Starting September 1st I will delegate 1000 Steem Power for a month to an innovative content project on the Steemit blockchain. 

# Rules For Submission

* deadline is August 31st, noon EET
* project must start September 1st and it ends September 30th
* project description must be no longer than 300-500 words
* project description must be made _in your own feed_ as a post which will be tagged #empower1ksp (Emower with 1000 Steem Power). After you post it, paste the link to your proposal in the comments
* the project must take into account both _content_ and _engagement_, in other words, it must generate at least 1 post per day and at least 5 comments per day
* all posts in the project will be tagged with #empower1ksp
* any profits generated by the project will be retained by the project owner (if he / she wants to distribute a part of the profits as an incentive, it's ok)
* no violence, porn, gambling (no betting), politics
* you get 1000 Steem Power which is _delegated_ to you, it's not permanent, at the end of the 30 days, it will be returned to me
* if I will consider there is no significant project among the submissions, I will postpone the funding for October

If this first trial goes well, I may extend the funding on a regular basis.

# Call For Collusion :)

If there are any other whales / dolphins who wish to delegate at least 1000SP for this project, under the same conditions as above, please let me know in the comments.

Let the games of empowering begin!
