<a href="https://utopian.io">Utopian.io</a> rewards Open Source contributors for their hard work. We have quite a few bounties available if you did not notice and many many things going on.

There is a **LOT** of demand regarding **Content Discovery** on the Steemit frontend. Many users complaining about the **Trending page** becoming useless. Lets fix that!

We are proposing a **100% Utopian Bot Upvote** bounty for the designer/s and developer/s who can create the best working solution to **fix the trending page on steemit/condenser**. Plus Utopian is running quite a few development streams you could be interested in, for a total of 3K bounties to be delivered.

## Steemit Trending Page

If you look at the trending page you will most likely see the same contents over and over, simply because the more SP you have the more likely you will be there. There are accounts who follow different threads, others focused on the same thread, therefore making the Trending page not appealing for readers having different interests.

## Lets Fix The Trending Page

<a href="https://utopian.io">Utopian.io</a> is running this contest to find designer/s and developer/s willing to provide a working solution to make content discovery on the trending page easier and more appealing.

The winners will receive a **100% Utopian Upvote**, worth more than **$300**.

**Utopian is for collaboration, so if you are going to work on this with more people, post one contribution only for the design and one contribution only for the development, then split the rewards and mention the people involved.**

## If You Win

The Utopian upvote is not about having only a big reward but it is also about going to the trending and show your work to the big Steemit community. The reward is a small portion of the benefit you are going to have on the long run if you win this contest.

## Rules

- If you are willing to participate to the contest, write in the comments your profession and what you are willing to do. We want to promote collaboration.

- Only push your contribution in Utopian once the work is done. For the design means when the layout is ready, for the development when the PR is submitted. We cannot guarantee the PR will be merged but it is up to you to convince the Steemit team to do so ( @sneak could be the right guy to ask for some suggestions ).

- Once done place a comment about the work completed in this post.

### Ready? GO!

## 3K Bounties in Total

If you have not noticed yet we have quite a few development streams and bounties in place.
