The Winners: Community Engagement Writing Challenge

**June 21, 2022** Time flies really fast and I didn't imagine myself staying on this platform for 2 years and counting. I hope this will last longer so this could help more people from different parts of the world financially and get more knowledge about this Cryptoverse and other aspects. The Community Engagement Writing Challenge received 26 entries and it was unexpected. As I said, you shouldn't look after the prize, but the thought of joining and sharing your readcash journey to inspire the new ones and others who never think how awesome readcash and Bitcoin Cash are. https://read.cash/@Jane/turning-2-years-old-community-engagement-writing-challenge-3bf6ebdf All entries were inspiring so far and it finds us, juries, to choose who will win. I would like to thank @PVMihalache and @emily2u for helping me curate the entries because it's definitely a tough task to handle alone. Anyway, **this isn't really a competition, but rather a writing challenge that dared to challenge writers to share their stories about the given prompts.** So there are no losers, but all winners here. Here are the entries to this challenge and I took some inspiring phrases from them. ****My Readcash Journey (Community Engagement Writing Challenge)**** https://read.cash/@Sequoia/my-readcash-journey-community-engagement-writing-challenge-3e25ead2 **By** @Sequoia *She started from a scratch with no one else to guide her but only herself and desperation to earn and provide for the family.

Quality content creator has an ability to produce a relatable, sensible, and note-taking article. In addition, you are committed and responsible to what you write.

I can't possible imagine publishing articles here and having no one read it simply because they are not familiar with you. How else can they be familiar with you if you all do not interact with them, as a community.* ****Happy Ten Months of Community Engagement**** https://read.cash/@Murakamii.7/happy-ten-months-of-community-engagement-0f76c0fc By @Murakamii.7 *Community engagement is necessary for blogging. It wouldn't be nice if nobody would read your work. So, it is vital to establish a good relationship with readers by providing them with quality content. Quality content for me leaves a mark on the readers. One which stimulates other people's feelings and emotions. It doesn't have to be highly technical. One can reach the readers' hearts by entertaining them, opening up to them and sympathising with them.* ****Staying Here For Profit Is Like A House Builds On Sand**** https://read.cash/@kingofreview/staying-here-for-profit-is-like-a-house-builds-on-sand-b3cff167 By @kingofreview *In my blogging experience, writing for sake of profit is like a house builds on sand.

Out of these entries, the top 10 that got higher scores from different juries are: **Top 1: 0.045 BCH** @Sequoia **Top 2: 0.035 BCH** @Jelena **Top 3: 0.025 BCH** @Talecharm **Top 4-5: 0.02 BCH** @Princessbusayo @Kushyzee **Top 6-10: 0.015 BCH** @LykeLyca @mommykim @Pachuchay @DennMarc @Eunoia **I added 5 more to make it Top 15 and they will receive 0.01 BCH:** @Murakamii.7 @curiouscat @Jeaneth @Yen @Esthery97 **Those below the top 15 will still receive 0.009 BCH.** While checking my SmartBCH tokens, mostly are shitcoins 😅. So I opted to chose the one that I think will rise sooner. Besides, this is the token that has the biggest percentage in my SmartBCH wallet. **All participants will receive 500 CATS each.** **The most creative one will receive Reapers NFT. And it's** @Sequoia **😊. I also find @LykeLyca's post creative, so I opted to give my Throne NFT to her.**

***Guys, don't mind the price as the market is still down. Hold them, and wait until BCH rise higher, it will worth bigger, and wait for the CATS to jump again 😉.*** ***Participants didn't include their Juungle Addresses for SLP NFTs. So it seems like they don't want to get one 😅.*** So there are no losers here. I received 26 entries, but 1 was disqualified because the author just posted her article for the sake of this challenge, but not interacting with others. This is about Community Engagement, so engaging is really necessary. A small tip was sent though as a form of appreciation. While reading different stories of these participants, you could tell how readcash and Bitcoin Cash changed their lives and perspectives. Moreover, it doesn't need excellent writing skills to create quality content. Even a simple random post that impact the readers can be considered one. Meanwhile, Community Engagement is taken for granted by others, but that's the most important tool to grow on wherever platform you are blogging. Just enjoy writing and interacting. That's how your blogging journey will be worth taking. Thank you so much to all participants, and to @emily2u for helping me curate the entries. I hope there'll be more writing challenges with prizes. Who knows? That will happen if BCH will continue to rise 😉. I'll be sending the prizes shortly after my work 😅. So wait patiently, haha. For those who didn't attach their BCH and SmartBCH addresses, kindly edit your article so I can send the rewards. Thanks
