I noticed there was some red ink on the page... I suppose it's more or less inevitable that people will try to "take profit" from time to time. I used this development to up my own stake to 10,000 CAT... because I had some SteemP left over from buying CATS (confusing, eh?). Anyway, HODLing mine... unfortunately, my upvotes are below the dust threshold...
Something to consider from a fundraising perspective: If each of the kitten accounts made brief "status update" posts (with other cure stuff?) weekly, AND those posts were tagged with Neoxian and Palnet and perhaps Creativecoin (because this is definitely a creative endeavor!) not only would the pennies trickle in faster, but the tribal tokens wouldn't have the dust issue. Besides, right now my Steem upvote is about $.005 and (for example) my CreativeCoin upvote is about 13 tokens (about 4-5 cents); I think a LOT of people are staked in many tokens, and it all adds up!
=^..^=
The kittens are already slightly staked in PAL and CCC but I don't plan to go much further with the tribes.
I'm also not a fan of "status updates", while it's a nice way to get some posting rewards, they tend to become meaningless all too quickly and that's not something I'd want to keep doing. I'd really prefer to keep the kittens engaged in just their non-verbal cuddling exploration.
Most tribe tokens earned with the kittens are currently all flowing back to @catnet where they get turned into STEEMP mostly for real steem growth. In all honesty, all these tribes, how long will they be with us after native steem communities and SMTs become available?! I'm not very bullish about most of the side-chain-proof-of-brain tokens to be honest.
