For the past 3 days @centerlink has been doling out dividends (in the form of upvotes) to all #teamaustralia members posts, giving them strength, hope and prosperity on the SteemIT platform. Sponsorship by @centerlink ensures that every post receives a payout of some form (as per government regulations) and it generously sponsored by our very own witness @ausbitbank.

For the past 3 days, I have been supporting these handouts and sponsorship payments by joining the @centerlink curation trail. That means that every vote/handout that @centerlink gives to each #teamaustralia post also receives an upvote/handout from my account as well. 

To ensure I didn't deplete all of my voting power, I initially set my vote to 30% strength (and have since adjusted this to 20%). 

As my SP is not too high yet (aka minnow status), I won't receive any benefit in the form of curation rewards from any of the #teamaustralia posts that @centerlink posts on. However, I am not delegating my voting power to the @centerlink trail for my own benefit. I too want to see #teamaustralia go from strength to strength and believe that by voting on every #teamaustralia post, I am giving back to our community and providing that small amount of additional power to the @centerlink benefits for every member of our Aussie community!

<br>With the impending Hardfork 19 (tomorrow) occurring, it will be interesting to see how this affects the impact that @centerlink has on the posting of Australian content. HF19 will increase voting power 4x times but also reduce the number of votes that can be made before voting power is depleted. Stay tuned to this big change over the next 24-48 hours.
