@midlet asked and we answered!

The ranks and badges have always been a way to motivate users to power up and try to achieve objective after objective. But @midlet did have a point. Going from Plankton to Minnow only takes about 500SP but you will then need 4500 more SP to reach the dolphin rank, 45 000 for Orca and 450 000SP for Whale. Wow, that's huge and it's easy to give up on the way right?

Read on to see how we want to keep your motivation high!

These changes will be live within an hour in version 2.10.1.1

### New Features

The ranks are based on the number of VESTS (proportional to Steem Power) and are all divided in three sub-rank as follow: 

~~~~
if( vests < 333333)
    rank = 'Plankton-3';
  else if( vests < 666666)
    rank = 'Plankton-2';
  else if(vests < 1000000)
    rank = 'Plankton-1';
  else if(vests < 4000000)
    rank = 'Minnow-3';
  else if(vests < 7000000)
    rank = 'Minnow-2';
  else if(vests < 10000000)
    rank = 'Minnow-1';
  else if(vests < 40000000)
    rank = 'Dolphin-3';
  else if(vests < 70000000)
    rank = 'Dolphin-2';
  else if(vests < 100000000)
    rank = 'Dolphin-1';
  else if(vests < 400000000)
    rank = 'Orca-3';
  else if(vests < 700000000)
    rank = 'Orca-2';
  else if(vests < 1000000000)
    rank = 'Orca-1';
  else if(vests < 4000000000)
    rank = 'Whale-3';
  else if(vests < 8000000000)
    rank = 'Whale-2';
  else
    rank = 'Whale-1';
~~~~

Basically, users start as Plankton III and as they Power Up, they will make their way to Plankton II, Plankton I, Minnow III etc.

For this purpose, @fabiyamada was kind enough to edit her badges to make the 15 that we now need to display.

Additionally, @tshiuan made a whole new series of badges using Gold Silver and Bronze colors to fit the ranking.

 You can change the type of badges you use from the SteemPlus settings in the popup.

When you hover over the badge, you can see how much Steem Power is needed to `rank up`!

Hope you will enjoy it and will be motivated to Power Up! 

### Bug Fixes
There was a stupid bug in the Steem Price carousel, the links were all associated to the wrong information and this has been fixed.
Additionally , I corrected a few typos.

### Coming soon

More witness info including the following :
- List of voters, sorted by number of Vests
- Number of blocks missed
- Blocks mined per day/week/month and corresponding gain
- Witness rank

Extracting these information directly from the blockchain would take too much time, so we are considering using either SteemSQL or SteemData for this, advices are welcome!
