Lets get this out of the way first before we get into the winners of this week. 😉

Upcoming Changes to Vibes: 🚩🚩🚩

We wanted to announce several key updates to Vibes aimed at enhancing both our social media content creation efforts and overall reach. Recent trends have indicated a period of stagnation, and in order to justify the continued funding support from Hive, we must significantly increase our promotional activities. These changes are designed to re-energize our community and ensure the long-term success of Vibes.

Please review the following updates carefully, as they will be strictly enforced moving forward:

Beneficiary Requirement

All contest entries must allocate a 5% beneficiary share to the Vibes account (@hive-140169) to be eligible for curation.
This has been part of our rules since the inception of Vibes and is crucial in supporting the ongoing efforts of the team. The only exception to this rule will be for new accounts, which will have a grace period before compliance is strictly required.

Its very easy to do. Some frontends like Peakd will do it automatically but if not, when making a post you just need to click "ADVANCED" and click "set beneficiary".

Upvote Cap and Promotional Video Requirement

Moving forward, the upvote cap from our curators will be set at a maximum of $10 USD per post. To unlock higher votes, participants will be required to create and post one promotional video related to Hive, Vibes, or both, each month. This video should be included in their weekly entry.

The best video each month will be selected by the Vibes team and awarded $100 HBD💰, with the primary selection criterion being the number of views on social media. (Instagram, TikTok, Twitter)
Please note, new users and certain community members who have consistently promoted Vibes on Twitter Spaces and achieved significant social media engagement will not be subject to this requirement.

Enhanced Social Media Presence

We are pleased to announce the addition of a dedicated social media manager to the Vibes team. We will be ramping up our efforts, particularly on Instagram, while maintaining our current momentum on Twitter. Our Instagram strategy will include featuring highlights from the top Vibes entries, with reels showcasing a few seconds of standout content from both previous and future weeks.

Prize Pool Adjustment

To accommodate the costs associated with hiring a social media manager and the new promotional video reward, the first prize will be adjusted from 500 HBD to 400 HBD. (Only first prize is changing) Once we reach over 500 weekly entries, we will revisit and increase the prize pool accordingly.

We believe these changes will help drive greater visibility and engagement for Vibes, ensuring its continued growth and success.

Potential move from Ecency to our own designated website.

Right now we are working with the Breakaway community team to figure out onboarding to the designated Vibes website. If we manage to deal with the kinks, getting people into Hive will be much easier. So look out for that.

Here we are, at the end of the 20th week of Vibes. 😎

Each of the musicians deserve to win the main award. Unfortunately only 6 had to be chosen in the end.

...but, as we like to remind folks.

With Vibes everyone is a Winner!

Our hope is to bring you all many more weeks of this as we intend to make Vibes the biggest web3 music competition on the internet!

This week the community was able to choose the winners alongside the judges. 1/3 of the vote came from the community itself.
