    Hi @majes.tytyty

    I hope you won't mind this post (it's not really related in any way to your current publication).

    I've been just wondering if you joined PALnet airdrop (PALnet is a token build on Steem-engine).

    If you didn't claim it then perhaps I could ask you for small favour. Would you consider claiming your tokens and selling or delegating it to me for few months? I would obviously pay you some STEEM for those tokens (I can even pay for delegation - I want to invest some time and money into that platform).

    How to claim your token?

    a) login in http://palnet.io/ (it's build on STEEM blockchain, so you will use same login details) b) login in steem-engine.com c) claim your tokens -> to do that you need to open steem-engine.com and go to "wallet". In left-top corner you will have PALnet (blue colour) logo. Click on it and claim your PAL tokens. d) go to your palnet wallet and either transfer your PAL tokens to crypto.piotr or STAKE it and delegate to me (click STAKE and then "advanced" and simply type in my username).

    Amount of received tokens depend mostly on your current level of SP (I'm not sure if delegations are being taken into consideration as well).

    So based on my current experience, if you have 200 STEEM POWER then you should be able to receive something around 100-150 PALnet tokens. I would pay you 10 STEEM for purchasing each 100 of those PAL tokens. So basically you can earn something and help me grow on this particular platform, making both of us happy :) Plus you would sell/delegate those tokens without bringing down their current price (you won't need to dump them on exchange).

    You would earn some extra STEEM and I would have higher STAKE in this platform.

    I've only 500 STEEM I can spent on that purpose (plus airdrop will not last forwer) so HURRY UP :) :)

    Cheers, Piotr
