a community reward bot in development that should be up and running soon. The bot will comment on every post in the #photochaincommunity tag and after manual screening of the posts, searching for possible abusers, it will distribute Photons to our community members Ethereum wallets.

Each week you will have a theme that should be present in your pictures. This is optional as I know that some of you might not have the resources/inspiration/opportunity to follow the given theme for the week. Why would I follow it then? Because first place is reserved for entries that follow the weekly theme. Second, third and honorable mentions don't need to go along the theme to win but it's an advantage if they do.
